Among the 12 MG Motor entries in the MotorJury library, the MG 350 holds its own page in a catalogue built to record every car ever made, from series production to one-off concepts. The record places its introduction in 2010. The photography on this page is hotlinked from Wikimedia Commons under an open licence, with the photographer credited on every frame.

The era it was born into

To read the MG 350 properly it helps to place it in its decade. The 2010s were the decade electrification stopped being a science project — Tesla forced the incumbents' hand, downsized turbo engines replaced displacement, and the crossover conquered every market. Any car launched into that world was shaped by it — by what materials, engineering and regulation allowed, and by what buyers of the day demanded. Its direct contemporaries in this catalogue, introduced within three years of it, include the Jeep Jeep Grand Cherokee, the Nissan Nissan Leaf, the Lexus Lexus LFA — the cars a buyer of the period would actually have cross-shopped.

The numbers, read closely

On paper, the MG 350 reads like this: the record lists its engine as 1.5 L I4 (petrol) / 2.0 L I4 (turbo petrol); drive goes through 6-speed Manual transmission / manual / 5-speed Manual transmission / manual / 6-speed Automatic transmission / automatic / 5-speed Automatic transmission / automatic / 4-speed Auto; the layout is FF layout. Every figure above is a manufacturer specification carried by the Wikipedia infobox or the open Wikidata record for this model — nothing on this page is estimated, and where a source is silent the row simply does not appear.

Its place in the MG Motor story

Within MG Motor's own catalogue the MG 350 sits alongside the MG 6, the MG Cyberster, the MG E-Motion, the MG GS. The record names the successor = Roewe 360 as its predecessor and the Roewe 360 as its successor, fixing its place in the model line's chronology. Assembly is recorded at China: Pukou, Nanjing.

How this catalogue works

This library is generated, verified and rebuilt from the open record on every deploy. The catalogue skeleton comes from Wikidata, specifications from Wikipedia's infoboxes under CC BY-SA, photography from Wikimedia Commons under each file's own licence, and the ownership data from United States federal safety records. Nothing is written by hand and nothing is invented: every fact on this page traces to a public source, and every page is rebuilt nightly as those sources improve. Errors in the source record will appear here too — and disappear the night the source is corrected.

Why concepts and prototypes are in the library

Most car databases stop at series production. This one deliberately does not, because concept cars, racing specials and cancelled prototypes are where the industry thinks out loud — the ideas tested in public years before they reach a showroom. Holding them beside the production cars they inspired makes the lineage legible: nearly every landmark road car in this library has a concept ancestor somewhere in the catalogue, and the connections run through the era links on every page.

From catalogue to ownership

A specification sheet is only half a car's story. The other half — what breaks, what it costs to keep, which years to avoid — lives in MotorJury's ownership database, computed nightly from federal complaint and recall records and EPA economy data. Where the MG 350 was sold in the United States, its model years carry full ownership verdicts there.
