MG4 XPOWER REVIEW: THE ULTIMATE SUPER CAR SLAYER

EV Channels Review

The MG4 XPower is presented as a "super car slayer" and a significant evolution for MG, moving beyond SUVs into performance-oriented vehicles. The reviewer highlights its dual motors, 430 BHP, and rapid 3.8-second 0-62mph time, attributing the enhanced performance to stiffer suspension (20% stiffer springs) and torque vectoring, which significantly improves grip, especially on B-roads. Despite its performance focus, the ride is described as comfortable and pliable. Real-world range is estimated at around 210-220 miles, with the reviewer noting that while extended range models exist, the XPower is primarily for "fun" rather than economy. Key positives include its aggressive styling, improved grip over standard MG4 models, responsive steering, and a surprisingly premium interior feel for its price point (starting around £37,000). Criticisms are minimal, with a mention of some hard plastics and the infotainment screen being sluggish in cold weather. The reviewer strongly recommends the XPower over other MG4 trims, emphasizing that the AWD transforms the driving experience.
