EXE181

A striking concept car that channels the audacious spirit of MG’s land speed legacy into a future-facing design.

The concept takes clear inspiration from the record-setting 1957 EX181, a streamlined rocket of its time driven by Stirling Moss and later Phil Hill.

This new vision echoes its aerodynamic philosophy, boasting a drag coefficient of just 0.181 Cd, a number that nods to both the name and the performance focus of the vehicle.
