Full Description

Project narrative

On December 20, 2023, the Ambassador to Montenegro and the Secretary-General of the Parliament of Montenegro hosted a handover ceremony for the donation of an electric vehicle made by the Chinese company MG Motors from the Chinese Embassy to the Montenegrin Parliament. The exact value of the vehicle is unknown, but it is estimated at roughly EUR 30,000.

Staff comments

1. MG Motor company is owned by SAIC Motor Corporation Limited, a Chinese state-owned company. 2. While the exact model and year of the donated EV is unknown, standard MG vehicles of similar body style retailed for roughly EUR 30,000 in Montenegro in 2023.
