Description:

The MG MG4 Electric is a Chinese-built compact five-door electric hatchback developed by SAIC under the MG brand. MG MG4 Electric designed as an affordable entry into electric mobility, offering multiple battery options and performance levels, from efficient city commuting to high-output all-wheel-drive driving dynamics in the XPower version.

  • WLTP range estimates from 300 km (50.8 kWh) to 425 km (74.4 kWh), depending on trim.

  • Real-world efficiency averages 16–18 kWh/100 km, giving roughly 400–450 km per charge in mixed driving.

  • DC fast-charging up to 135–150 kW, achieving 10–80% in 24–33 minutes; AC home charging limited to 7 kW, about 9–13 hours full charge.

Frequently Asked Questions

The MG MG4 Electric is a compact five-door electric hatchback manufactured by SAIC Motor under the MG brand. It’s designed as an affordable electric vehicle (EV) offering a mix of practicality, performance, and accessible pricing between €26,000 and €46,000, depending on trim.
Depending on trim, the MG MG4 Electric offers battery capacities from 50.8 to 74.4 kWh. Official WLTP ranges vary between 300 km and 425 km, with real-world results typically 350–450 km per charge depending on weather and driving style.
Performance varies widely by version. Standard rear-wheel-drive models produce 125–150 kW and reach 0–100 km/h in about 7.7 seconds, while the high-performance XPower AWD model delivers 320 kW and 600 Nm for a 3.8-second sprint to 100 km/h and a top speed of 200 km/h.
Using a Level 3 DC fast charger (up to 150 kW), the MG MG4 Electric charges from 10 % to 80 % in around 24 to 33 minutes. With a Level 2 home charger (7 kW wallbox), a full charge takes roughly 9 to 13 hours depending on battery size. Charging from a standard household plug is possible but much slower.
Most versions of the MG MG4 Electric are rear-wheel-drive, which reviewers say gives the car balanced handling and good traction. The XPower edition adds a front motor for all-wheel drive and significantly more power.
Experts found the MG MG4 Electric excels in urban and suburban driving: it’s quiet, responsive, and easy to park. On motorways, the car remains stable but consumes more energy, reducing range on long trips where public-charging planning is essential.
All trims feature a 10.25-inch infotainment screen, 7-inch digital driver cluster, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, LED lighting, wireless charging, and a range of driver-assistance systems such as adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and blind-spot detection. Higher trims add heated seats and steering wheel.
The interior is minimal but modern, with good front and rear space for adults. Boot capacity is 363 L, expanding to 1,165 L with rear seats folded. Reviewers praised the flat floor and rear legroom but noted limited rear visibility and some interior rattles after extended use.
Advantages include strong value for money, impressive range for its price, rear-wheel drive dynamics, and low running costs. Common criticisms are a laggy infotainment system, inconsistent start-up operation, and some build-quality variability on interior materials.
It can handle long journeys comfortably when charging is planned, but its efficiency drops at higher speeds and public-charger availability remains a factor. Experts suggest the MG MG4 Electric is best suited as a daily commuter or second family vehicle for urban and suburban use where home charging is available.

Pros & Cons

Pros:

The MG MG4 Electric offers a very competitive price point in the electric-hatch segment, especially when compared to rivals.
With battery sizes up to ~77 kWh, the car achieves real-world range figures that many reviewers find very usable (e.g., ~400–450 km) for everyday use.
Rear-wheel drive in many trims, responsive steering and solid handling are repeatedly noted by reviewers and owners.
With support for ~135-150 kW DC charging (10-80 % in ~30-40 minutes) in higher trims, the MG MG4 Electric scores well for longer-distance practicality.
Reviewers appreciate the hatch layout, decent boot space (~363 L) and passenger space for a compact EV.
Owners highlight the cost savings from electric drivetrain, efficient urban use and reduced maintenance compared to ICE.
Many owners say the MG MG4 Electric is fun to drive, thanks to instant torque, rear-wheel drive and confident chassis feel.

Cons:

Common complaints include laggy touchscreen response, menu complexity, small fonts in bright light and less polished software experience.
Owners report issues like overly intrusive lane-keeping assist, low resolution rear camera, rattles or scratches emerging early and mixed dealership/service experiences.
While range is good, some reviewers observe that efficiency drops at motorway or high-speed driving, meaning longer trips require more planning.
Rear visibility is hindered by small rear window, thick pillars and less helpful camera in some situations; also some minor interior ergonomics annoyances (e.g., wireless-charging pad design).
Many reviewers emphasise that for best convenience the MG MG4 Electric assumes home/garage charging; relying solely on public networks can reduce the ownership ease.
