Just a few notes: The Seal Performance will do 0-100 in 3.8 (yes under 3.9) every day of the week so I don't know what you did wrong. The only MG with a LFP battery is the base (best buy too) and the only one you can charge to 100% like the BYD. So basically you get the same usable KW as the next model up. The Seal(s) are far nicer finished inside than any of the MGs. If you drive a Seal you'll want to own one. Most reviewers do not drive one long enough to work out all the tricks to making it almost perfect (for the money) and a car you just want to drive. Pro tip: Some Aussie power plans now offer 3 hours per day all you can eat free power. This means 700km/week of free driving.
The Seal Performance made my head spin when I launched it during a test drive 🤣 First time I was in a car with such acceleration and I loved it. Just a shame the footwell is so high compared to the seating position. I wouldn't want to drive it for longer trips. The Atto 3 on the other hand... 😍
What a nonsensical review here. Bad headline too. I've driven a MG ZS EV Long range Luxury edition since december 2021 and I have to say: All lies. Best car I've ever driven, by far, and I've driven many rentals and lease-cars and whatnot. This review is simply incorrect. We barely have to charge the thing with its 69.9 kWh battery. What pleases me most about this car is that we can enter and leave the seats without needing to squeeze anything, it's so roomy and silent, it is fast too, at stoplights here in NL we pass by all others, I really don't see a flaw with it, aside from perhaps some efficiency because it is a little heavier and less streamlined. But here in NL we're not allowed to drive faster than 120 km/h anyway, mostly even 100 km/h max, so all speeds beyond that are useless.
Check your battery health, you’ll be disappointed you want to sell it off quickly. Ive own a lot of cars, this is the worst I’ve ever owned. The range is bad, body noise , steering rack issues, sunroof, a lot goes on. Chinese cars are a scam. Got it brand new drove just 10k miles
I think my GWM Ora extended range got the first spot in my heart, I got it for $39,990 only with less than 1500km on the clock..the booth space is a bit small for people who need to carry a lot of stuff everyday, but it’s enough for us to haul a week’s worth of groceries for 4 people with no problems
We landed on the Atto, but I really like the Ora. The exterior suggests an “Asian Fiat”, with a Mini-esque interior . Like most EVs it leaves petrol/diesel cars in their dust. It’s just the boot is just too small for our needs. I hope your love affair with the Funky Cat lasts for a long time.
Nah I doubt it I have byd dolphin for almost 3 years battery just went broke...it won't start and charge....after sale is worse...I have already complained this to byd
Took over Tesla? 🤣 sure did with beat Everybody with cars that are unsafe, catch on fire and most of all supported by an evil regime that profits from forced human organ harvesting! Yeah! Not something to be proud of! 🩸🇨🇳💉🩸🇨🇳💉
the number one car is the one where we can at worst mod the software to make Lane Keep Assist STAY OFF FOREVER!! MG missed the ball making the Essence version NMC only and not giving the LFP option. Those are my grips with the MG4 essence
I have sat in all these cars, and as I am 6’4” tall and in my seventies, there are only 2 that I can sit in comfortably. The BYD Atto 3 and the GWM Ora. All the others even the Dolphin feel incredibly small inside. The MG4 is like sitting in a pregnant skateboard! The Ora was ok, only 2 of us and a dog so not worried about space, but the GWM dealer in Hallam, Vic was more interested in selling Tank 300 than talk to me about electric cars. So we left them all and went home.
I'm more of a sedan guy, so I tend to gravitate towardst the BYD Seal. In Aussie, the base Dynamic starts at 49,888 which is pretty compelling. It is heavy though, near 2 tonnes, which makes something like the Ora (Funky Cat) very interesting for weighing "only" 1500kg. That's positively feather-weight for an EV. Overall I agree with the list, but might put the Seal Premium at the top of the list.
@@mondotv4216 yes and no. Tesla RWD has a 60kwh battery and weighs just under 1800kg. The Seal Dynamic has a 61kwh battery and is just over 1900kg. So similar battery and the Seal is a little heavier. Seal and Model 3 have near identical dimensions also. The higher range Seal does go well over 2 tonnes, and is therefore much heavier than the Model 3 LR and Performance
It would be top of my list too, but the low ground clearance might be a deal killer for me. A driveway at work already catches the front of my Leaf, Seal would be painful there. But the Premium looks the goods, arguably a better deal than the Tesla especially at the price. We have the Atto 3 and love it.
@@nadnerb2k my sister runs the Atto 3. They love it as they have 2 kids and run solar panels. They don't pay for power or fuel! The interior is a little too funky for me, and I like sedans so it's the Seal for me. I wonder if the bit that sticks out under the front lip can be removed to increase ground clearance. Guess I'll find out soon! Take delivery of my Seal Dynamic next week.
All the batteries are fine. BYD batteries go in the Berlin made Tesla's. GWM have had their own battery subsidiary for decades, who do a lot of research. MG have great batteries too it seems. Only one's I've ever heard could be dodgy were LG Chem batteries (e.g. in the GM Volt). There have been 6 EV fires in Australia.... 2 were arson, 3 were when the house caught fire first, and one was just a battery pack left out in the rain. ICE are 20x more likely to catch fire.
@@stormjuice I've seen heaps of EV fires, the difference is ICE won't self combust in the garage while you're sleeping and they're a whole lot easier to put out.
@@justice4g Combustion cars can and do burn while off, to the point that some BMW models had advice from BMW to not park them in your garage. Yes, EVs are harder to put out if the main battery goes into runaway, but they burn a whole lot less. Also you've seen loads of EV fires? Do you mean youtube videos, or actually seen? Cause there have been really very few EV fires. I've seen one (hybrid), but it was arson. There are loads of cheap ebike/scotter etc battery fires as they are often not standards compliant and don't have proper management but that doesn't equate to EVs.
@@justice4gyou have seen those Evs caught online because they get an unfair media (mass or social) coverage while ICE cars catching fires don’t. I used to think like you until my own parents in law’s 6 month new Subaru SUV had an electric system issue which resulted in frying and smoking and the car was totalled. They told me that luckily the car was not parked in the garage or near anything that would catch fire easily. After that incident they started telling me all the ICE cars catching on fire stories and almost everyone they talked to knows someone who had an issue in this category, and the rate of ICE cars having such problems is way higher than we are aware of.
@@CarSauce "avoid these cars" doesn't remotely match with the content of the video. You talk about 7 cars, and even your second least favourite car gets a fairly decent review and is only marked down for being attention-getting and quirky? I wouldn't say avoid the video, but honest title please. "We rank Chinese EVs" or something like that would be much more honest. I own the atto 3. None of the others except the ZS EV were available when I bought 9 months ago. Test drove the Xpower a couple weeks ago which was a HOOT, but yeah wouldn't buy. If I was shopping today, Seal Premium would be on top of my list except for the low ground clearance. MG4 - the laggy infotainment lets it down. Atto 3, still a solid contender, we love ours - 89 not 80kW fast charging, yes a tad slow but still serves us well on road trips. Ora - I didn't fit in it unless I put the seat all the way down which was uncomfortable.
@@nadnerb2kwell, it made you click on the video didn't it? Not siding with them and click bait but youtube does kinda force creators to have catchy/ baity titles.
The Lithium Phosphate Iron battery safety & ability to charge to 100% on a regular basis with little degradation, gives the BYD Atto3 & Dolphin a big advantage over the other cars you reviewed.
@@robertkubrick3738No. The liquid electrolyte is the flammable part. This is what is usually the problem. But if you are scared about a flammable material in your vehicle, then why would you ever drive an ICE vehicle again?? EV fires are extremely rare. Only because the media hyper focuses on EV fires does not mean that that they are a common thing.
Gotta agree. Not in Australia, but the MG4 is the absolute tops. I chose the 51 kwh battery because that goes far enough for me on a daily basis, but if you do longer trips, go for the same trim in the 64 kwh. There's no contest.
Ok reasonable rankings...but seriously though, the MG4 interior is NOT premium, I had a good look a couple weeks ago and it was the absolute worst interior of any EV I had ever seen. It was cheap and nasty, "premium" is not a word I'd use to describe it.
From what I've seen the Funky cat has a nicer interior than the MG4. For me, when I drove the Seal, the interior felt close enough to my Alfa Giulia that it didn't feel like a downgrade. Which is good enough for me especially since the Seal I've just bought cost less than half of what I paid for my Giulia.
@@GT86crazy Absolutely agree, the Ora definitely has a much nicer interior made of quality materials. The Seal however...Heaven! I loved it so much I ordered a Premium!
@@kitxxxxkit I'm suitably impressed with the Seal interior. It's not perfect mind you, I'd like NO piano black plastic, especially at touch points like the buttons on the centre console. But for the price? Seal is punching above its weight.
I have driven the MG ZS EV Mk1 and the basic Ora and they are both excellent cars. As you comment, the Ora could do with a bigger boot. The range of both is perfectly adequate for city cars. The second-hand MG ZS EV Mk1s are very good value. More advanced cars are coming on to the market but these cars still do their job and do it well. It is true the MG ZS EV is built on a multi-setup platform which can be used for petrol, plug in hybrid or BEV but it is still pretty efficient and hopefully the common platform will make it easier to obtain the parts that are common to the ZS EVs and the ZS petrol cars. Both the Mk1 and the Ora have plenty of power compared to smelly cars.
MG stands for Morris Garages, the name chosen by MG's founder Cecil Kimber as a show of respect for his then boss, William Morris. Cecil's vision to produce world-class sports cars quickly became a reality, and by the 1930s, MG cars were winning races across Britain and Europe and is now owned by SAIC and has its headquarters in the United Kingdom, with production in China, Thailand (since 2016), and India (since 2019) but the primary design was based at the Longbridge, Birmingham headquarters. The studio is based in a newly renovated building in the heart of London on Marylebone Road. “A completely new product on the electric car scene. A fresh, elegant and refined model that combines practicality and style”. This is how Oleg Son, Chief Designer of MG, describes the MG4, the latest zero-emission model presented by the Chinese. Volvo, polestar and Lotus are also now owned by chinese automakers. Gwm Ora, BYD, Xpeng, Geely, Chery, Nio, Changan, Aiways, Huawei, AITO, HIPHI, and Zeekr are all locally designed and manufactured in China.
The lower priced MG4 in Thailand sells for $29,735 Aud drive away price. At the moment other than perhaps for China, I think Thailand is the best place to buy an EV.
In my opinion, you should have mentioned the battery chemistry of the MG4 in your #1 position as being a 64kWHr battery as being NMC and not LFP. This is a huge dereliction on behalf of MG. For the uninitiated, an NMC - Nickle Manganese Cobalt battery - should only be charged to 80% not 100% like the battery in an Atto 3 for instance and has the potential to be a fire risk. There have been many EV fires with this battery chemistry and when I ordered my Atto 3 two years ago, it was the first thing I checked to make sure it wasn't an NMC traction battery. THIS REALLY IS A BIG DEAL.
MG4 51kWh should do very well this year, and i would seriously consider one in volcano orange. But BYD will bring their cheap Dolphin 60kWh this year so could get interesting
BYD is better finished inside but both are great value. The MG is RWD this is better all else being equal. The 51 is the only 4 to buy due same type of battery as BYD.
The MG4 is so behind the times with it's software and safety, laggy old fashioned infotainment on a basic small screen. 6 airbags instead of 7 minimum in modern cars. The base MG4 safety features are much fewer than the next grade. BYD and other car manufacturers do not put a premium on keeping you alive in a crash. BYD Dolphin is #1
We own a Lexus CT200h hybrid and I love that it has tech but it feels and drives like a real normal car. Guess we will keep it a lot longer after all Toyota/Lexus vehicles just last a long time.
MG4 is the most fun to drive, can go around a marked 45km corner at 80km plus, fully planted and controlled 50/50 weight and rear wheel drive. Everyone goes on about battery range when really the issue is bladder range, and mine is about 2 hours, also most highway codes recommend 15 min break every 2 hrs.
Meanwhile ASEAN people are drooling over these cheap Chinese EVs and keep saying Chinese brands are superior because they offer low price with good performance and build quality, meanwhile Japanese brands are stingy and their quality is getting worse, pfftt
because the Japanese legacy brands are wedded to ICE, and are desperately trying to convince everyone that hydrogen liquid fuel is the way of the future (when it isn't), just to keep their industry and supply chains going. The auto industry in Japan is HUGE, and when they start going bust, there's going to be major recessions not just there, but everywhere.
Incase you don't know, Chinese government subsidized these 'cheep' cars, it eplains why people in some regions cannot buy it, they would destory your local car industry.
Click bait! All your positives about the Ora and it’s 6th on the list? Come on man! Throw it a bone. It’s about what you rate the car, not what you think people want. Becomes a self fulfilling prophecy!
@@CarSauce Boot is the only impracticality. Lacks the height space the others have. Surely there’s more to a car’s practicality though? Is it the major determinant to a car being good on a list? 🤷♂️
@@Matt-vq8jz I'm with you. I reviewed the MG4 and the Ora, and had actually pre-ordered an MG4 based on the UK rave reviews. After driving it and finding out more about it for my review (like the crazy service costs), I cancelled the order. When I reviewed the Ora, I didn't expect to fall in love with it tbh, but I did, and bought one (HI VLTG if you see me around Perth). Fantastic car, and definitely the best value for money (if you don't have to lug tonnes of gear around, of course... even then, the back seats fold down and it's a cavernous interior).
I ordered the Ora after having it for 5 days changing it for an old nissan leaf . My wife who is Chinese loved it so as she’s the boss I couldn’t say no 😂
On the MG site I just looked at they say you can buy a new MG car (petrol no doublt) for 19,990AUD. I couldn't find an electric car there under 42,000AUD. Maybe EVs are loaded with too much computer stuff and display screens etc making them too expensive for people to buy. The price difference could buy years worth of petrol. Not hard to work out why the percentage of new EVs been sold is less than 10%.
the battery is what adds to the cost. The ICE have just as much electronics and software going on. It's the fuel, service costs (well, not with MG... very expensive imho) that you save on (massively, especially if you have solar)
My MG4 is the best car I ever had, and I´ve had many. Smooth, fast, quiet, comfortable, well built and what´s more very cheap to buy and run. Saving me a fortune by charging on cheap rate electricity at home. 400 kms range. Nothing wrong with the software or infotainment, the interior is very excellent. There´s some shite being spouted in some of these comments.
Probably because the Chinese probably think the MG is a British car, much as a lot of Europeans do. In Europe that fallacy helps sell the car, but in China that perception is probably a detrement. The Chinese when buying an EV prefer Chinese EVs.
Great list and hard to disagree! I'm seeing more and more of the MG 4, BYD Dolphin and GWM Ora on the road lately which is lovely to see. On the horizon is the Volvo EX30 too, which isn't as cheap as these options but it is a relatively affordable EV coming out of China, which will prove an interesting comparison to these vehicles and the Model Y.
Thanks for the review, and agreed there are some great EV models now in China. For price it is useful to consider the Tesla can earn money as a Robotaxi starting 2024/2025 that pushes Tesla above Chinese and also every other model in terms of cost.
MG4 is terrible user interface 1- Head light can’t go off while the car is on. To turn all lights off you must to turn the car off. 2- car windows don’t raise up when you lock the car (MG said car don’t have this functionality 😕) 3- if the head lights is on and you lock the car the lights will still on. ( I believe we figured it out back on 90’s but this smart car don’t know) 4- The system doesn’t save. To drive using one pedal mode and eco. I do need this every time. (4 slow steps to get there) 5- Car Play keeps disconnecting even with genuine cable 6- If the car is charging and I lock it when I do unlocked makes a loud beep and wake up everyone around. 7- Inside light led turn on when you turn the head light on very annoying drive at night with that you your face.
easy... firstly, it's not really price you need to think about... it's VALUE FOR MONEY. And then you have to think about your own use case.... you might need an SUV style (so Atto3, Kona, E-Niro or Model Y are your best choices, depending on your budget and what they offer), or a hatchback (so a base Ora is the best value, but only if you don't need a bigger boot). I think the European marques are the worst value for money (Merc, BMW mainly). They are also amongst the most inefficient. Efficiency is KING for EV's. Check out the EV Database and filter for efficiency. I have a rule though.... if whatever EV you are looking at, is within $10k of a Tesla.... get the Tesla.
Hi, greetings from Jakarta. All the vehicles you mentioned are identical to those sold in Indonesia, except for the Ora which will only enter the market this year. Maybe you should wait a little longer to try the Omoda 5 EV, a compact SUV from Cherry which has been assembled locally and is planned to be exported. It is a comparable competitor to the Atto 3, in fact many people ( including my father :)) say it is better in terms of driver orientation and value for money.
Love the reviewes I have a long range mg4 the handling is fantastic it's extremely comfortable with heated seats and steering wheel goes way quicker than it needs to be i charge it for free with solar. Power my office for a couple of days a week with the vl2 capability. Real world get 440km range and on a salaray sacrifice its a no brainer. Is it perfect no but i have a LandCruiser for all the other stuff 😊
I like the Dolphin if I were to choose a cheap Chinese EV, but helas, why would I when there are far better quality EVs around the corner at a decent price point too? Kia's EV3 is a strong contender. That's where my attention is being chanelled. Another entertaining saucy review! Cheers, mate!
@@CarSauce don’t be sad. But, have a different title ;p Ps we still love you, just not this title. “Which Chinese brands should you avoid and which ones should be on your list”
Yes, Xpeng Motors is the best Chinese brand, which is made internationally, very effectively! Many othets vrands search oriblems by not controlling things as Tesla or Xpeng Motors do!
In Europe, these chinese EVs are also called "breadcrumb cars". You can see where they are, by following the trail of all the parts they lost from the moment they left the showroom...
Greeting from UK 🇬🇧 A month ago I bought MG4 Long Range 64 kWh, oh man I love that car it’s just amazing! Price paid : 20 000£ Brand new! 😊 Subscribed! 🫡 Keep up the good work!
The cruel truth is that the EV market is developing. They all have some faults. It’s a process of finding cars which suit different sectors. The MG 4 is the obvious pick. It’s innovative and sort of picks up on the way MG used to build cars. Nice handling, good appearance, value for money and all important just enough compromises to make it affordable for the average punter. (Think MG TC, TD, MGB)
What a bunch of CRAP : its slow but its fast - its quirky but its wonderful - its small but roomy - its cheap but good - it has lots of problems but easy to live with - its inadequate but delivers . Help me buy a new car : I DO NOT THINK SO
Dont charge to 100%?? What electric car company allows you to charge to the battery's actual 100% if there is a chance of damage? I would imagine they shut down charging at an empirical value that meets battery safety as well as their marketing reqts? You should be able to leave the car on the charger, and allow the car's "smarts" to fully manage battery charging.
Exactly. It wears continental’s best summer tyres in china. I dont know why BYD decided to use conti’s eco tyres for other markets. Eco tyres on a car that goes from 0-100 im 3.8 seconds!
Isn't the big problem with the MG4 the LKA which Robert Llewellyn described as an unruly 5 year old trying to grab the steering wheel? 😅 Plus you have to turn it off every time you hop in the car.
That, unfortunately, is an issue in most modern cars (ICE or EV), as they want to all be 5-star ANCAP rated, so the stupid over-active Nanny is installed. Matt said as much in his Mahindra review (it doesn't have the stars, because of the stupid safety nanny ANCAP want now).
I've had an MG4 for some weeks now. Done 2000km and I've never had a problem with the LKA. I think it might have been fixed at the last software update. It's a terrific car.
WLTP for NMC batteried EVs should be shown at the 80% charge rate and if you did that the MG4 (except 51) should fall lower on the list. IMO Seal Dynamic and Atto 3 with LFP are better bang for buck. MG4 64 is really only 52kW and real WLTP 350km. The software on MG4 is also super annoying and requires switching off aids every trip. The bland interior grey! Boring.
Don’t buy cheap Chinese electric cars. It’s the long term reliability, spare parts availability and a dealer base that’s to small uk wide. You get what you pay for don’t forget this. BYD (Build Your Dreams), GWM ( Great Wall Motors) these are just a couple of the cheap Chinese electric car manufacturers in the UK now. You have to ask yourself why are they so cheap?
"I'll never buy a Chinese car! How would you know the build quality! Must be a snail on wheels! What if in a few years time it's a dud? Use your money wisely mate!" - Man on a 4-year waitlist for a $100k bog stock Land Cruiser built in Thailand.
I just have an Aston Martin DB12 V8 £225K the the BYD seal pissed over my car also the Tesla 3 Y model did it too. I thought Aston Martin may going to offers free likes shoes , cap, clothing etc.maybe free surgery all Aston Martin driver looked alike Daniel C .😂😂😂😂😢😢😢🎉🎉
But battery car, living in Australia. Is it even possible to travel across the country? Can't be charging stations along the dirt roads. Since it's the outbacks, no power in the dessert. So staying only in the city, you may go cheaper with a scooter. I'm sorry but thinking about Australia road trains and ICE 4x4, there is a reason for it. And then battery tools die we all know that, but this toy costs like a house.
Found the reviews really interesting - but somewhat of a contradictory title?? 'Avoid these cheap Chinese vehicles', yet your no.1 on the list is one of the best EVs you've driven?? Have to agree with that, as I own an MG4 Long Range Trophy and it's terrific. Have to agree with you over the MG4 X Power - totally defeats the object of the range and in reality is completely impractical. But come on - why openly state 'AVOID' when you get so excited about the top one - the MG4 has been a game changer right from the off. Avoid and regret avoiding more like....
Very misleading clickbait title. Some people, like me, skip the intro and then it just looks like you are trashing all Chinese EVs. Don't you want people to watch your videos?
Thank you for the review, here in Indonesia we are also being invaded by Chinese EVs with price wars. Recently, the Omoda E5 was just launched, the electric motor and battery are similar to the Atto3, but its performance is more impressive. 0-100 km/h can be reached in 6.6 seconds

I have sat in all these cars, and as I am 6’4” tall and in my seventies, there are only 2 that I can sit in comfortably. The BYD Atto 3 and the GWM Ora. All the others even the Dolphin feel incredibly small inside. The MG4 is like sitting in a pregnant skateboard! The Ora was ok, only 2 of us and a dog so not worried about space, but the GWM dealer in Hallam, Vic was more interested in selling Tank 300 than talk to me about electric cars. So we left them all and went home.

I'm more of a sedan guy, so I tend to gravitate towardst the BYD Seal. In Aussie, the base Dynamic starts at 49,888 which is pretty compelling. It is heavy though, near 2 tonnes, which makes something like the Ora (Funky Cat) very interesting for weighing "only" 1500kg. That's positively feather-weight for an EV.
Overall I agree with the list, but might put the Seal Premium at the top of the list.
Well the Model 3 RWD is a much bigger car with a bigger battery and it's only 1800kg.
@@mondotv4216 yes and no. Tesla RWD has a 60kwh battery and weighs just under 1800kg. The Seal Dynamic has a 61kwh battery and is just over 1900kg. So similar battery and the Seal is a little heavier.
Seal and Model 3 have near identical dimensions also.
The higher range Seal does go well over 2 tonnes, and is therefore much heavier than the Model 3 LR and Performance
It would be top of my list too, but the low ground clearance might be a deal killer for me. A driveway at work already catches the front of my Leaf, Seal would be painful there. But the Premium looks the goods, arguably a better deal than the Tesla especially at the price.
We have the Atto 3 and love it.
@@nadnerb2k my sister runs the Atto 3. They love it as they have 2 kids and run solar panels. They don't pay for power or fuel!
The interior is a little too funky for me, and I like sedans so it's the Seal for me.
I wonder if the bit that sticks out under the front lip can be removed to increase ground clearance. Guess I'll find out soon! Take delivery of my Seal Dynamic next week.
the main issue with m3 is no v2l
I'd go the entry level MG4 for the better battery that won't burn your house down
Well, that's the car I love, but maybe you need to realise that NMC batteries aren't going to burn your house down either.
All the batteries are fine. BYD batteries go in the Berlin made Tesla's. GWM have had their own battery subsidiary for decades, who do a lot of research. MG have great batteries too it seems. Only one's I've ever heard could be dodgy were LG Chem batteries (e.g. in the GM Volt). There have been 6 EV fires in Australia.... 2 were arson, 3 were when the house caught fire first, and one was just a battery pack left out in the rain. ICE are 20x more likely to catch fire.
@@stormjuice I've seen heaps of EV fires, the difference is ICE won't self combust in the garage while you're sleeping and they're a whole lot easier to put out.
@@justice4g Combustion cars can and do burn while off, to the point that some BMW models had advice from BMW to not park them in your garage. Yes, EVs are harder to put out if the main battery goes into runaway, but they burn a whole lot less. Also you've seen loads of EV fires? Do you mean youtube videos, or actually seen? Cause there have been really very few EV fires. I've seen one (hybrid), but it was arson. There are loads of cheap ebike/scotter etc battery fires as they are often not standards compliant and don't have proper management but that doesn't equate to EVs.
@@justice4gyou have seen those Evs caught online because they get an unfair media (mass or social) coverage while ICE cars catching fires don’t. I used to think like you until my own parents in law’s 6 month new Subaru SUV had an electric system issue which resulted in frying and smoking and the car was totalled. They told me that luckily the car was not parked in the garage or near anything that would catch fire easily. After that incident they started telling me all the ICE cars catching on fire stories and almost everyone they talked to knows someone who had an issue in this category, and the rate of ICE cars having such problems is way higher than we are aware of.
Hyundai and Kia need to lower their prices to compete, they are way way too expensive, I can get a Tesla for less than a Kia EV6
Totally agree
Agree. The Ioniq 5 is a fantastic car, I'd pick it over any of the Chinese, but it's just too expensive.
@@nadnerb2k Don't forget China subsidies their EV's.
@@Tas1962b South Korea, Japan, Germany, France, and the United States, which country does not subsidize its own cars? Can you find one?
@@nadnerb2k what's good about this car. haven't driven it but sat inside, the interior part didn't show much advantages
Click bait…please don’t guys!
Wasn’t our intention 🥲
Don't watch it if you don't like it, simple.
@@CarSauce "avoid these cars" doesn't remotely match with the content of the video. You talk about 7 cars, and even your second least favourite car gets a fairly decent review and is only marked down for being attention-getting and quirky?
I wouldn't say avoid the video, but honest title please. "We rank Chinese EVs" or something like that would be much more honest.
I own the atto 3. None of the others except the ZS EV were available when I bought 9 months ago. Test drove the Xpower a couple weeks ago which was a HOOT, but yeah wouldn't buy. If I was shopping today, Seal Premium would be on top of my list except for the low ground clearance. MG4 - the laggy infotainment lets it down. Atto 3, still a solid contender, we love ours - 89 not 80kW fast charging, yes a tad slow but still serves us well on road trips. Ora - I didn't fit in it unless I put the seat all the way down which was uncomfortable.
@Renegade040 doesn't matter. They made video in public platfrom and are free to express views.
@@nadnerb2kwell, it made you click on the video didn't it? Not siding with them and click bait but youtube does kinda force creators to have catchy/ baity titles.
The Lithium Phosphate Iron battery safety & ability to charge to 100% on a regular basis with little degradation, gives the BYD Atto3 & Dolphin a big advantage over the other cars you reviewed.
the MG4 base model has it too
Apart from the base MG but your point is taken.
And Ora base version.
They aren't safe. The lithium is the flammable part.
@@robertkubrick3738No. The liquid electrolyte is the flammable part.
This is what is usually the problem.
But if you are scared about a flammable material in your vehicle, then why would you ever drive an ICE vehicle again??
EV fires are extremely rare. Only because the media hyper focuses on EV fires does not mean that that they are a common thing.
slow charging is probably setup to avoid overheating issues
The same battery is in the model Y in Germany and that charges at 170kW up to 50%. But Tesla thermal management might be better.
Gotta agree. Not in Australia, but the MG4 is the absolute tops. I chose the 51 kwh battery because that goes far enough for me on a daily basis, but if you do longer trips, go for the same trim in the 64 kwh. There's no contest.
Ok reasonable rankings...but seriously though, the MG4 interior is NOT premium, I had a good look a couple weeks ago and it was the absolute worst interior of any EV I had ever seen. It was cheap and nasty, "premium" is not a word I'd use to describe it.
Same boat here. Shocker, for $40k+
@@Matt-vq8jz Mate I couldn't believe it when I sat in it, absolutely shocking, felt like the interior materials of a car from the early 2000s!
From what I've seen the Funky cat has a nicer interior than the MG4.
For me, when I drove the Seal, the interior felt close enough to my Alfa Giulia that it didn't feel like a downgrade. Which is good enough for me especially since the Seal I've just bought cost less than half of what I paid for my Giulia.
@@GT86crazy Absolutely agree, the Ora definitely has a much nicer interior made of quality materials. The Seal however...Heaven! I loved it so much I ordered a Premium!
@@kitxxxxkit I'm suitably impressed with the Seal interior. It's not perfect mind you, I'd like NO piano black plastic, especially at touch points like the buttons on the centre console. But for the price? Seal is punching above its weight.
I have driven the MG ZS EV Mk1 and the basic Ora and they are both excellent cars. As you comment, the Ora could do with a bigger boot. The range of both is perfectly adequate for city cars. The second-hand MG ZS EV Mk1s are very good value. More advanced cars are coming on to the market but these cars still do their job and do it well. It is true the MG ZS EV is built on a multi-setup platform which can be used for petrol, plug in hybrid or BEV but it is still pretty efficient and hopefully the common platform will make it easier to obtain the parts that are common to the ZS EVs and the ZS petrol cars. Both the Mk1 and the Ora have plenty of power compared to smelly cars.
MG stands for Morris Garages, the name chosen by MG's founder Cecil Kimber as a show of respect for his then boss, William Morris. Cecil's vision to produce world-class sports cars quickly became a reality, and by the 1930s, MG cars were winning races across Britain and Europe and is now owned by SAIC and has its headquarters in the United Kingdom, with production in China, Thailand (since 2016), and India (since 2019) but the primary design was based at the Longbridge, Birmingham headquarters. The studio is based in a newly renovated building in the heart of London on Marylebone Road. “A completely new product on the electric car scene. A fresh, elegant and refined model that combines practicality and style”. This is how Oleg Son, Chief Designer of MG, describes the MG4, the latest zero-emission model presented by the Chinese. Volvo, polestar and Lotus are also now owned by chinese automakers. Gwm Ora, BYD, Xpeng, Geely, Chery, Nio, Changan, Aiways, Huawei, AITO, HIPHI, and Zeekr are all locally designed and manufactured in China.
Cut and paste from Wikipedia, thanks. MG are sadly behind the times. BYD are light years ahead, Maybe MG should have their headquarters in China.
The Chinese meant to put Rover brand on their MG cars but they were butt-fked by Ford who sold the Rover brand 😮😮😢😢to JLR
The lower priced MG4 in Thailand sells for $29,735 Aud drive away price. At the moment other than perhaps for China, I think Thailand is the best place to buy an EV.
I got the higher end MG4 Luxury/Trophy for 27k€ in France. Nice car, pretty happy with it.
In my opinion, you should have mentioned the battery chemistry of the MG4 in your #1 position as being a 64kWHr battery as being NMC and not LFP. This is a huge dereliction on behalf of MG. For the uninitiated, an NMC - Nickle Manganese Cobalt battery - should only be charged to 80% not 100% like the battery in an Atto 3 for instance and has the potential to be a fire risk. There have been many EV fires with this battery chemistry and when I ordered my Atto 3 two years ago, it was the first thing I checked to make sure it wasn't an NMC traction battery. THIS REALLY IS A BIG DEAL.
Thats not correct - only the Comfort, Luxury and X-Power have NMCs, the standard as shown in #1 Position in this Video has LFP!
I couldn't agree more, LFP is far more superior. NMC is risky, impractical and dangerous. BYD are leaders by only using LFP batteries 😊😊
MG4 51kWh should do very well this year, and i would seriously consider one in volcano orange. But BYD will bring their cheap Dolphin 60kWh this year so could get interesting
BYD is better finished inside but both are great value. The MG is RWD this is better all else being equal. The 51 is the only 4 to buy due same type of battery as BYD.
The MG4 is so behind the times with it's software and safety, laggy old fashioned infotainment on a basic small screen. 6 airbags instead of 7 minimum in modern cars. The base MG4 safety features are much fewer than the next grade. BYD and other car manufacturers do not put a premium on keeping you alive in a crash. BYD Dolphin is #1
Just bought brand new MG4 51 for $31k and 10yrs warranty lol. Thank you kamerad Xi
Always like seeing Car review’s rank the best cars in their opinion. Looking forward to your Seal vs Tesla M3 review. Thanks Matt
The MG Electric range is very popular in the UK , much more than any of the other Chinese brands .
Having compared the Ora Cat, BYD Dolphin and MG4 - and bought the MG4 - I fully agree.
IN SG, the MG4, dolphin and Atto3 are within 10k of each other. In those cases, I will choose the atto 3 for the whole package.
We own a Lexus CT200h hybrid and I love that it has tech but it feels and drives like a real normal car. Guess we will keep it a lot longer after all Toyota/Lexus vehicles just last a long time.
MG4 is the most fun to drive, can go around a marked 45km corner at 80km plus, fully planted and controlled 50/50 weight and rear wheel drive. Everyone goes on about battery range when really the issue is bladder range, and mine is about 2 hours, also most highway codes recommend 15 min break every 2 hrs.
The MG is your favourite car of 2024 how when 2024 has just begun?
Good point lady!
Meanwhile ASEAN people are drooling over these cheap Chinese EVs and keep saying Chinese brands are superior because they offer low price with good performance and build quality, meanwhile Japanese brands are stingy and their quality is getting worse, pfftt
because the Japanese legacy brands are wedded to ICE, and are desperately trying to convince everyone that hydrogen liquid fuel is the way of the future (when it isn't), just to keep their industry and supply chains going. The auto industry in Japan is HUGE, and when they start going bust, there's going to be major recessions not just there, but everywhere.
Incase you don't know, Chinese government subsidized these 'cheep' cars, it eplains why people in some regions cannot buy it, they would destory your local car industry.
Just a week ago I bought a BYD Atto 3 superior here in Nepal ,a hot selling car and it's fantastic.
Our mg zs ev is awesome. It is the perfect second car to our model y.
Imagine what this review would have been like if it had been based on the low $30s that the MG4 Excite 51 is now.
Matt, are you reviewing the GWM Tank 500 HEV ?
Yes (eventually!)
Click bait! All your positives about the Ora and it’s 6th on the list? Come on man! Throw it a bone. It’s about what you rate the car, not what you think people want. Becomes a self fulfilling prophecy!
The practicality is what ruins it for me, hence no. 6
@@CarSauce Boot is the only impracticality. Lacks the height space the others have. Surely there’s more to a car’s practicality though? Is it the major determinant to a car being good on a list? 🤷♂️
@@Matt-vq8jz I'm with you. I reviewed the MG4 and the Ora, and had actually pre-ordered an MG4 based on the UK rave reviews. After driving it and finding out more about it for my review (like the crazy service costs), I cancelled the order. When I reviewed the Ora, I didn't expect to fall in love with it tbh, but I did, and bought one (HI VLTG if you see me around Perth). Fantastic car, and definitely the best value for money (if you don't have to lug tonnes of gear around, of course... even then, the back seats fold down and it's a cavernous interior).
I ordered the Ora after having it for 5 days changing it for an old nissan leaf . My wife who is Chinese loved it so as she’s the boss I couldn’t say no 😂
GWM ORA WAS A BAD CAR. I OWNED ONE AND I REGRET IT. I happily lost thousands to get rid of it.
On the MG site I just looked at they say you can buy a new MG car (petrol no doublt) for 19,990AUD. I couldn't find an electric car there under 42,000AUD. Maybe EVs are loaded with too much computer stuff and display screens etc making them too expensive for people to buy. The price difference could buy years worth of petrol. Not hard to work out why the percentage of new EVs been sold is less than 10%.
the battery is what adds to the cost. The ICE have just as much electronics and software going on. It's the fuel, service costs (well, not with MG... very expensive imho) that you save on (massively, especially if you have solar)
It’s a nicely done video ranking the different Chinese cars, but thanks to that title, I now know to avoid them.
Loving my EV! Best car I’ve had in 40 plus years of driving!
Yup! EV gives me good feeling CLEAN!
My MG4 is the best car I ever had, and I´ve had many. Smooth, fast, quiet, comfortable, well built and what´s more very cheap to buy and run. Saving me a fortune by charging on cheap rate electricity at home. 400 kms range. Nothing wrong with the software or infotainment, the interior is very excellent. There´s some shite being spouted in some of these comments.
You almost can't see MG4 on the roads in China.
Price is higher than ID.3 in China. And you will have much more choice in this price range in China.
@@PingAnLi Very correct
Probably because the Chinese probably think the MG is a British car, much as a lot of Europeans do. In Europe that fallacy helps sell the car, but in China that perception is probably a detrement. The Chinese when buying an EV prefer Chinese EVs.
@@georgewarriner4017 Tesla isn't Chinese, but is near the top of their sales list.
@@stormjuice Not any more. You can't drive a tesla near a military base or anything they consider politically sensitive. Practically useless car now.
Can't wait I can get a hold and buy one of those Chinese electric cars.
Great list and hard to disagree! I'm seeing more and more of the MG 4, BYD Dolphin and GWM Ora on the road lately which is lovely to see.
On the horizon is the Volvo EX30 too, which isn't as cheap as these options but it is a relatively affordable EV coming out of China, which will prove an interesting comparison to these vehicles and the Model Y.
Thanks for the review, and agreed there are some great EV models now in China. For price it is useful to consider the Tesla can earn money as a Robotaxi starting 2024/2025 that pushes Tesla above Chinese and also every other model in terms of cost.
MG4 is terrible user interface
1- Head light can’t go off while the car is on. To turn all lights off you must to turn the car off.
2- car windows don’t raise up when you lock the car (MG said car don’t have this functionality 😕)
3- if the head lights is on and you lock the car the lights will still on. ( I believe we figured it out back on 90’s but this smart car don’t know)
4- The system doesn’t save. To drive using one pedal mode and eco. I do need this every time. (4 slow steps to get there)
5- Car Play keeps disconnecting even with genuine cable
6- If the car is charging and I lock it when I do unlocked makes a loud beep and wake up everyone around.
7- Inside light led turn on when you turn the head light on very annoying drive at night with that you your face.
Darn, I wish those are available in the US and also more chargers in the US. We have a darth of small cars here
Just don't pour your $$ down the BEV depreciation bowl & she'll be right.
Can You make a video for avoiding to buy these expensive EV car, so we won't get scam from buying an over priced EV car?
easy... firstly, it's not really price you need to think about... it's VALUE FOR MONEY. And then you have to think about your own use case.... you might need an SUV style (so Atto3, Kona, E-Niro or Model Y are your best choices, depending on your budget and what they offer), or a hatchback (so a base Ora is the best value, but only if you don't need a bigger boot).
I think the European marques are the worst value for money (Merc, BMW mainly). They are also amongst the most inefficient. Efficiency is KING for EV's. Check out the EV Database and filter for efficiency.
I have a rule though.... if whatever EV you are looking at, is within $10k of a Tesla.... get the Tesla.
They give a great warranty , you don’t get much warranty with Ford or BMW or any of the others .
Atto3 any day for me with a bigger boot of 440 + . And the new continental tyres
That GWM Ora 2:20 looks cute, never heard of this before
Hi, greetings from Jakarta.
All the vehicles you mentioned are identical to those sold in Indonesia, except for the Ora which will only enter the market this year.
Maybe you should wait a little longer to try the Omoda 5 EV, a compact SUV from Cherry which has been assembled locally and is planned to be exported.
It is a comparable competitor to the Atto 3, in fact many people ( including my father :)) say it is better in terms of driver orientation and value for money.
Atto 3 is the best out of all. It provides lots of features for the price and it’s a value for money car
Love the reviewes I have a long range mg4 the handling is fantastic it's extremely comfortable with heated seats and steering wheel goes way quicker than it needs to be i charge it for free with solar. Power my office for a couple of days a week with the vl2 capability. Real world get 440km range and on a salaray sacrifice its a no brainer. Is it perfect no but i have a LandCruiser for all the other stuff 😊
I like the Dolphin if I were to choose a cheap Chinese EV, but helas, why would I when there are far better quality EVs around the corner at a decent price point too? Kia's EV3 is a strong contender. That's where my attention is being chanelled. Another entertaining saucy review! Cheers, mate!

Price paid : 20 000£

Keep up the good work!
I really like the front styling on the MG4 but the back looks terrible
The cruel truth is that the EV market is developing. They all have some faults. It’s a process of finding cars which suit different sectors. The MG 4 is the obvious pick. It’s innovative and sort of picks up on the way MG used to build cars. Nice handling, good appearance, value for money and all important just enough compromises to make it affordable for the average punter. (Think MG TC, TD, MGB)
If only the MG4 had Lithium Iron Phosphate battery
The Excite51 does, unfortunately the higher spec versions don't though.
Base does.
Isn't hyundai Korean?
What a bunch of CRAP : its slow but its fast - its quirky but its wonderful - its small but roomy - its cheap but good - it has lots of problems but easy to live with - its inadequate but delivers . Help me buy a new car : I DO NOT THINK SO
Exactly what I got
So if the title says to avoid, then avoid everything on this list especially the top 1 MG4
The BYD Seal looks better than all the other crappy looking EV's....
Dont charge to 100%??
What electric car company allows you to charge to the battery's actual 100% if there is a chance of damage? I would imagine they shut down charging at an empirical value that meets battery safety as well as their marketing reqts? You should be able to leave the car on the charger, and allow the car's "smarts" to fully manage battery charging.

What happens to cheap Chinese power tool the same as cheap cars in general ice and evs
MG4 interior is garbage! I don’t know how you can remotely call that premium.
The Seal performance with better tyres would be a massive improvement
Exactly. It wears continental’s best summer tyres in china. I dont know why BYD decided to use conti’s eco tyres for other markets. Eco tyres on a car that goes from 0-100 im 3.8 seconds!
Isn't the big problem with the MG4 the LKA which Robert Llewellyn described as an unruly 5 year old trying to grab the steering wheel? 😅 Plus you have to turn it off every time you hop in the car.
That would be the AWD not RWD and the 51 is the only one to buy due LFP battery.
@@VidServ-o5o Don't they all come with LKA?
That, unfortunately, is an issue in most modern cars (ICE or EV), as they want to all be 5-star ANCAP rated, so the stupid over-active Nanny is installed. Matt said as much in his Mahindra review (it doesn't have the stars, because of the stupid safety nanny ANCAP want now).
@@stormjuice Not a problem in my Tesla or my Atto 3 (where I can turn it off once and it stays off)
I've had an MG4 for some weeks now. Done 2000km and I've never had a problem with the LKA. I think it might have been fixed at the last software update. It's a terrific car.
WLTP for NMC batteried EVs should be shown at the 80% charge rate and if you did that the MG4 (except 51) should fall lower on the list.
IMO Seal Dynamic and Atto 3 with LFP are better bang for buck.
MG4 64 is really only 52kW and real WLTP 350km.
The software on MG4 is also super annoying and requires switching off aids every trip.
The bland interior grey! Boring.
Downvoted. You're just talking about 7 cars with not many reasons to avoid (or is it buy, quite confusing) the cars.
Don’t buy cheap Chinese electric cars. It’s the long term reliability, spare parts availability and a dealer base that’s to small uk wide. You get what you pay for don’t forget this. BYD (Build Your Dreams), GWM ( Great Wall Motors) these are just a couple of the cheap Chinese electric car manufacturers in the UK now. You have to ask yourself why are they so cheap?
Economies of Scale. Go look it up
Atto 3 is about 37K gbp new so hardly cheap....

After watching this video my conclusion is that the only thing i should avoid is this channel.
But battery car, living in Australia. Is it even possible to travel across the country? Can't be charging stations along the dirt roads. Since it's the outbacks, no power in the dessert. So staying only in the city, you may go cheaper with a scooter. I'm sorry but thinking about Australia road trains and ICE 4x4, there is a reason for it. And then battery tools die we all know that, but this toy costs like a house.
Maybe that made sense to you
Found the reviews really interesting - but somewhat of a contradictory title?? 'Avoid these cheap Chinese vehicles', yet your no.1 on the list is one of the best EVs you've driven?? Have to agree with that, as I own an MG4 Long Range Trophy and it's terrific. Have to agree with you over the MG4 X Power - totally defeats the object of the range and in reality is completely impractical. But come on - why openly state 'AVOID' when you get so excited about the top one - the MG4 has been a game changer right from the off. Avoid and regret avoiding more like....

Thank you for the review, here in Indonesia we are also being invaded by Chinese EVs with price wars.
