MG shows future direction with Cyber and GO! concepts at Goodwood Festival

The MG Cyber Concept previews the brand's future design direction for SUVs.

While MG is firmly under the control of Chinese auto giant SAIC, the brand certainly hasn’t forgotten its British roots and what better way to showcase its two latest Euro-focused concepts than a debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.

MG used the world’s largest garden party to pull the wraps off two new electric concept cars over the weekend, with the new MG GO! and MG Cyber design studies pointing the way forward for the brand.

MG says its Cyber Concept is a “bold exploration of what a future D-segment performance SUV can become in the electric era.”

Essentially it previews a future model in the company’s large SUV line-up, while drawing some inspiration from the company’s EX181 land speed record car from the 1950s.
