The new model, which will apparently be called the GTS in China, is based on a new SAIC Motor-developed scalable architecture dubbed SSA (SAIC Scalable Architecture?) and not, as previously rumoured by some Chinese sources, a modified version of the current SsangYong Korando’s platform. The dimensions of L: 4500mm, W:1675mm and H:1675mm will pitch MG’s new SUV against competitors such as the Honda CR-V and Kia Sportage....

SAIC Motor has reportedly indicated that a UK introduction is scheduled for early 2016 [my bold] – the UK range is expected to include a turbocharged 1.9-litre four-cylinder diesel engine based on the unit already found in the MG6.

The GTS was previewed by the MG CS concept at the 2013 Beijing motor show and the styling has remained relatively faithful to that concept. Thankfully there’s no sign of the retro pastiche design treatment of the smaller MG Icon crossover concept shown at the 2012 Beijing show.
Described as a ‘mid-level SUV’, it’ll aim to emulate the success of the likes of the VW Tiguan and Kia Sportage as well as smaller models such as the Renault Captur.
