Why This Electric Roadster Matters More Than You Think
I first drove the MG Cyberster earlier last year on a brief test at Millbrook Proving Ground. Enough to intrigue, enough to raise eyebrows, but not enough to truly understand it. This time, MG handed me the keys for a week. Living with a car exposes its truths. Its cleverness. Its quirks. Its brilliance. And occasionally, its foibles.
MG’s new S6 EV arrives as a grown-up, spacious and impressively refined electric SUV that could tempt many families away from the usual big-brand choices
The 2026 MG S6 EV arrives without theatrics, yet the moment you walk around it, sit in it and drive it, you realise MG has shifted up a gear. This is the brand’s new family-sized electric SUV, the one many households have been waiting for. It sits on the same modular platform as the MG S5 EV but stretches everything further. A 77 kWh battery, rear-wheel-drive or dual-motor all-wheel drive, up to 329 miles of official WLTP range, and prices sitting roughly between forty-one and forty-four thousand pounds. MG is not pretending this is “budget” anymore. It is aiming for the mainstream.
The 496bhp Electric Roadster That’ll Make You Believe in MG Roadsters Again!
It’s been a long time coming, but I finally got my hands on the all-new MG Cyberster GT – and yes, it was worth the wait. I missed the launch, missed the press events, nearly missed this drive too, thanks to a temporarily closed track at Millbrook. But I’m stubborn (or mildly obsessive), and I wasn’t going to leave until I got my go behind the wheel of what is arguably the most important sports car of recent times!
£26,000-£31,500 Family Electric Car with up to 280 mile range!
This is the all-new all-electric MG4 EV which is now on sale in the UK starting from just £25,995. To put that into context, this is a futuristic purpose-built electric car, featuring a new modular platform that will form the basis of new EVs from MG to come; it is around the same size as an electric Volkswagen ID.3 but about the price of electric superminis like the Peugeot E-208 and Vauxhall Corsa E. Do I have your attention?
Check out the new updated MG ZS EV and it looks rather neat at the front. They’ve done away with the grille altogether with a concept car style stamped-effect fascia. It gets a new 72kWh battery pack which improves the range from 163 miles to 273 miles – which is impressive. But a 51kWh battery will also be offered with a 198 mile range, which is still better than before.

A line-up of 95 of the finest British cars to celebrate Her Majesty The Queen’s 95th birthday, the selection of cars chosen by David Lillywhite, Editorial Director of Magneto magazine. Along the way I constantly get distracted by other cars, and interview a few people! Join me for this epic walkaround the spectacular concours event. #BCGEvents
The MG ZS EV is, as you’ve probably guessed, the fully electric version of the formidably priced, practical and appealing ZS compact family SUV. It’s a little more expensive, whereas the regular ZS starts at just over £15k and tops out at around £20k, this starts at £25k, and the range-topper tested totalled nearly £29k.
What is an MG HS? Well it’s the third model to join the current MG line-up in the UK, a medium-sized SUV, and sits at the top as the flagship model – think of it as a rival to the Nissan Qashqai or Kia Sportage. At 4.5 metres long and two metres wide it has a large presence made more substantial by that grille, with its concave, rather trippy mesh design and the biggest MG logo badge ever seen on a car to sit at the centre of it.
