2023 MG4 Essence 64 review

"We can see why it scooped the awards pool overseas. It’s far and away MG’s best vehicle yet."

EV on a budget – MG4 Electric first drive

"The MG4 is a commendable attempt by MG, delivering a product that feels more premium than its price would suggest. In terms of space, the ZS EV might be a better fit for some, although the MG4 outperforms it in terms of tech, drive, and range."
