The new MG4 EV is an all-electric hatchback designed to offer customers affordable, zero-emissions motoring without compromise.
With an extremely competitive $44,990 (AUD) plus on-road costs* starting price, MG's first fully-electric hatchback optimises space, technology, affordability and driving quality. The MG4 EV is the first to use the innovative new Modular Scalable Platform (MSP) that will underpin a new generation of MGs, featuring rear-wheel drive, 50:50 weight distribution and thin battery technology.
Three specifications are now offered as part of the register your interest - the MG4 64kWh Excite, the MG4 64kWh Essence and the MG4 77kWh Essence (Long Range).
With battery capacities from 64kWh to 77kWh, the current MG4 EV range is capable of up to 530km on the WLTP cycle for 77kWh Essence Long Range, with 64kWh Excite capable of 450km (WLTP) and 64kWh Essence at 435km (WLTP) respectively.
This remarkably affordable range of battery options gives customers the opportunity to find their most suitable driving specification and price point.
The 64kWh battery is also capable of recharging at up to 138kW, meaning a charge time of only 28 minutes from 10% - 80% using a 150kW DC rapid charger.
The MG4 EV is expected to bring zero-emissions motoring within reach for far more Australian customers, representing an affordable, credible alternative to conventional petrol, diesel and hybrid vehicles.
The MG4 EV also carries MG's trademark 7-year unlimited kilometre warranty as standard, which remains one of the longest fully-transferable warranties in the country.

About MG
MG is the fastest growing car brand in Australia, with a market-leading range of electric vehicles that are encouraging more drivers than ever to switch to zeroemission motoring.
Designed in Marylebone, London, and manufactured in state-of-the-art factories in several countries, today's MGs are practical, spacious and packed with technology. From its innovative new Modular Scalable Platform (MSP) to the intelligent iSmart vehicle data app, MG continues to demonstrate a forwardthinking and progressive approach to the needs of today's discerning motorists.
Advantages of switching to an MG electric vehicle: Electric vehicles offer a high degree of economic and environmental efficiency. Like many countries around the world, Australia also currently offers state-based incentives for electric vehicles.
This year, purchase of an MG4 can be subsidised by state-based incentives for private purchasers. And there are also other monetary benefits for businesses: (fringe benefits tax), ownership costs for operation with electric
vehicles and a reduced maintenance requirement.
With a national network of over 85 dealerships, MG is accessible to customers everywhere with professional sales and aftersales provisioned across Australia.
All new MGs are built with world-class components and are backed by a comprehensive manufacturer's 7-year warranty.
