At the front, it boasts an all-black grille with a black 'MG' logo, blacked-out headlight housings, and a black skid plate with a silver insert. Along the sides, you’ll find all-black 18-inch alloy wheels paired with red brake callipers, while the outside rearview mirrors (ORVMs) also receive a sleek black treatment.

Additionally, there’s a Snowstorm moniker on the side, which can be added as an accessory at the dealership during delivery.
