Close to perfection? That is beautiful.

That is just terrible! If they do bring out a coupe version, it needs to have traditional coupe styling, similar to the original e-motion concept or an Aston coupe.

Aye the Aston is indeed a beautiful car but, for me, the roofline is a bit weak. I gets to the B pillar and then just falls away. It might be aerodynamic etc. but as I have always had a preference for estate cars I find a longer roof and side windows just look better. Many car makers got it “right” in the past (for me) - Reliant Scimitar - Volvo - BMW etc. just looks better to my eyes.

They always do a shooting brake render of everything. BMW made one concept for the Z4. I think they should do a 2 seater coupe and 2 + 2 4 years down the line. Make it 1700kg and add Solid state battery that can give 300-400 miles of range.

If it was more of a coupe-style roofline, then they could tag it as a "new" MGBGT.

I was walking through Abingdon today and spotted this.

I think this one along with other protos will eventually end up at the Museum ?. Done its hard yards. I think since its taking 3 to 4 years from concept wouldn't hurt to see some coupe concepts for 2027-2028 eh MG?! Something Cyberpunk and radical ?

An interesting ‘body’ of work. Not everybody’s cup of tea.

And presumably owned or sponsored by miHoYo. A gaming company started by a group of students straight out of uni. With a very long Wikki page and an interesting ‘mission’ statement.

300hp at 1100kg. Range of 180 miles yikes..moves like an Alpine looks like a Supercar. I dont envisage it being that price in UK. Dual motor 800hp apparently.

But it is a coupe, not a competitor to the Cyberster... more to the IM models launching soon.

Generally a good review, but some of the "negatives" they quote are totally ludicrous. Must be a good sign though as hardly any real negatives at all.

"No option for a manual gearbox"

"GT may feel a bit too sure-footed for some"

"You’ll need to warn your passenger if you’re about to floor it"

"Britain’s best driving roads are far from rapid chargers"

What utter tosh!
