CMoreover, the stunning electric roadster from the MG Motor brand under the Chinese flag is moving further away from the British genes widely claimed by its marketing offensive. And it was a stroke of luck for him, as he developed a coherent range, something the British MGs had never been able to do. Expanding your offering means increasing your appeal and reaching a wider audience, a truth that some people sometimes ignore. Ford is an example, or even Stellantis, with its 14 brands that don’t all fit in the same bucket.
MG, for its part, followed strict logic and built up the European garage by filling it with new models. This is not the most important thing, but it sets up a high-end market movement that will allow retaining the customers already acquired by the brand. This confirms the launch of the new MGS6 EV on 1uh quarter 2026 at a price that is still unknown, but could be announced as competitive. Although there is an ultra-thin 77 kWh “One Pack” battery (110 mm horizontal cells) which would be the reason for taxation in Europe. Like all 100% electric MGs, the MGS6 EV has been awarded 5 Euro NCAP stars.
Since electric mechanics allow it easily, two versions will be offered, rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive. The MGS6 EV is a roomy SUV with a length of 4.71m that offers optimal comfort for its passengers with excellent leg and shoulder room. On the other hand, a large, sports car-style center console separates heated and ventilated front seats as standard across the board.
Electrical modularity enables the use of MSP (Modular Scalable Platform) for the fourth time with the advantages it represents. Expanded for needs, it offers a boot volume of 493 liters, expandable to 1,910 liters. A “frunk”, namely the front trunk, provides an additional 124 liters (102 liters on the twin engine), which is useful for storing charging cables.
Electrical ambiguity
The MGS6 EV Luxury is equipped with a single engine with an output of 244 hp (180 kW) and offers a combined WLTP range of 530 km. The Dual Motor version with all-wheel drive can count on 361 hp (266 kW) and significantly improves road performance from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.1 seconds. Autonomy officially suffers slightly at 485 km WLTP, no doubt much less in real life.

Answer
Both versions can be recharged from 10 to 80% in 38 minutes using public fast charging stations. Five driving modes and five energy recovery modes, including a “One Pedal” mode, are offered to drivers who will certainly find a pleasant reason but also a strong incentive not to use all the power in favor of preserving autonomy, all the ambiguity of electricity.
Interestingly, with the advantage of electricity, Continental was asked to develop together with MG a reinforced braking system, the large front and rear discs making it possible to stop the lightest version from 100 km/h to a complete stop in 36 meters. A final point, the very conservative styling doesn’t take a risk on a model that really blends into traffic, unlike the very original and successful Cyberster. These two extreme vehicles show the extent of MG’s capabilities and the realism that was sorely lacking in previous MGs.
