    Looks to be a step up in design terms from the ZS EV and indeed similar to the ID.4 stylistically.


    Anyone know this was coming or when it might be available here and likely pricing?

    With the listed specs, I would imagine something north of €40k price wise. As for when is anyone's guess right now. Could be 2022 if it comes here at all

    Well, since it said “UK is off the table” you can scratch it off your list for Ireland as well.

    Still RHD though which is likely to be the issue.

    MG have a growing presence in Australia also I understand so that may be a LHD being available also.

    Don’t you mean RHD ?
    Also, would Japan be RHD ?

    MG aren't in Japan and I'm not sure if they would have plans there for the near future. Foreign car companies do badly there. Even Ford withdrew from the market. What foreign companies are there mainly only sell luxury models or sportscars, and some of those will be LHD only.

    Just had a look at GM and they only seem to sell 2 Chevy sportscars and Cadillac a few huge high end things and everything seems to be LHD.

    Thailand will be a big market for these MGs and it's RHD. Bjørn Nyland bought a ZS EV in Thailand and it was released in UK shortly after.
