Like the E50, the Dynamo takes the form of a four-seater sub-compact hatchback that is roughly the same size as the tiny Volkswagen up! The car wears a futuristic design that intentionally breaks all ties with MG’s past and current lineup.
Fully functional, the 2,376-pound Dynamo is powered by a 70-horsepower electric motor linked to a small lithium iron phosphate battery pack. The car takes over 14 seconds to reach 62 mph from a stop and tops out at 80 mph, though MG points out it is primarily designed to be driven at low speeds in urban areas.
The Dynamo’s battery pack provides a 50-mile driving range. A full charge takes six hours when the car is plugged into a regular household outlet, and a quick charger will restore anywhere between 10- and 80-percent of the battery’s capacity in just 30 minutes.
MG says the Dynamo can be quickly added to its lineup as a regular-production model if there is enough demand from European buyers. The automaker has not announced when it will decide whether to move ahead with the project.
