MG Motor this year returned to one of the world’s top motoring events, the Goodwood Festival of Speed, with a high voltage display of electric-powered performance. The British-born brand revealed not one but three global debuts, including the highly-anticipated first running of the Cyberster roadster, the striking EX4 concept car and the brand new MG4 EV XPOWER.
The two-seater Cyberster and MG4 EV XPOWER – both offering impressive acceleration – were two of the star attractions on the Goodwood Hill. Drawing inspiration from the company’s heritage, Cyberster’s bold styling combines contemporary design with distinctive touches that call on MG’s rich history as a renowned manufacturer of exciting, engaging convertible sports cars. The dramatic, two-seater EV convertible’s performance credentials were on display throughout the festival. The MG4 XPOWER, capable of delivering 435PS and up to 600Nm of torque, used its innovative dual motor configuration which delivers power to all four wheels to launch off the start line.
MG also revealed a third high performance car, the EX4 concept car, boldly reimagining the Metro 6R4 rally legend of the 1980s, but moving with the times this concept is now underpinned by the MG4 XPower’s extremely powerful electric drivetrain. Developed especially for the festival by MG’s design team in London to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the legendary Metro 6R4, the EX4 features a distinctive livery.

For more than 20 years, the Cayenne has been characterised by its ability to provide the broad range of qualities between characteristic Porsche driving performance, excellent comfort in everyday driving, and great capability when driving off-road. The future models of the SUV will seamlessly continue this success story, retaining all of the car’s familiar features.
“The Cayenne has always defined the sports car in its segment. In the middle of the decade, the fourth generation will set standards in the segment as an electric SUV,” said Blume, CEO of Porsche AG. At the same time, into the next decade our customers will still be able to choose from a wide range of powerful and efficient combustion and hybrid models.
"The third generation of the Cayenne will be further upgraded and will continue to be offered alongside the fourth, all-electric generation".
The current Cayenne generation, which last year was given one of the most extensive product upgrades in the history of Porsche, will be further developed with major technological investment in the future. Here the developers will be focusing, among other things, on the powertrains, in particular on improving the efficiency of the V8 developed by Porsche and built at the Zuffenhausen engine plant. Extensive technical measures will ensure that the twin-turbo engine is ready to comply with future legislative requirements.
In a bold move against the prevailing headwinds in the electric vehicle (EV) industry, VinFast, the young Vietnamese EV manufacturer, is forging ahead with its ambitious global expansion plans. While major players like Apple have recently abandoned their decade-long pursuit of an electric vehicle, and others are scaling back their ambitions, VinFast remains undeterred. Having already established a presence in the U.S., Canada, and Southeast Asia, the company is now setting its sights on the Middle Eastern market.
Hyundai is set to debut its three-row electric SUV later this year, a move that signifies the automaker's bold step into the large electric vehicle (EV) market. This new SUV, anticipated to be named the Ioniq 9, is poised to be Hyundai’s equivalent to the Kia EV9, offering a spacious and eco-friendly alternative to its popular Palisade.
