    If they could promise to make these in Longbridge, would SAIC be in line for some of our wonga? Wink

    Also, I think even Superman would struggle to get all that into a "booth". I think we now know that the word for "stand" in Chinese is similar to "booth"(!) Wink

    SAIC @ Shanghai Auto Show W020090409362863124801

    Shanghai Automotive's new pattern of brand marketing

    ■ Push 3G Rongwei N1 concept cars in order to change the "network"

    ■ Show the new MG MG6 coupe with the "digital" Renaissance


    The Shanghai Auto Show will see the remodeling of the SAIC MG, Roewe dual brand identity and the launching of their first "world car" evolution.
    China is now the world's auto market last a life-saving straw, China's automobile market in March is still making great strides. Following the record 2008 sales, the FAW-VW Audi brand in March reached the highest single month sales record. In addition, Beijing Hyundai saw an increase of 70% for the month once again setting the highest single month sales record.

    Auto Show in Detroit and Geneva Motor Show are depressed, the Shanghai Auto Show 2009 is expected to become the largest international auto show. The China Morning Post noted that the forthcoming opening of the Shanghai International Auto Show, Shanghai Automotive will announce a new pattern of brand marketing. Roewe brand which will be located in the "network of life vehicle", and the MG brand will introduce a number of subversive world cars including the MG6.

    Rongwei - the promotion of "vehicle life networks"

    Roewe brand Roewe 550 has set a successful "digital car" image, the Shanghai Automotive has been the most competitive in the A-class car to win a share of market success, and greatly enhanced with the "digital generation" of consumers to communicate confidence. Faced with such a good situation, in this new evolution of the brand, Roewe will introduce the concept of N1 vehicles in order to "explore the future of life on the demand for motor vehicles" as the goal to promote life vehicle networks.
    With the release of the N1 Concept car, showing SAIC Roewe's outstanding R & D strength, but also to convey the brand Roewe "grade science and technology" for the development direction for the life science and technology, and practical technology to show the future trend of business-to-grasp, while the product the competitiveness of the system to show the competitiveness of Shanghai. SAIC said the leadership of the Post: "NI release of concept cars also reflects the SAIC Roewe brand for the confidence and the market reflects the Roewe confidence."

    MG into the "digital car" market

    Compared to the Roewe "vehicle life web" position changes, MG in this year's changes will be the greater. A SAIC factory manager said the change is perhaps for the brand not what people have expected! After the market and the media spread hatchback version of the Roewe 550 photoshop image, this is not accurate, and should belong to this new MG brand. He said, MG was born in 1924 as the MG brand, like the Jaguar, Bentley, Aston Martin, Lotus and other brands, in the United Kingdom has a long and ancient history. In the MG 85 birthday, introduce a new product through the past to reshape the brand image, this product is MG6. SAIC will declare the car after 12 months after the integration of the Nanjing Automobile Coorporation, has created a brilliant record of MG sports car championship in Shanghai, the full vehicle escorted by a formal opening of the prelude to the brand revival.

    Said the factory in Shanghai, the world's first auto show of the MG 6, with the Roewe 550 platform from the same Chassis - W261, is in accordance with the Shanghai Automotive "integrated global resource development, global market-oriented" concept and the criteria for the development of the first "SAIC world car" (SAIC Motor World Car). The launch of this car is the SAIC for "next generation" of consumers to create "next generation" products.

    MG Digital MG6 global luxury sports car uses the world famous Italian design elements of the Fast back, the luxury brand to break the monopoly on this design. The so-called "FastBack", is a prominent feature of the roof to the rear of a coherent, streamlined design, is the major vehicle used more wealthy car design trend of the 21st century, in the Bentley Continental GT, Mercedes-Benz CLS, BMW 645Ci, Ferrari 612 Scaglietti, such as the car has "FastBack" shadow design. MG6 fully reflects the available SAIC integrated global resources to develop the capacity, at the same time, it will sell for a global market, which is based on China's SAIC to represent their own brands to the global automotive products market in the first.

    Expert analysis, as both MG and Roewe two strong brands in Shanghai England style cars, to avoid duplication after the brand-name products to enhance the effective integration of resources and rapid development of new brand positioning, brand marketing for SAIC strategy to inject new vitality.

    I really like the New MG6 Concept and the new pictures only strengthen my love for the car. I'm hoping that some production will take place in the UK. Do you reckon there will be an announcement relating to that at Shanghai?

    They will be asked the question, they need to have some sort of answer!

    Also, if thay are going to focus their marketing on the "world car" and global sales, global production is part of the story. If Longbridge is not mentioned then suspicions will be aroused - they will need to comit.

    It was a 30 year lease so there isn't a good time to pull out of it!

    Besides, they have just moved their technical centre in and made a big investment in the facilities, they are already commited to the Longbridge site. The only thing they haven't commited to is a date when mass production will return.

    well, we know that MG Motor have had plans for up to five separate models to be assembled at Longbridge.

    We know that the market has seriously fallen out of bed.

    We know that a high percentage of the vehicle parts will be sourced from China.

    As for scale, we know that MG Motor's slice of Longbridge is only a part of what went before - 20%? And I believe the Austin had e.g. a foundry which I think MG Motor does not.

    We also know that the sterling now has the approximate international buying power of the button which may - along with higher transport costs from China - speak for more work in the UK.

    Fingers crossed! Reading these press releases about the MG6, they seem far more positive than British ones about English heritage. Hooray!

    Looking around, the MG6 reminds me of Audis and Mazdas - both the "more sporting premium" face of another brand (Volkswagen and Ford)...

    Should we understand "MG Digital" as being the sort of car Jackie Chan (Hi-Tech out of Cannonball Run) would drive?

    (Ooh! I love MGs, me!)

    From an interview with Chen Hong:


    Chen Hong said that SAIC does not have plans for the acquisition of U.S. group General Motors.

    There are no plans for a Hong Kong listing.

    SAIC is not prepared to buy a foreign car company.

    At present, due to the weak automotive market in Europe and America, has resulted in the temporary closure of factories in the United Kingdom.

    SAIC is the focusing on the current A-share listed company's governance structure improvement.

    As for the acquisition of Chrysler, he said that SAIC did not take this into consideration.

    The current focus is to expand domestic market share.

    I imagine he is just refering to the lack of the standard edition MG TF, bit worrying but he does use the word "temporary".

    We need to wait for the details of the MG6 to find out more, but it does sound like there may be a delay to its introduction to Longbridge.

    I thought that NAC used the brand "Phoenix" (EDIT it was SAIC - thanks Windy) but it's a dangerous name to use around MG... or does he mean the Fiery Phoenix from Battle of the Planets?

    Not forgeting that in 2008 he, along with Mr Hu from SAIC, won the Automotive Personality of the year award.

    Actually, it was SAIC who used the Phoenix brand so for NAC to soar with the Phoenix is what is about to happen. Obviously Mr Wang has great expectations for the future and when Wang Hao speaks, like the snake eating the elephant, things often turn out even more remarkable than his words suggest!
