The first images of the new MG S6 EV have surfaced online, and somewhat amusingly, the source isn’t the automaker itself but Euro NCAP. The safety testing authority has unwittingly given us our first proper glimpse of the upcoming SUV.

### A Surprise First Look

MG has yet to release official photographs of the model, but its inclusion in Euro NCAP’s latest batch of crash-tested vehicles means we now have a reasonably clear look at its design—even if most of the images show it in a rather battered state.

Designing an SUV that looks good isn’t easy, but MG has certainly made a decent attempt with the S6. The front end is very similar to the smaller S5 and includes the same small, split front grille positioned at the very base of the bumper. The vehicle also features LED daytime running lights and separate headlamps housed within distinctive triangular-shaped elements.

At the rear, the S6 EV presents a sleek finish. The shape of the taillights and the continuous light bar are reminiscent of the Mercedes-Benz EQA, albeit with more complex lighting signatures. Additionally, the blacked-out bumper and sharp diffuser add to its sporty and modern look.

### What About the Interior?

While official images of the MG S6’s interior have yet to be released, the Euro NCAP crash test photos provide a few revealing glimpses. Between shots capturing airbags deploying into crash dummies, you can spot a squared-off steering wheel, a sizable central infotainment screen, and a head-up display positioned above the dashboard—all pointing toward a tech-forward cabin design.

### Safety and Specifications

On the safety front, the MG S6 EV scored a full five stars from Euro NCAP. It earned impressive ratings, including:

– 92% for adult protection
– 85% for child protection
– 84% for vulnerable road users
– 78% for driver-assist technologies

Although the report doesn’t detail drivetrain specifics, it confirms that both two-wheel and four-wheel-drive variants are planned. It is likely that the S6 will share the same single-motor rear-wheel-drive setup as the S5, which produces 228 hp and 258 lb-ft (350 Nm) of torque.

The all-wheel-drive version is expected to add a secondary motor up front, creating a dual-motor configuration with balanced output and broader appeal to prospective buyers.

### When to Expect the Reveal?

MG officials have confirmed that the full reveal of the S6 EV is scheduled for the end of November. Until then, these unexpected Euro NCAP images offer the best look at MG’s latest electric SUV, which promises to shake up the market with its design, safety, and performance credentials.

Stay tuned for more updates as the launch approaches!
