MG unveils two concept cars at Goodwood Festival of Speed 2026, UK

Taking MG’s sporty heritage even further, the MG Cyber Concept is a bold exploration of what a future D-segment performance SUV can become in the electric era. It reflects a broader vision for MG’s future, one where performance is not confined to a specific body style but can be experienced across a wider range of vehicles and lifestyles.

Together, these two concepts demonstrate the full breadth of MG's engineering vision and technological competence: bringing its sporty heritage into something exceptional for the future – and for everyone.

MG GO!

As a compact B segment battery electric hatchback, the MG GO! explores a retro futuristic idea informed by some of MG's most youthful and expressive designs from the mid-20^th century. MG’s British identity and spirit has been reinterpreted for a new generation with the MG GO! as a preview of a future compact hatchback due in 2027.

The concept, along with the forthcoming production model, have been designed entirely by the team at MG Design Centre in London, led by Design Director, Carl Gotham. However, from the outset, the intention was never to create a nostalgic showpiece, but something contemporary and relevant: a compact car with genuine emotional appeal, conceived to stand apart in a highly competitive segment – to be poised, playful and immediately engaging.

The design language is deliberately simple, built around a small number of key elements that reflect qualities always admired in MG's classic designs, especially the MGB GT - a car that embodied everyday elegance, joy and presence without excess.

At the same time, MG GO! is not just a retro exercise but intended to stand on its own, with an identity that acknowledges the past while feeling entirely at ease in today's automotive landscape. That does not mean sentimentality; it means designing a car evocative enough to form an emotional connection.

MG Cyber Concept

Conceived as a flagship expression of the MG brand, the Cyber Concept previews a future model in the large SUV, D-segment. It draws inspiration from two defining chapters in MG’s history: the relentless pursuit of speed embodied by the legendary EX181 land speed record car and the spirit of innovation and reinvention that continues to shape MG today.

Cyber extends that philosophy into a new territory. As a large, high performance electric SUV, it combines the versatility and practicality expected by modern customers with the emotional appeal, dynamic character and sense of occasion traditionally associated with sports cars.

The core idea behind Cyber is performance without compromise. It seeks to unite everyday usability with genuine driving enjoyment, creating a vehicle equally suited to urban environments, long distance journeys and engaging roads. In doing so, it reflects a belief that driving pleasure should remain relevant, accessible and rewarding in every aspect of modern mobility.
