Kaban, who brings with him a wealth of experience and innovation, will be instrumental in shaping and developing MG’s global design language. Jozef Kaban graduated from the Royal College of Art in London in 1997, specialising in transportation design.

At the heart of this effort will be the R&D Innovation Headquarters of SAIC Motor, the parent company of MG Motor.
Here, Kaban will oversee advanced creativity and product design, contributing to the development of groundbreaking models such as the MG Cyberster and the MG EXE181. The design centre, renowned for its cutting-edge design capabilities, is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of automotive innovation and bringing visionary ideas to life.
What’s more, Tom Lee, Managing Director of MG Motor Middle East, expressed enthusiasm about the appointment, emphasising the importance of design in customer purchasing decisions.
