Sporty exterior
The MG GT features the brand’s latest design language, with smooth and sleek lines seen all throughout the vehicle. At the front, it has a 3D Digital Flaming Grille bordered by full LED headlights and daytime running lamps.
At the rear, the sporty sedan comes with bright, highly-visible 3D LED Racetrack Taillamps and a ducktail accent on the truck, which adds a premium touch to the vehicle. Aside from this, it also gets a split tailpipe to give the car an energetic finishing note.
Premium interior
The inside of the MG GT provides a treat for drivers and passengers. Drivers of the sedan can get into their ideal driving position quickly thanks to a power-adjustable Zero-Gravity Sports Seat with lumbar support.

A 360-degree camera and reverse camera are also present in the sedan.
Competitive power
Under the hood, the MG GT is powered by a turbocharged 1.5-liter 4-cylinder 16-valve gasoline engine that produces 161 PS and 250 Nm of torque, which can rocket the sedan from zero to 100kph in just 8.5 seconds. Power is sent to the front wheels via a seven-speed Twin-clutch Sportronic Transmission (TST), which is a fancy way to say Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT), and it comes with paddle shifters.

MG owners can also download the My MG mobile app, which allows them to easily schedule vehicle service appointments from the convenience of their smartphones.
