Mention ‘MG’, and many still imagine an open-topped sports car with popping exhaust – even though Chinese firm Nanjing Automobile Group bought the rights to the marque in 2005. Its biggest sellers lately have been popular family SUVs, mostly EVs.
MG did recently re-introduce a sporty open-top, the £54,995 Cyberster which, like most of the range, is electric, alongside a fully electric estate car and a newly-introduced electric ‘hot hatch’. But MG’s offering has for some time been dominated by models such as the ZS EV SUV.
