offshoring includes a lot of things, let's get more specific. Would you agree that American car manufacturers putting their factories in Mexico border cities, in stead of in the US, is primarily for cheap labor?

good question! cheap labour definitely seems to be the major factor:

but also skilled labour, and free trade agreements that make it a convenient intermediary for other countries like Japan and China:

Mexico attracts foreign automakers through low labor costs, low energy costs, free trade agreements, and other incentives, and then uses US-made parts to build these vehicles. [link]

The country's strategic location, skilled workforce, and favorable trade agreements have made it an attractive destination for automakers seeking to expand their reach and optimize their processes. ... One of Mexico's most significant advantages lies in its abundant supply of skilled labor. The workforce is well-trained, adaptable, and capable of handling complex manufacturing processes. Furthermore, compared to labor costs in developed countries, Mexican labor is more cost-competitive, providing substantial savings to manufacturing companies. [link]

Since June 2022, 29 Chinese auto parts manufacturers and car makers like native brand Chery and MG Motors (SAIC Motors of Shanghai bought the iconic British car company in 2007) have announced a combined $7.06 billion in investments in Mexico. Of the $14.2 billion in Chinese corporate investment in Mexico in 2022 and 2023, for example, a little less than half came from companies that make cars and car parts, based on a collection of local news articles and data from J.P. Morgan analysts led by Rebecca Wen. [link]

Mexico appears to have much more balanced trade than countries like Germany, Japan, and China that run perpetual surpluses, so offshoring US manufacturing to Mexico should boost growth in both countries as its imports rise in tandem with its exports.

Take this as permission to ramble about an oc <3

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY CASSIE TIME

every1 look @ her outfits........ if u dont want to read th worlds longest oc lore dump u can go in #party rat, #cassie, or #boss cass and learn literally everything u need 2 know abt her frm context clues

SO THATS CASSIEEE my mgs oc ✨ aka cassandra aka cass aka party rat aka my baby

looong story short she was your classic mgs child soldier with a streak of bad luck until she tried to KILL big boss in the late 1960s. she was one of the first poor bastards he took under his wing and following the dubiously canon events of the san hieronymo incident she became one of the original members of the foxhound unit: solitary shrike.

obviously that code name sucks ASS and honestly so did she; she was moody, rude, violent and didnt work well with others. absolutely no joy or whimsy until she met some british asshole named lance hewitt, codename bengal tiger, and got paired up with him. they proceeded to survive a catastrophic near death mission that changed the trajectories of their lives FOREVER on account of they emerged from it so ride or die for each other that they began matching each others freak to an inadvisable degree.

she changed her name (surprise her given name isnt cassandra. only 3 people in the whole world know what it used to be and im not one of those people) and her code name to reflect the "new her" she wanted to cultivate after facing death, branding herself "party rat." the goal? fill whatever life she had left with as much joy, love & fun as she possibly could. she was going to sing as loud as she wanted, dance as wild as she felt like, and finally stop holding herself back from fully connecting with the people around her. to solidify this, as well as to show her complete and utter over the top devotion to him, she took on lances last name, finally becoming the cassandra hewitt we all know + love

now a member of the MSF cass works as an engineer sergeant, chief mechanic, & generally invents a bunch of highly questionable weapons and machines. she also operates on the field as a demolitions expert for her squad, which grows to include an absolute dickhead named joaquin gutierrez, or mangey jackal. though she tries to embrace her new party spirit and the "peace and love" vibes of the time, he singles out bengal for some intensive one on one training and eventually pushes him to the point of breaking, making cass snap and quite literally bite his ear off. but like. he was fine. and everyone got better. and she taught him how to do the hustle as a peace offering. nothing a little disco cant fix.

back to the Plot: she eventually gets wrapped up in the creation of metal gear zeke, and was one of the weak points exploited by paz that allowed her to hijack it later on. she meets her canonical end during the ground zeroes incident, dying alone in the lower levels after sending her squadmates ahead to buy time. she blowed up </3

in alternate timelines where she survives she loses her left arm and occasionally her leg below the knee as well. as a sole survivor she becomes tangled in a web between big boss, zero, and cipher, creating a PMC of her own in order to pick up the pieces and continue the legacy left to her. she also begins raising the clone sons of her late best friend as her own but THATS neither here nor there <- dont even worry about it if the others survive she manages to slip from the attention of the higher ups and settles on creating a relief network with amanda valenciano libre, an old friend from her time in the msf. no matter what, cass maintains a stubborn belief that unless shes seen the bodies of her friends theyre still alive, which means she cant rest until shes found them. even if it takes Nine Years

ANYWAYS LIKE. tldr: shes like if pinkie pie had a party cannon that killed people for realsies

• Ken Miles was born on November 1st of 1918 in Sutton Coldfield, England. During his early life he apprenticed at a British car manufacturer. During World War II, he worked in various duties that dealt with machinery and utilized his mechanical skills. He began motorcycle racing while in the service and this would continue after his tour. After World War II, he returned to the automobile industry and to automotive racing. He acquired a Frazer-Nash racer and installed a Ford V8-60 engine. It had mile success in local and club competition.

• In 1952 Ken Miles came to the United States where he accepted a position as service manager for an MG distributor in California. Later, he would became involved with a wide range of teams and races and have a profound influence on early American road racing. His skills as a driver and fabricator quickly evolved and he became legendary on the West Coast with his competitive Specials.

• Miles first racer (that he constructed) was in 1953, while working for Gough Industries. He had been racing MG TD's for Gough, but they were often outclassed by the competition. Gough helped Miles with creating a racer, though he was unable to provide cash. What Gough did provide was use of any MG or Morris and any stock spare part.

• Miles began work on the MG R-1. The frame was created from mild steel tubing and attached to MG Series "Y" independent front suspension. The rear was comprised of a live axle. Alfin aluminum drum brakes with two-wheel cylinders were used to provide the stopping power while a Morris Minor rack-and-pinion kept the vehicle in the drivers control.

• Under the hood was an experimental racing engine that had a 1466cc displacement size. The engine would later be used by MG for their MG TF 1500. The engine had twin SU carburetors and a 10.5:1 initial compression ratio. The compression ratio was later increased to 11.6:1. The 83 horsepower engine was mated to a stock MG TD transmission which sent the power to the rear wheels.

• The car was clothed in a hand-formed aluminum body. The overall weight of the vehicle was less than 1,230 pounds. The car made its inaugural appearance in 1953 at a rainy Pebble Beach. The car had not been tested but this did not seem to matter, as it emerged victorious. Throughout the next year, the car would win all of the races it was entered, except for two. Its racing career came to an end in 1954 at Pebble Beach, when it suffered mechanical difficulties and failed to finish the race. The flywheel bolts fractures which allowed the flywheel to come loose. This resulted in the engine over-revving and it threw a rod. The R-1 Miles Special's racing career had come to an end.

• The second Miles Special racer was constructed in similar fashion to the first, but incorporated many key mechanical and design changes. Many MG components were still utilized, such as the gearbox and 1466cc MG XPEG engine. The space frame chassis was constructed from one-inch steel tubing which was lighter than its predecessor, but still retained the structural rigidity. To reduce frontal area, the driving position was lowered by nearly four inches. Other techniques were used to reduce the frontal area. The engine was tilted down in the front which did much to achieve this goal.

• The car was narrow and low, which meant changes were needed to fit all the engine components in the engine bay. The MG intake manifolds were installed upside down which allowed the carburetors to be angled and fit under the hood. The design of the vehicle was similar to the MG TF. This was done for brand recognition and to help promote the MG line of vehicles. There were differences; the R-2 had an envelope body with fenders that flared up, and over, the front and rear wheels. In the front was an MG style grille with headlights on either side. The car was finished in British racing green.

• The car was given the nickname, the Flying Shingle. Its inaugural race was in 1955 at Willow Springs. It failed to finish the race. Many of the other races in which it entered, it emerged victorious. Among its accomplishments were first place finishes at Pebble Beach and Torrey Pines. Miles was doing well in small-bore racing, but the competition was consistently keeping pace. Soon, a new machine was needed.

• Miles acceptable a position at Johnny Von Neumann's Porsche dealership. He raced during the 1956 season in a Porsche 550 Spyder and began work on a new racing Special. With von Neumann providing a generous budget, and Porsche providing ample stock components, Miles was able to construct a proper, large-budget racer. Power came from a Porsche Carrera four-cam engine that displaced 1500cc. The chassis was a Cooper Bobtail with a modified nose. The suspension was an independent setup with drums in the front and rear. The body shell was constructed of aluminum which aided greatly in the vehicles low weight of just under 950 pounds.

• Near the close of 1956, the newly created Special was brought to Pomona where it was piloted by Miles to a second place finish. At Paramount Ranch, the car was driven to a class win in the 1500cc class, and beat-out the big-bore modified class as well. The car was raced in 1956 and for part of 1957 before the von Neumann dealership was given the break they had been desperately searching for - a Porsche 550A. The car was supplied from the factory with orders to sell the R-3 Pooper Special. The R-1, R-2, and R-3 are still in existence in modern times. They are used in vintage competition and are shown at events.

• Ken Miles life came to a tragic end on August 17th, 1966 while driving a Ford J-car prototype. The car was traveling at 175 mph on a back-strech. Ken began preparing for a corner, slowing the vehicle down, but it went out of control and over an embankment. Ken was thrown from the car as it spun and went end-over-end. This tragedy brought an end to a brilliant career that began during the very early 1950s.

Daily Forza Car #24: POWERRRRRRRRRR

(Guess who remembered there's a lightbox in the studio?)

Ohh hohoho boy, the MG XPower SV. Probably the coolest thing MG has put out in the past 20 years, coolest thing since the Metro 6R4 probably. Based upon the work of some long forgotten Italian brand named "Qvale," who's only car was originally a De Tomaso (which would've sold better if it stayed that way), combined with some ALL AMERICAN FORD MUSTANG PARTS, YEAAHAHAHAH BABY. It's probably the last British muscle car ever made, and the first one since the like, 70's Aston V8.

And god DAMN is it good looking. This is probably my favorite design from MG past the 60's, and that is quite the statement I know. But it is just so... experimental. So unorthodox for such a milquetoast brand that currently shits out rebadged cars from China. So, yknow, an average modern day British marque that isn't owned by VW or Mercedes. Or whoever owns Aston.

Probably the biggest shame about this car is how insanely rare this thing is. There's exactly ONE (1) in the US, and we ain't seeing more for another like 10 years. There's only 70 or so that exist to begin with, so they'll be going for hundreds of thousands too. And it is a genuine shame it sold so poorly. Jeremy Clarkson gave a stellar review of it, it went like water off a duck's back, and it was interesting as all hell. I guess that's what happens when a weird brand puts out a sports/muscle car 3 years before a recession, though.

[wolfman-al]

This one surprised me a little. I thought MG was defunct, but here is a seemingly new MG SUV. I had to google this. Appearantly the original company is indeed defunct since 2005, but a chinese car company bought the brand rights and produces MG cars now. So this is not a british car but a chinese. What a betrayal.

New MG4 review: Volkswagen MUST respond!

Auto Express

The new 2022 MG4 is a wake up call for electric car makers.  (..)  This is British brand MG’s ‘ID.’ moment. While the Chinese-owned firm has dabbled with EVs in the past – including the impressive affordable ZS crossover and MG5 estate – this MG4 family hatchback is where the company’s push with its next generation of models really begins. That’s why, in almost every sense, you can see parallels with Volkswagen’s ID.3 – hence this being a crucial car for MG. For a start, both models are competing in the same sector and aiming for the same buyers: everyone from city dwellers to families who might use the MG4 as a second car, as well as company car drivers keen to cut their Benefit-in-Kind tax bill. There are even more similarities when you analyse the key figures. The MG4 EV is based on an all-new platform for the brand, called MSP, which stands for Modular Scalable Platform. Like the ID.3, it employs a rear-mounted motor producing 200bhp, which is fed by a 64kWh battery in this top-spec Trophy Long Range version for a claimed range of 270 miles. Opt for the more affordable SE Long Range and this increases to 281 miles. Meanwhile, all MG4s have 150kW rapid charging, so a 10-80 per cent top-up for the bigger battery takes 35 minutes. Use a 7kW home wallbox and it’ll take nine hours to fully replenish. As Nicola Hume finds out, the MG4 is a credible EV competitor, irrespective of the low asking price(..).

P.S.  Volkswagen's engineers, accountants, shareholders and labor union need to go home and rethink a bit about how VW builds electric cars and why they are so overpriced...Electric cars actually have far fewer mechanical parts than ICE vehicles, and many manufacturing processes can be automated and assembly labor reduced. It's increasingly starting to look like legacy automakers whining about the cost of producing electric cars and the endless justifications for high prices are complete bullshit...

MG Gears Up for 2025 with New Car Model Launches in Indonesia

According to MG Motor Indonesia-the British automobile brand, really big plans of the Indonesian auto sector in 2025 are underway. The company stated that new models of technology innovation and expansion towards electric vehicles and hybrid products will be the new departure for the company. However, the company set its sights on sustainable mobility, together with versatile car lines as the growth pillars. He Guowei, Chief Executive Officer at MG Motor Indonesia, said that through the launch, the company was pushing to the creation of the Indonesian automotive market.

Breathing Grows in the Electric Vehicle Sector: MG4 EV Depowered with Advanced Battery

The introduction of the MG4 EV by MG comes as one step ahead to what already launched electric vehicle the brand currently touts. He Guowei confirmed the 2025 model that would feature a 64 kW battery capacity, improving it from the current 51 kW. He did not entirely disclose information on the mileage of the new MG4 EV, but the current range is very impressive at 425 km as measured by the NEDC standard.

For MG customers, electric mobility solutions will be practical and environmentally friendly. Efficiency in its battery for MG4 EV will lift up range but with it more appeal for longer drives within the brand messages of efficiency and performance.

MG5 GT Facelift 2025 Edition

Besides the electric version, the company has also announced that the face-lift version of the much-in-demand MG5 GT sedan will arrive soon. Actually, it is more refined in terms of design compared to the former one. Its length, however, is a bit more than that of the former. So there is extra room inside it for the travelers to create comfort for both the driver and the passengers.

Plentiful novelties abound for the interior of the facelifted MG5 GT. And firstly and foremostly, of course, there's a fully renewed cockpit, split into two parts: one screen for the head unit and another for the instrument panel. In this way, users will have access to entertainment content as well as information on the vehicle. The fact that most of its functions have controls integrated into the head unit makes the design of the dashboard considerably easier and better.

New models at GIIAS 2025

Then, on its stride to innovate, MG would wish to show even more models during GIIAS 2025. These include the newest updates of the MG5 GT as well as new SUVs that the company believes are more alternatives for Indonesian consumers. Though details about the versions remain undisclosed, it can be understood that MG would want to fill the gap in the SUV segment since the segment is still highly popular in Indonesia.

PHEV and MPV to Upgrade the Product Line of MG

MG's other plans for 2025 include a launch of a PHEV, presumably under the S5. This is part of a larger group strategy in pursuit of customers who require something more than traditional internal combustion engine vehicles but also need hybrid efficiency.

On top of all this, the company also plans to make inroads in the MPV (Multi-Purpose Vehicle) space, though specific models available and whether BEV or ICE variants are not sure to happen from here. However, in Indonesia, where as a country it is increasingly looking for MPVs, families as well as businesses appreciate its space and flexibility.
