It is equipped with a powertrain capable of producing more than 1,000 horsepower, which could help it reach an estimated top speed of 257.87 mph. This significant amount of power contributes to the car's impressive acceleration, rocketing it from 0 to 62 mph in just 1.9 seconds.
a nod to history
EXE181 is not just a number. It's a tribute to MG's storied past. The original EX181 was the tank that carried Stirling Moss to the world land speed record in 1957. Fast forward to today and MG's concept car was able to surpass the Volkswagen XL1's Cd of 0.189. This is the highest level ever for a mass-produced vehicle.
