MG to Unveil Urban SUV Concept Car at Shanghai Show
A new MG urban SUV concept car will be unveiled at the Shanghai Motor Show. It will be the world premiere of the MG CS concept, designed to slot into the compact SUV sector, one of the fastest growing areas of the global automotive market where style and sports utility dominate fashion trends.
It’s the latest result of a massive investment in the brand by MG’s owner, the giant SAIC Motor group, and previews MG’s first production urban SUV. It will be unveiled on the firm’s stand on April 20 and has been penned by a design team led by MG’s Global Design Director, Anthony Williams-Kenny.
The MG CS has several distinct features, including the headlights which have a multi-faceted ‘shard’ structure which refract light in different colours and shape from the side, but coalesce to form MG’s trademark octagon from the front.
There has been much speculation about an MG SUV and SAIC is pinning its hopes on this model winning over young, fashion conscious consumers. The MG CS concept will expand the global reach of the MG brand.
