MG to Unveil Production‑Bound Subcompact EV and Design Vision at Goodwood

The Goodwood reveal signals MG’s push into Europe’s crowded B‑segment electric market.

Overview

  • MG confirmed it will publicly unveil two electric concepts at the Goodwood Festival of Speed on July 9, 2026, with Global Design VP Jozef Kaban scheduled to do the presentation.
  • One concept is a production‑intent B‑segment electric hatch expected to join MG’s range in 2027 and provisionally linked to the MG2 name by the company and reporters.
  • Teaser images released by MG show a rounded, grille‑less front, detailed LED headlights, a pronounced roof spoiler and an MG badge on the C‑pillar, indicating the car’s compact, city‑oriented design.
  • MG will run live hill‑climb demonstrations with current models including the MGS9 PHEV, MGS6 EV and Cyberster and will stage interactive exhibits and robot displays at its Goodwood stand.
  • The new small EV is being pitched to compete with established B‑segment models such as the Renault 5 E‑Tech, VW ID. Polo and Peugeot E‑208 and could influence MG’s pricing and range strategy in Europe if it targets the roughly €20,000 city‑EV bracket.
