Is the MG6 a coupe?
3 Answers
MG6 is a coupe under SAIC MG. Historical Development: The MG6 has undergone three generations of evolution, with global cumulative sales consistently ranking among the top in the domestic sports sedan market. From the first generation's high-value hatchback design, to the second generation's high-performance model capable of 0-100 km/h in 6 seconds, to the third generation's super combat model integrating high-value, strong power, high safety, cutting-edge technology, and high intelligence, the MG6 perfectly embodies the MG spirit of 'always YOUNG'. New Versions: In 2017, the new MG6 successively launched multiple models including the first new MG6 version, 20T automatic Trophy sports internet version, 2019 version, and 20T manual Trophy high-speed rail version.
I used to be confused about what exactly defines a coupe, but after researching I finally understood. The MG6 truly qualifies as a coupe, with its most distinctive feature being the hatchback-style tailgate design - opening the trunk is completely different from a regular sedan. The car's fastback lines are exceptionally smooth, flowing seamlessly from the roof to the rear. When I accompanied a friend on a test drive, I noticed the rear headroom was actually more generous than traditional three-box sedans. The factory-installed small spoiler and dual exhaust pipes, paired with the 1.5T engine, deliver noticeable acceleration thrust when you step on the gas, and the chassis tuning leans toward sporty. Strictly speaking, it's not as purebred as a BMW 4 Series, but in the 150,000 yuan price range, it absolutely deserves to be called a 'people's coupe' among young enthusiasts.
Just test drove the new MG6 last week, here are some impressions. The front end sits very low, with blacked-out grille and red brake calipers, giving it an aggressive look when on the move. Getting into the driver's seat, I noticed the steering wheel is about half a turn smaller than regular sedans, with a heavier steering feel. The highlight is the trunk – the hatchback-style tailgate opens at an enormous angle, I tried fitting a folded bicycle vertically without issues. If there's a drawback, it's the stiff suspension; you need to slow down for speed bumps, but cornering stability is excellent. This sporty tuning paired with the fastback design clearly positions it as a coupe from the manufacturer. While it can't match sports car performance, it's definitely flashy enough for daily driving.
