A NEW name for MG is now operating in Huddersfield, with independent dealer group Perrys opening an MG franchise in the busy West Yorkshire town.

The new dealership is situated on Northgate, close to the town centre, and offers an indoor showroom including sales, aftersales and used car facilities, as well as EV charging facilities and a wide range of customer choice.

This new addition complements Perrys’ other sites across Yorkshire’s largest town, which has a population of over 160,000, and is strategically positioned in one of the most densely populated parts of the UK.

Steve Vickers, General Manager at Perrys, said: “MG offers great value cars that are good quality, well-equipped and backed by the reassurance of a brilliant seven-year warranty. The brand is also one of the fastest-growing electric car brands in the UK and is a perfect fit for our portfolio.”

MG Motor is gearing up to increase its network to 130 dealers by the end of 2021, with an additional new Perrys MG site in Preston also joining its roster of dealers this year. With a range now encompassing six models and a rapidly growing reputation for offering affordable EVs for everyone, MG has seen 28 new sites join its network in the past 12 months.

MG Motor’s Commercial Director, Guy Pigounakis, said: “As the UK’s fastest-developing car brand, the appointment of Perrys in Huddersfield is a key strategic development to further awareness and sales of MG in West Yorkshire, via a trusted independent dealer group that is already well-established in the region. It’s further proof that MG is a highly desirable franchise thanks to great value cars that are great to drive, packed with technology and backed by a 7-year warranty.

“We’re delighted to welcome Perrys of Huddersfield to the MG Motor network.”

MG currently offers six models in the UK including three plug-in cars – the established MG ZS EV, the game-changing All New MG5 EV and MG HS Plug-in, all backed up by MG’s incredible 7 year warranty and fast-developing dealer network.
