MG previews 2024 models

There’s more reason to look into MG cars next year as SAIC Motor Philippines, distributor of MG cars in the country gave a preview of some new models we can expect. The vehicles include a new convertible sports car and a crossover SUV.

MG Cyberster EV

Easily the scene stealer among the two is the MG Cyberster EV. This fully-electric convertible sports car promises style, speed, and sustainable mobility.

The MG Cyberster comes with a soft top convertible. For added flair, it also boasts of automatic scissor doors that open up like a high-end Lamborghini. It all comes with full LED lighting, partilarly large arrow-shaped taillights.

Inside, the vehicle features terra cotta leather upholstery. The driver gets three LCD screens that combine to form a panoramic display for all the vital vehicle and trip information. There’s also a smaller portrait-oriented LCD screen in the center console for climate controls and entertainment.

It produces as much as 544-PS along with a massive 725-Nm of torque thanks to a pair of electric motors. This allows the Cyberster to rocket from 0 – 100 km/h in just 3.2 seconds. It’s also equipped with a large 77 kWh battery pack that should give it anywhere from 400-500-km of range from a full charge.

The MG Cyberster will be coming to the Philippines in the first half of 2024. It will be launched at quite the auspicious occasion: the automaker’s 100th anniversary.

MG One crossover

A more practical vehicle also on display was the MG One compact crossover.

This vehicle is built on MG’s sigma platform and is powered by an internal combustion engine (ICE) for a change. This shows that MG is not about to abandon ICE power just yet and hopes to follow up on its successful entry into the country with another SUV.

The MG One features a wide front grille with broad LED headlights. It also features a protruding grille like the MG GT sporty sedan.

Inside, the MG One features dual screens on the dashboard – one for the instruments and the other for the infotainment system. A D-shaped steering wheel accentuates the MG One’s sporty cabin.

Powering the MG One is a 1.5-liter, four-cylinder turbo engine that produces 181 horsepower. In the lineup, the MG One will be positioned below the MG HS. As such, interested buyers can expect it to be priced between P 1.3 to 1.5 million.

Like the Cyberster, the MG One is planned to be launched sometime in the first half of 2024. MG has yet to reveal the actual price and will release more information in the coming months.
