AutoExec Summary

Chinese car maker MG has shown its support for the Australian Government’s proposed emissions targets for new vehicles without calling for modifications. With a strong focus on electric cars and plug-in hybrid sales, MG is Australia’s third-biggest seller in this category. Toyota, Nissan, Isuzu, and Mitsubishi, known for high-pollution vehicles, have called for weaker standards. Hyundai and Volkswagen, on the other hand, support the government’s preferred version of the New Vehicle Efficiency Standard. MG Australia plans to introduce hybrid or electric versions of all its cars, with new models like the MG 3 city hatch hybrid and existing electric options like MG 4 and ZS EV.
