New cut-priced MG3 will rival the Corsa, 208 and Clio in the supermini class<\/h2>\n


\n<\/p>\n

MG might be making lots of noise with its new-age electric cars and even a sporty open-top flagship in the shape of the Cyberster, but the reborn British brand isn\u2019t losing sight of the value-driven models that have formed the bedrock of its contemporary comeback. MG\u2019s next generation MG3 supermini is about to be revealed, joining the line up to, in all likelihood, become one of the UK\u2019s cheapest new cars on sale.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The new Vauxhall Corsa-sized model won\u2019t feature an all-electric powertrain as in the new MG4, instead retaining a combustion powertrain that\u2019s expected to feature some level of mild-hybrid tech.<\/p>\n

Designed principally to be efficient and low-cost, the new model – which has previously been leaked in a set of patent images – features a new design taking inspiration directly from the Cybester Roadster. We can see similarly shaped swept-back headlights, flowing bodywork and a large low-mounted grille opening.\u00a0<\/p>\n
