Martha in front and Peugeot behind? Brand-new MG 5, "beauty" is a mess!

Domestic brands always like to pay attention to appearance. First, the appearance can be seen at a glance. Whether you like it or not is basically a matter that can be decided at a glance, so many car companies will empty their minds to create the appearance that some Chinese people like.

Second, good-looking appearance can also set the market tone for the whole brand. For example, if a brand always designs and manufactures some shapes that focus on sports and youth, then the brand will inevitably be labeled as "sports" and "youth" over time.

This is the case with MG brand, which is a big fire among our domestic brands. Many people's cognition of MG 6 should still belong to that MG 6. As the saying goes, they are not afraid of the Civic in the air, but they are afraid that even the high-speed rail can't catch up with the MG (intended to ridicule the MG 6 high-speed rail version), which shows the success of the MG 6 car in the Civic fever incident.

With the popularity of MG 6, the MG brand focusing on youth and sports has been recognized and loved by more people. And this domestic automobile brand, which was first born in Britain and later acquired by SAIC, can now be said to be "smooth sailing". Is it true that after the explosion of MG 6 by "Internet celebrities", MG has brought us a new generation non-stop? Mg 5。 At present, the new car has been officially unveiled and is expected to be listed at the end of the year. Although the interior has not been announced, we dare not compliment the appearance of this car. Let's have a look.

As a brand-new compact car, the appearance of MG 5 has indeed changed fundamentally compared with the previous generation. Coupled with this coquettish bright yellow car paint, the whole car suddenly appears to be a lot of stalls, but also into the young and trendy camp.

According to the official statement, the front face design of the new MG 5 is named-shark hunting, which sounds quite imposing, but I can't help but complain about its appearance.

First, the front of the car, dive forward. This low-profile style is indeed the most mainstream design in the current coupe type, and it can also enhance the sense of movement of the front of the car. But if you look closely at the whole front face, you will find that how does this look so much like the president of Maserati family?

There is little difference in the shape of the air intake grille. The similar headlight group design is highly similar to Maserati's president in many places except for the adjustment of the lower surrounding part. So at this point, we can't help but ask: Is the design of MG transferred from Mazda to Maserati again?

Looking back at the first appearance of MG 6, all discerning people knew that it borrowed (copied) the design of Mazda Angkeira in some places, but MG not only didn't think much, but also "took the opportunity" to launch the later version of MG 6 high-speed rail. For this wave of marketing operations, I can only say that MG is really 666.

Now MG has released a new generation of MG 5. The overall shape is indeed a new high for domestic cars, but many designs that can't stand scrutiny still make us worry about the future of this brand.

Seeing the tail of the new generation MG 5, the overall freshness is still not as strong as before, and it is not the final version now, so it cannot have absolute reference significance.

However, we have seen some clues in the taillight design of MG 5. The taillights of MG 5 are designed as arrows. At first glance, it's really distinctive. But if you ignore the arrow, are the three vertical light bars of the position light exactly the same as the overseas version of Peugeot 308GT? Don't tell me the style is similar. Comparing the taillight light source design of the two cars, it is almost the same. What's more, Peugeot 308GT has been unveiled for several years, so this design of MG 5 taillight group is intriguing.

Finally, we seem to find some interesting little details in brand classification. Mazda is in front of MG brand, followed by Maserati. All three brands are automobile brands starting with the letter "M". So let's make a joke: did MG finish the Mazda in front first, and now it's targeting the Maserati behind?

Conclusion: Of course, we hope that these guesses made today are just guesses, but looking back at the "family history" of MG in recent years, it seems that its new car can never get rid of the "hat" for reference. From MG 6 to MG ZS, HS, and now the brand-new MG 5, although the new cars in the family are more amazing than one, the design is always questioned. In the final analysis, I think the design is still immature.

In short, regardless of whether these models of MG have learned from the above, we still hope that the brand of MG will get better and better in the end. After all, domestic brands need to rise, domestic sports cars need to break through, and MG has obviously touched a little edge now!
