MG has updated its MG4 electric vehicle for the European market, focusing on key interior and technical refinements rather than exterior styling. The model remains one of the most affordable EVs in its segment.

Interior Changes

Externally, the MG4 is largely unchanged, featuring a revised front bumper, new alloy wheels, and an updated spoiler. The main updates are concentrated inside the cabin.

The interior has been completely redesigned, drawing heavily from the MG5 crossover. Materials, build quality, and overall perceived quality have been improved. Importantly, physical buttons for key functions have been retained, a feature that sets it apart from many rivals.

Powertrain and Batteries

The lineup now includes 64 kWh and 77 kWh battery options, with the base version featuring a smaller battery being discontinued. The electric motor's power has been reduced to 190 horsepower, but torque has increased to 350 Nm, keeping performance on par with before.

The 0-100 km/h sprint takes about 7.1 seconds, with a range of approximately 400 km. Fast-charging capability has been improved to 154 kW, allowing a charge from 10% to 80% in roughly 25 minutes.

Pricing and Positioning

The MG4's main advantage remains its price. Even after this update, it is significantly cheaper than many competitors, including newer Chinese models and European EVs. Sales are already underway in Europe, including Spain. Pricing starts at around €37,500 for the Long Range version and goes up to €42,000 for the XPower, excluding subsidies.

Overall, the 2026 MG4 is not a revolution but a targeted refresh. The car has become more comfortable and technologically advanced while retaining its core appeal: excellent value for money.
