Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, to me it's one of the best looking EV's around, looks sporty and looks like it's moving even when parked, far better than 90% of those SUV's that look like a brick with four wheels, it represents an entry to EV's for people without a bottomless pocket !

Perhaps *the* most notable point about the MG4, is that it undercuts the basic petrol Astra, Focus and Golf.....thus providing a relatively easy way into EV ownership...

I like the way it looks. Maybe that's just because every other EV is a big ugly SUV. And I like that the MG4 comes in that bright blue and the cool orange and not just various shades of silver and grey like all the other cars it seems. I mean, it's no Lotus Elise or Porche 911, but they've gone all ugly SUV anyway. It's smart and sporty. I like it!

I've heard a lot of people complain about the driver assistance on the MG's. I've driven the MG5 and never had problems with it. quite the opposite, went a lot better than I expected. the drive had a lot of corners and traffic. the only time it didn't work "properly" was on the really sharp corners. other than that, I had it on the whole drive and braked and turned as it should. yes, sometimes its a bit "harsh" on the steering, but never to the point where I was scared or uncomfortable with it.

@jimirosa Год назад

it was my clear conviction that the assistant systems in the MG4 are some of the least good among all the cars I drive.

@FalkinerTim 8 месяцев назад

I have an MG ZS EV Mk1 (2020) and the lane assist if put on highest setting is reckoned very good and I find it excellent. However, the owners of the later model (the one without the grill) reckon the lane assist on the later model is pretty poor. As I say, these autonomous features are fantastic and you can absolutely trust your life on them, eight times out of ten. @@jimirosa

Hi Jimi, you might like to know that Morris Garages started off by Modifying Morris Cars and over the Years produced far more Saloons than Open Top Sports Cars. Great Test of the MG4,.

@jimirosa Год назад

Very understandable. Both the way the MG4 charges and the manual preheating of the battery is a huge plus

@chrispenn715 Год назад

I agree with you the driving assistance systems are too sensitive. (Found this with a relative's Tesla too) It's also annoying that many settings need to be reset every time you use the car. A big plus is the charging speed - which was a big factor in my purchase - better than a Kia eNiro for example. Pricing is also very competitive and the 7 year warranty is re-assuring.

@VYM Год назад

I can tell you how EV handles hills and mountains. Electric motor overheating, battery overheating and your mileage will disappear in a few minutes literally. And EV without a heater is just a bad joke. But I can explain you why. Because here where I live in a hot country with non-stop working air-conditioner mileage of any EV is not over 200km with fully charged battery driving straight with constant speed. Same situation will be with working heater in cold countries - not over 150-200km.

The MG 4 does have some good features like you pointed out especially the ability to heat the battery, why all manufacturers don't do this is beyond me. Also heat pumps should be standard in EV vehicles if they increase the range. Its like BMW charging you for heated seats on a monthly basis. More cold weather tests please as even here in the UK our EV's suffered with the cold weather recently. It is a pity manufacturers don't give range figures for spring / summer and autumn / winter but I guess people wouldn't buy the EV. Hoovies garage did a really interesting video on the F150 EV lightning range in cold weather.

I haven't had the opportunity to drive the car in colder conditions, but drove 4 electric cars to Nordkapp exactly one year ago. You can find the videos here on the channel. No problem in Tesla, Skoda and Hyundai 👍😊⚡️🔋

No heat pump is a show stopper for me and anybody that lives in a country where average winter temperatures are below say 10 deg c.

There is a heat pump in the car. Only the Nordic edition that uses PTC heater 😊

Hmm does it not at all come with a heatpump in denmark??? This is the luxury spec list in Norway. Aerodynamisk bakspoiler Varmepumpe (heatpump) Oppvarmede forseter (heated seats in front) Oppvarmet skinnratt (heated steering wheel) 360 graders kamera Navigasjon i sanntid MG Pilot med BSD / RCTA/ DOW Trådløs lading 6-veis justerbart førersete Batterilading med forvarming (preheating battery)

At the beginning it was stated that the WLTP figs were 435km of range at 166W/km. Later in real world driving it was 250 W/km. That's a huge difference. Also, the batteries are NCM and thus it is recommended that charge is either 80 or 90% maximum and discharge is not less than 5%, further reducing range. Thus max range of 211 Km in those conditions. Pathetic. My Mazda 2 gets 1000km on 44 li of diesel. Why on earth would I want an EV?

@jimirosa Год назад

The 250 wh/km was wit heavy motoreay driving at 130 km/h You’re Mazda wont do that great under those conditions. After owning 30+ ICE Cars (BMW, Audi and so on) i am not going back to fossil fuels 😊

I really like that colour but unfortunately it’s also the same colour as all the utility vehicles of my local council/authority. So this would be the same colour as refuse trucks, road repair trucks, council vans, cars, drain clearance machinery. It would just blend into the background. And those awful rear spoilers in the top spec., which actually decrease the range by 16km due to increased drag. Not much form and function thrown out the window.

@jimirosa Год назад

Thanks for the inputs and for watching. Arr you sure about the spoilers. F.eks Skoda and Hyundai claims that their spolers decrease drag…

@dcvariousvids8082 Год назад

@@jimirosa - From other independent testing, the reduction of potential range is correct. The different between the top specs. and others is mainly cosmetic. The main outer difference being the rear spoilers, so I presumed increased drag. I’m fully apologetic for being incorrect for this assumption of increased drag, if I am incorrect.

@jimirosa Год назад

With an extremely large driving requirement, some EVs and with a lack of charging infrastructure may well become a challenge. In Denmark, however, the conversion to electric propulsion is fast because we have lots of DC chargers and the country is so small that you rarely drive more than 400-500 km on a daily basis.
