WHAT'S THE BOG STANDARD MG4 ELECTRIC LIKE?

EV Channels Review

The MG4 SE Standard Range, reviewed here as an entry-level EV, impresses with its surprisingly engaging driving dynamics, offering a low-to-the-road, go-kart-like feel and superb handling. The reviewer highlights its nippy acceleration and the benefit of rear-wheel drive, which eliminates torque steer. Positives include the comfortable seats, spacious interior despite an ultra-thin battery, excellent full LED headlights, and a minimalist interior design that avoids the clutter of other MG models. The zero-cobalt LFP battery is also a significant selling point. However, the boot space is noted as being a little small. A major drawback for the reviewer is the lane-keep assist system, which automatically re-engages and can be intrusive. The lack of a reversing camera and heated seats are also mentioned as missing features on this base model. Real-world range is estimated around 180 miles from the advertised 218 miles, with a motorway test returning 3.2 miles/kWh. Despite some minor quibbles, the reviewer found it to be an easy, conventional-feeling, and enjoyable car to drive, particularly appreciating the well-balanced suspension.
