The partnership was officially unveiled with the inauguration of 10 destination charging stations across key cities such as Lucknow, Trivandrum, and Cochin.
As part of the collaboration, MG Motor will leverage IONAGE’s advanced e-mobility platform to provide seamless access to EV owners of MG Charge points.

Vimal Kumar, CEO of IONAGE, said, “We are excited to partner with a tech-driven, futuristic brand like MG and expand our footprints to destination properties. The IONAGE platform will also serve as a smart mobility assistant for Electric Car Operators and Owners, offering a seamless, intelligent, and emission-free driving and transactional experience. As the transition to electric mobility accelerates, both companies are committed to leading the way and enabling a greener and more sustainable future.”
MG Motors India said the partnership will give a further boost to its goal to install 1000 EV chargers in 1000 days across the country under its MG Charge program.
