What is the fastest MG model?

The MG IM5 Performance (2025), which reaches 60 mph in 2.95 s. It is the quickest of the 62 MG models listed here. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

Which MG model is quickest over the quarter mile?

The MG IM5 Performance again, in 10.93 s at 129.8 mph — it leads both the 0-60 and the quarter mile. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

Which MG model has the highest trap speed?

The MG IM5 Performance at 129.8 mph through the quarter-mile lights. Trap speed tracks power against weight, so it rewards a different car from the one that launches best. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

How many MG models are listed?

62, ranked by simulated 0-60 mph time, from the MG IM5 Performance at 2.95 s to the MG ZT 1.8i 16V 120 at 12.75 s.

Are these real measured times?

No. Every figure here is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. Each car is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces its own published acceleration figures. Because every car is run in identical conditions — dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout — the ranking is a fair comparison even though no individual time is a timing slip.

MG 0-60 times

All 62 MG models in the set, quickest to 60 mph first. The MG IM5 Performance leads at 2.95 s.

The quickest MG of the 62 listed here is the MG IM5 Performance, which reaches 60 mph in 2.95 s and covers the standing quarter mile in 10.93 s. The slowest here is the MG ZT 1.8i 16V 120 at 12.75 s.

Simulated, not measured — every car computed from its published kerb mass, rated power and drivetrain, then fitted to its own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
