IT'S no secret that MG is on a roll at the moment. The Chinese-owned British brand is enjoying record sales in the UK and across Europe thanks to an excellent line-up of family-friendly models, including the MG4, our Affordable Electric Car of the Year.
Yet to really drum up some attention, MG decided to create a special one-off show car for this year's Goodwood Festival of Speed. Enter the EX4 Concept.
To do this, MG took its all-electric MG4 and created a wild homage to one of the wackiest and most memorable rally cars of all time, the iconic Group B MG Metro 6R4.
Making a fitting tribute to what is one of the most beloved, if not successful, rally cars ever was quite a tricky undertaking, especially when using an EV as a base - despite how good the standard car is. That's why MG asked Northamptonshire-based engineering firm RML - the people behind the SWB, an homage to the Ferrari 250 GTO - to collaborate on the project.
