MG 07 Coupe Launches with BEV and PHEV Powertrains

MG brand officially launched the all-new MG 07 coupe in China with both battery electric vehicle (BEV) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) powertrains. The model is offered in seven variants, with standard prices ranging from CNY 108,900 to CNY 159,900 and limited-time promotional prices from CNY 105,900 to CNY 156,900. The launch gives buyers a choice between two electrified powertrain approaches while combining a fastback body style, high-voltage charging technology, advanced cockpit hardware, and selected intelligent driving functions.

MG 07 Design, Dimensions and Storage

The new MG 07 measures 4,886 mm in length, 1,900 mm in width, and 1,478/1,485 mm in height, with a 2,825 mm wheelbase. Its fastback design incorporates a liftback tailgate, frameless doors, and a five-position electrically adjustable rear spoiler. The vehicle also provides a 168 L front trunk with a Knock Knock automatic opening and closing function, together with a 697 L rear trunk. This combination gives the coupe-oriented model a practical storage layout while retaining the low-slung fastback profile and exterior features intended to differentiate it within the passenger-car market.

BEV Powertrain and Charging Specifications

The BEV version is offered in five variants, all using a front-motor, front-wheel-drive (FWD) configuration. A single permanent magnet synchronous motor delivers maximum power of 176/235 kW and peak torque of 300/350 Nm, enabling 0-to-100 km/h acceleration in 6.9/5.9 seconds and a top speed of 200 km/h. Depending on the variant, the vehicle uses either a 67 kWh hybrid solid-liquid battery supplied by Shanghai SAIC QingTao Energy Technology Co., Ltd or a 91 kWh ternary lithium battery supplied by CATL. The BEV supports 400 V/800 V high-voltage charging, 3C/5C charging, and a CLTC EV-mode range of 610–845 km.

BEV Range and Fast-Charging Performance

The electric variants have an energy consumption rating of 11.5–12.3 kWh/100 km and support different charging capabilities depending on configuration. DC fast charging from 30% to 80% state of charge (SoC) takes 20 minutes on the applicable configuration and 12 minutes on the higher-rate configuration. The combination of an 800 V-capable architecture, high charging rates, and a maximum CLTC EV-mode range of 845 km is intended to improve long-distance usability while reducing charging downtime. The battery choices also give buyers different combinations of capacity and charging performance within the five BEV variants.

PHEV Powertrain and Long-Range Capability

The PHEV version is available in two variants and uses a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout. Its powertrain combines a 1.5 L high-efficiency DVVT dedicated hybrid engine with a single permanent magnet synchronous motor. The engine produces 82 kW of maximum power and 135 Nm of peak torque, while the motor provides 152 kW and 302 Nm. The system enables 0-to-100 km/h acceleration in 7.5 seconds and a top speed of 170 km/h. A 400 V high-voltage charging platform and a 30 kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery supplied by CATL provide a 245 km CLTC EV-mode range and a 1,745 km CLTC combined range.

MG 07 Powertrain and Performance Data

The PHEV achieves fuel consumption of 3.98 L/100 km in charge-sustaining mode under WLTC conditions and supports 3C charging. DC fast charging from 30% to 80% SoC takes 15 minutes. Across the two powertrain families, the vehicle therefore emphasizes different use cases: the BEV variants focus on extended electric driving range and high-speed charging, while the PHEV variants combine electric operation with a gasoline engine for a substantially longer combined driving range. These configurations allow the seven-variant lineup to address buyers with different charging access and driving requirements.

MG 07 Cockpit and Intelligent Driving Technology

The vehicle comes standard with an 8.88-inch LCD instrument cluster and a 15.6-inch center touchscreen. Its intelligent cockpit uses Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295P/8155 chips and supports full-scenario smartphone-vehicle connectivity. The system uses sensors including one LiDAR and one 4D millimeter-wave radar and supports Highway Navigation on Autopilot (Highway NOA), City Navigation on Autopilot (City NOA), and Reverse Assist (RA), expanding the model's driver-assistance capabilities.

MG and Roewe Expand Their Electrified Vehicle Portfolio

Alongside the launch, the Jiayue 07, described as the world's first AI-native vehicle and jointly developed by SAIC Roewe and ByteDance Ltd's Beijing Volcano Engine Technology Co., Ltd, made its public debut. Blind pre-orders for the model have exceeded 11,000 units. The Chengdu Motor Show also featured several additional models from the group's brands, including the Roewe M7 DMH, 2026 Roewe D6 EV, MG4, and MG 4X. The broader display highlights continued expansion across battery electric, plug-in hybrid, and AI-enabled vehicle offerings, while the new coupe adds another electrified product to the MG lineup.

MG 07 BEV and PHEV Key Specifications

The two powertrain configurations differ substantially in propulsion architecture, battery capacity, electric range, charging performance, and total driving range. The BEV lineup provides five configurations with either 67 kWh or 91 kWh batteries, while the PHEV lineup uses a 30 kWh LFP battery combined with a 1.5 L hybrid engine. The specifications below summarize the principal technical differences between the two versions and show how the seven variants divide performance and range characteristics across the lineup.
