MG X80 V8
MG X80 benefits from a high-technology super-formed
aluminium body, mounted to a steel box section chassis. X80’s outstanding
chassis set-up and engineering specification have evolved from the Qvale
Mangusta, acquired by the company in June 2001.
MG X80 has independent wishbone suspension, and a front engine / rear-wheel
drive layout producing a perfect handling balance. Advanced braking systems
harness the variety of power outputs available – from 260 to 385 bhp (SAE)
produced from 4.6-litre V8 engines.
The MG X80 2+2 seater Coupe will be launched in summer 2002 giving the MG brand
a world class product in the high performance luxury sports car sector. It will
be joined by a roadster version in 2003, both available with manual or automatic
transmissions.
Potential features include Electronic Traction Control, limited slip
differential, ABS braking, 18" alloy wheels, air conditioning and a
six-speaker in-car entertainment system with radio/cassette and CD Autochanger.
Electric powered items include power windows, door mirrors, driver’s seat
adjustment and a luxurious leather interior.
The X80 sports car is positioned above the popular MGF roadster, the new MG
sports saloons (MG ZR, MG ZS and MG ZT) and ZT-T sports-wagon that have recently
been introduced Europe-wide.
