Multiple reports say MG is preparing a new electric supermini for 2027, described as a “retro” model taking visual inspiration from the original MG Metro. The car is identified as the “MG Go,” a boxy, small hatchback positioned as an electric hot-hatch style rival to the Renault 5. Sources link the design cues to the MG Metro produced from 1983 to 1990, framing the new vehicle as a modern reinterpretation of that earlier line rather than a direct remake. The coverage emphasizes the vehicle’s appearance and class positioning within the compact electric segment, highlighting its intent to bring back styling associated with the 1980s MG Metro while using an electric powertrain. The articles do not provide detailed specifications such as battery capacity, range, pricing, or performance figures. Instead, they focus on the confirmation of the model and the 2027 timeline, along with its retro-inspired exterior design and competitive positioning against other upcoming electric superminis.
