MG previews new all-electric hatch with MG GO! concept
Set to make its debut in 2027, MG has previewed its upcoming all-electric compact hatchback with the MG GO! concept.
MG Motors has unveiled the GO! concept. The Chinese-owned British automaker whipped the wraps off the GO! at the 2026 Goodwood Festival of Speed. Though officially unconfirmed, this B-segment battery-electric (BEV) hatch, which is due in 2027, could be named ‘MG2’, reports have suggested.
Finished in a vibrant matte body hue, the five-door concept car features pronounced wheel arches, a rear diffuser and a wing. While MG remains tight-lipped on technical details, what is known so far is that the GO! is approximately 4 000 mm long – shorter than the MG3 and similarly proportioned as the new Renault 5. The latter and Mini Cooper SE will likely be its rivals.
The retro-futuristic styling was inspired by MG’s youthful designs from the 20th century, such as the GT, Metro Turbo, ZR and EX4. Said Design Director of Advanced Design at MG Design Centre, Carl Gotham, “With MG GO!, we wanted to create something compact and contemporary, but also warm, expressive and immediately likeable, an embodiment of all that we admire about the MG brand.”
