MG Select showroom in Thane, Maharastra

MG Motor has inaugurated its first ‘Select’ showroom in Thane, Maharashtra, marking the beginning of a new premium retail format for the brand. Unlike standard MG showrooms, MG Select will showcase only premium models such as the Cyberster electric sports car and the M9 electric MPV.

  1. MG Select showrooms will not carry regular MG products
  2. M9, Cyberster launch dates still unknown

MG Select: what is it?

This new showroom offers a distinct look and experience, setting it apart from MG’s conventional outlets. Similar to how Maruti Suzuki operates its Nexa and Arena showrooms separately, MG Select will function in parallel with existing MG dealerships, with no overlapping products.

For the Cyberster, which made its India debut in March 2024, MG revealed key specifications including battery, range, and powertrain details for the country-specific model, though its official launch date is still unknown.
