The MG 07 is a battery electric and plug-in hybrid large family car produced by SAIC Motor and sold under the MG brand.

Overview

[edit source]

On 29 January 2026, The MG released teasers for a then-unnamed saloon similar in size to the MG7 petrol-powered large family saloon. Its side profile has been compared to that of the significantly larger SAIC Z7, another EV produced by SAIC Motor.[2] It will be built on SAIC's Modular Scalable Platform, known as Nebula in China, which supports both battery electric and plug-in hybrid powertrains.[3] The first spyshots of the 07 surfaced in late February 2026.[4] The 07 was officially announced on 10 March 2026 alongside the 4X.[5] It made its official debut on 9 May 2026. The MG 07 rolled off the production line on 2 July and its interior was unveiled on 6 July 2026, with deliveries to dealers commencing on 21 July[6] ahead of pre-sales starting on 29 July.[7]

Design

[edit source]

The 07 uses a five-door fastback design. It uses semi-hidden door handles and hidden inlets on the side. A full-width light bar is utilised for the taillight.[8] Thin headlights and a small air intake are utilised on the front. A small slot is also visible on the 07, meaning a plug-in hybrid version will be offered.[9] In addition to being compared to the SAIC Z7, the side profile of the 07 has been compared to the Xiaomi SU7 and the Porsche Taycan.[2]

Features

[edit source]

Spyshots of the 07 suggests that it will use interfaces co-developed by MG and Oppo that will allow integration between Oppo phones and the vehicle itself. A roof-mounted LiDAR sensor will also be included which will enable Level 2+ autonomous driving.[10]

Powertrain

[edit source]

The 07 will be offered only with EV powertrain. All variants have Permanent Magnetic Synchronization front-motors with only front wheel drive versions available at the moment.

The 07 received over 21,000 pre-orders within 20 hours of opening on 30 July 2026.[11]
