One for the history books, the upcoming MG EX4 concept is poised to be a fitting tribute to the iconic Metro 6R4 rally car from the vibrant era of the 1980s. This sensational concept is expected to be revealed at Goodwood Festival of Speed, courtesy of MG.
A High-Performance Chronicle:
The EX4 concept is ambitiously heralded as MG’s ‘third high-performance’ vehicle, following the highly acclaimed hot hatch MG4 and the much-discussed Cyberster electric sports car. The EX4 carries significant expectations with its promise to honour the legendary Metro 6R4 rally car, as revealed by the massive front spoiler and rear wing gracing the teaser images. The design has been meticulously crafted by the same proficient London team that had a role in the creation of Cyberster, thereby raising expectations for a power-packed performance.
The Big Reveal:
The unveiling of the EX4 concept is eagerly anticipated at Goodwood‘s First Glance paddock on the 13th of July. Insiders have tipped that the car will be sporting a ‘distinctive’ livery enhancing the excitement for its grand reveal.
Under The Hood:
The EX4 evolution is expected to continue the legacy of its predecessor, the XPower hot hatch, by employing the same robust 429bhp twin-motor powertrain, which boasts an impressive 0-62mph in 3.8 seconds. The performance parameters of the EX4 are likely to be enhanced with the additional downforce implementation, a tantalising prospect for any automobile enthusiast.
Closing Thoughts:
The imminent arrival of the 429bhp MG4 XPower promises to usher in a new epoch for hot hatch series, setting the stage for the EX4 concept’s thrilling ascent up the hill. Stay tuned for more exciting updates on the MG legacy.
