Because MG Rover went bankrupt before, Nanqi bought MG and Rover. But only the factory and technology were obtained, but the trademark of Rover was not obtained (the trademark was in the hands of Ford, and the trademark of MG was bought. )

Because Rover's trademark is precious, it is said that Ford intends to sell this trademark to India's Tata Group (the one that bought Jaguar and Land Rover), and then Nanqi was acquired by SAIC. It became the brand of SAIC.

Actually, this is not a successful acquisition, because the old engine technology and indifferent production line and output of Rover and MG will not have much sales, and the important brand Rover has not been bought (how important is Rover? He used to be the queen's car. Land Rover used to be his brand):

Rover):Mascot (mascot) originated from the pun of the Viking, the most famous vagrant in the world. The word Rover, in English, contains the meaning of wanderer and navigator. Since 192, this sign has been placed in the front center of cars. In the 192s, the vikings wearing helmets and triangular badges attracted a generation of young people who loved Rover cars.

Later, the Viking standing in the Rover logo gradually gave way to his head, but he still wore a helmet. Accurately and logically, it is the statue of the bow of the Viking ship. The bow and sail of Viking ships first appeared on the signboard of radiator in 1929. As an auspicious symbol, it runs through the 1-year history of Rover.

On July 22nd, 25, China Nanqi acquired Rover for 5 million pounds. In 28, India's Tata Motors acquired the ownership of the Rover brand from Ford Motor Company.
