- This week on the DoneDeal TH-cam channel we're driving the new MG MG4. It's a fully electric hatchback, with two battery sizes and two specs - which makes picking the car you want very easy.
It's also fantastically well priced with a starting price of €27,495 all the way into the mid €30,000s.
Whilst the smaller battery (51kWh) has a decent 350km range, it's the 64kWh version we would recommend as it has a very impressive 450km range!
To drive around town it's very easy to manoeuvre, and where there is any poor visibility, the MG4's onboard cameras pick up the slack - they're very good!
Quality is always a worry when buying a car that's relatively 'new' to the market, however for the most part the MG4 is well put together using high quality materials.
We really think the MG4 is the real deal and would highly recommend you heading to your local dealer if you're interested in getting a well priced family EV.

Hi Dave - thanks for the review, glad you enjoyed the MG4. The steering wheel has two shortcut buttons one of which can be used for climate control which makes it really easy to access when driving 😀
Yes, it seems almost all re-viewers, re-view and say what they see straight away, without finding out more of what it actually can do and functions.
That’s a great tip! I’ll know for next time. Thank you 🚘
@MG_Ireland
Get with bringing entry level electric cars MG3, 2, 1. Remember the MG Dynamo Electric ?
No rear speakers/camera/wiper/sat nav. on the poor versions. Like the power connector is in rear. No cars available for 6 months?????
Great review. Getting mine early May, I'm very excited!
What’s wrong with the center arm rest missing? That’s just a basic need - Excellent presentation thank you
Would wish MG start with the 3, 2 and 1.
Back in 2014 they teased a small EV called the Dynamo electric. It was a rebadged Chinese Roewe e50 and would still meet everyone's expectations for an entry level EV now
That is a gorgeous colour, a great thorough video as always👍
It’s Camden Grey, I ordered my MG4 Trophy model in Camden Grey last September and it should be with me early March, can’t wait.
@Andrew Tucker I bet you can't wait, enjoy when it arrives.
Looks like I won't be getting mine before end of June going by that timeline (I ordered in Jan)
Grey
What a fair review 🎉fantastic
Great video, well presented.
Thank you Andrew
ordering my mg4 trophy in #teamgrey in october cant wait tbh first time EV user after a lifetime of unleaded lol
also liked and subbed buddy :)
All these electrical bits, seats,steering wheel etc! Are they all powered by the 12volt battery ? The AA have many calls due to flat 12volt batteries , not the traction battery
Gorgeous colour!What colour is that?
MG4 sure looks like a great value. Too bad we can’t get them in the US.
Be thankful, they’re garbage
We cannot either, no stock for 6 months. Crazy launch with no stock
@@Irishgamer01 Which country?
Many decent cars we cannot get in USA, because of crooked politics
Hi can you place video how properly put in and out charging plug? I've seen few broken socket on Facebook forums and high prices for fixing in MG service. Also how is possible brake charging pin?
Some people had a problem when charging overnight and the flap got frozen in place. If they for a bit too forceful a pin involved in the hinge mechanism broke.
@@Draigthedragon exactly lots of people don't know that certain items break if forced enough ie tv remote etc
Well done MG. Seriously thinking of trading my Leaf for one but I can decide on which spec to go for!! Not completely sold on spoiler in exclusive.
It certainly would be a nice move from the Leaf. The Leaf is a great car however the MG feels a little more modern and is more engaging to drive.
If only they offer the trophy version with smaller battery. That would have been great with the extras as it is on different battery technology
@@JohnDoe-pc6xr And is the superior battery technology of the two on offer I believe?
@@Brian-om2hh the basic spec uses LFP which is smaller in capacity but better, no 80% limit for day to day use and apparently last twice as long over the long range version.
Think about it, what's the point of buying long range that has about 100km extra range but to prevent longevity of the battery you use only 80% most of the time.
I saw 200 KW/h chargers in Tuam :) Our Ioniq 5 charges at 150 KW/h, but I never saw that. I consider over 50, good.
Agreed, if you can get of 50kw it’s usually quite quick!
The MG4 64 kW battery loads with 140 kW up to 55% charging state, even in Winter.
The exterior colour is lovely
Grey.
BYD will be with you soon. The Atto 3 is awesome too.
Will the price be awesome?
@@CastleKnight7 yeah
There is no stock of MG4 so BYD could steal MG's thunder
Check out The Electric Viking video on the Atto 3 .. Car is showing signs of corrosion after just 6 months ..
@@brinsleyp51d wow, will do. Cannot stand the electric viking
This guy is gorgeous ❤
I always thought the eSoul would be the "killer budget EV". No one ever talks about it... only Niro and Kona.
The Niro is 38k, hardly budget...
The Soul EV before would, if it wasn't upgraded in plushness
It’s stance let’s it down - look at the space in those arches and the inset rear wheels. Bigger wheels and a wider track - car lowered - would make a massive difference
All MGs are the same, they look awful
@@WelovedaxiesOn the contrary, they look stylish.
Stance ? Are you 12 ?
It’s beautiful. But I don’t have £30k
Even the cheapest second hand EVs are out of reach, too much in demand. If only more were sold back in 2013, 2014, etc
None available for 6 months. Its Feb. 2023. so July/Aug. So not really launched. Power connection is in the rear, yet no reversing camera on cheaper models? Or rear wiper. so good luck reversing into power stations. No built in sat nav, cheaper models, and no rear speakers for radio. Let me repeat no REAR SPEAKERS FOR RADIO. CHEAPER MODELS. So glaring omissions. BYD to launch later this year. The model trim reviewed is 8k more than base and prices has grant taken off.
The Chinese century is coming!
It is Chinese, so I doubt BMW are that worried. Interesting how is retained the English MG name to sell it to us rather than giving it a distinct Chinese name, in case we wouldn't buy it.
Just like Lotus, just like Volvo, just like Tesla………
Do the Japanese give their cars Japanese names, no. Everyone including you know SAIC is a Chinese company which bought the brand name to do as it pleased so it would not have legal problem,s using the brand. Tata motors did the same with land rover. Now they design the cars and continue to keep the brand name alive because many older people will be familiar with those names.
Is there a heat pump?
Only the highest variant "Trophy".
@@martinv.352 Not here or UK.
@@MegaHorse7 Interesting. In Germany, the highest variant is called "Luxury" (funny, it is an english expression, Germans love english expressions...) and it has got a heat pump. The SE Long Range (in Germany "Comfort") has no heat pump. I have this variant, and I don't really miss it. In Winter, I drive fully clothed (display 20-22 degrees which is much lower in fact) and I had got 18 kWh/100 km average.
Still an on going oil leàk fault.
getting boring, that oil leak (mist) was due to the very first models and not on my team of mgs
The back is terribly designed. The spoilers spoil the whole design + actually increase consumption. No rear wiper? Really? I live in a country with lots of snow and rain, dust - am I not supposed to see anything? What good is all the high tech without a basic safety feature like a wiper? Will they next time omit the front wipers too? To make it even more "futuristic"? Otherwise, it would have been a great car.
no rear wipers on Tesla or my jaguar I pace
spot on. There is no stock for this car. There is no stock for 6 months.
Ugh no one pedal driving, why bother buying it? one pedal is must in an electric car. Buy a GWM ORA
I don’t think I could buy anything from China. I don’t have confidence in how the country treats its workers. But, I appreciate your review as always.👍❤️
China have yearly increase in wages which putt every western country to shame. So even after been looted and stripped by western colonialism they have had the fastest increase in living standards ever recorded in history. Now western countries are desperate trying to plunge the Chinese people back in to complete poverty to safeguard the evaporating western hegemony so the western populating are being indoctrinated in racist anti Chinese propaganda.
@@ensteffo I think it’s wise to support fair trade as much as possible. Nothing racist in my comment.
Way and wipe your arse
@@paullynass4848 don’t need to, Paul. 😂😂🤦♂️
If you research SAIC you'll see they're a decent employer.
Probably better than Tesla and their idiot in chief. 😂
No im not thinking of switching and won't be.
