MG CYBER LINE-UP SET TO GET CHUNKY CROSSOVER

Sub-brand’s new 4x4-inspired model will join the Cyberster sports car

- 

MG has taken to the Shanghai motor show to reveal a rugged, boxy SUV concept that previews the second model in its fashion-focused Cyber line-up.

The Cyber X is a bold, two-box, 4x4-inspired crossover that measures 4.3m long, which makes it roughly the same size as the Land Rover Defender 90.

It has been revealed in concept form without an interior, but the design boss of MG parent company SAIC, Jozef Kaban, suggested to Autocar that the speed of development of Chinese companies means it could quickly be made production-ready.

One priority of the concept car, said Kaban, is to demonstrate how the more enthusiast-focused Cyber brand could be expanded and bring a new character to the MG family.
