Ni hao from Auto Shanghai 2025, where countless cars are making their world debut today on the press day. A lot of those cars, from Chinese brands, will look same-same (seriously, it’s hard to maintain abreast), but MG’s Cyber X won’t seem like any of them.
Also surprising for a Chinese boxy SUV, it doesn’t seem like other famous 4x4s – this isn’t a replica of the Land Rover Defender, Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen or Toyota Land Cruiser. It even has a feature that I don’t remember seeing in any SUV, past and present – pop-up headlamps! Yes, the upper tier lights on the bonnet’s edge are pop-ups!
Elsewhere, the matte black showcar has full-width LED signature bars at each ends, and each front and rear also feature illuminated MG logos. The bonnet is stepped. Flashes of brightwork could be found on the wing mirror caps and two-tone wheels, and that’s it. A clean, handsome boxy SUV to our eyes.
No details yet, but in accordance with Autocar, the Cyber X will sit on parent company SAIC’s latest E3 electric platform designed for every part from compact cars to sports cars. The “first fully electric, system-level architecture” incorporates cell-to-body construction, where the batteries contribute to body rigidity, reducing weight.
This big SUV could thoroughly be an SUV flagship for the MG brand – it also has the ‘Cyber’ name, similar to the Cyberster roadster, an attractive flag bearer for the marque.
We’ll get back to you with details, but for now, what do you’re thinking that of the MG Cyber X, design clever?
