A good budget EV, now with a decent range as well. Well done MG.

Hi, thank you for this MG test and look forward to your long-term test of the MG4. A French subscriber 👍

Yes, MG4 will be interesting, box test as well as range test and comfort. In Europe mostly driving SUVs, but they are not as efficient like hatchbacks and station wagons.

I "upgraded" my Dacia Spring too with JBL Speakers and with an JBL flat subwoofer under the seat and an specialist made also sound deadening. There is a huge difference!!! It made the car at 110km/h 7 DB less and in the city with 50km/h 11 DB less! Everything with the sound system, sound d. materials and work was less than 1000 euros but it worth every euro cents! Here in Hungary is usual to sound deadening the EVs, specialy the Teslas and Hyundai Kona and the Kia e Niro. When i drove the MG ZS ev, it was "loud", the windows are too thin, and the sound deadening materials are missing, just in material is it a few hundred euros, but it makes it much more luxurious, much comfortable, you feel the doors are heavier, and everything have this deep, heavy "sound" what makes it feel like a "premium" car.

Is the sound deadening/damping a kit or what do they do? I suspect that in Norway (or Denmark where I live) it will not be a cheap upgrade due to labor costs, but sounds interesting

I hope your being sarcastic, but Carscanner does not missreport. The Battery is never fully charged on many cars. You have the option in Carscanner(for MEB) "State of Charge BMS" and "state of Charge Display"

here you have 2 different batter SoC on car scanner, neither of which match the display state, one was expected to match display as you said: "state of Charge Display" hence "misreport"

Great video. Have the same car. 😊The car scanner you use in the video to see the temeprature of the battery, is that an app connected to OBD plug or the USB in the car?

Strange, they gave you a facelift ZS with the old pre-facelift wheels and smaller tires. The facelift has 215/55-15 instead of 215/50-17 as your test vehicle has. Might be the reason for the incorrect speedo and milage reporting??

Great review on the MG bjorn, would love to see you do some range tests on Genesis EGV70 and GV60 if possible! Thanks!

It is also good to use the breaks a bit so they don't rust

@bjorn What car OBD2 scanner do you use??

funny，my model 3 slow down on mergeing curves for some reason. When I dont have cruise engaged i just blast through the curve at speed limit

I feel you could fit larger tires into this car, it would make the speedo and trip meter overreporting less of a problem

When the nio et7 coming mate

Does the lack of regen in cruise control mode affect range much, compared to say the e-niro? I use the CC to avoid speeding fines.

i use the CC+lane keep+ everything on my Kona just cuz im lazy and i love not having to do much except hold the steering wheel. Not sure how it pans out on actual range and would be interesting to know.

I have the new ZS EV, but traded it for the mg4 which I should get soon. The mg4 uses regen with ACC

Do you know if the new Niro EV is coldgating as much as the old e-Niro? If it still does this looks lot better. old e-niro offers 22kW and only about 30kW after half an hour

Too expensive at the moment new in the UK, but this will be a great buy when they are coming up on the used market next couple of years.

Hi Bjorn, did you have ‘loudness’ selected in the sound options, it does really enhance the bass and gives it a slightly better ceiling

@bjornnyland

No

@decimal1815

loudness setting doesn't tend to extend the range of the loudspeakers, so won't add any 'real' low frequency but just give the frequencies around the low cut-off point a boost. If you add a sub, you'll get more frequencies below 80Hz

Overreporting distance: maybe be this car has a different tyre size..My 2022 ZSEV SR is overreporting speed due to GPS by only 1 Km/h (standard tyresize 215/55-17). Good test and it matches the everyday driving experience with my car, however the SR LFP battery coldgates more than this LR NCM version.

How do you like the MG4 so far? Wich version do you have? It is a bit small for me and the missus but i really really like both the looks and the interior in that car in top trim version and GREAT price.

So you can't use an electric car freeeely anytime without range problem & no charging point ques like a regular ice car.

Hi Björn. Would you know how much the additional weight of batteries affected the performance? Mainly acceleration. I assume top speed should be the same due to the drivetrain final ration but I could be wrong. Just wonder if they just add the batteries or do the change other settings to suit new battery. In Kona or Niro bigger battery comes with a stronger motor to deal with the additional weight and create a Premium car feeling (car is much more expensive in the 64kWh trim so it make sense to add stronger electric motor to match the price). Thanks for all. Peter

260Wh/km @ 120km/h it's a 2.1666 consumption/speed ratio. 190Wh/km @ 90 km/h it's a 2.1111 consumption/speed ratio. What gives? Energy consumption at 120km/h is rising almost insignificantly (2.6%) with speed when compared to 90km/h. Are those numbers right? Help me out understanding this, please. The numbers on the 44.5kWh model make a lot more sense: Same 2.16666 consumption/speed ratio (195/90) at 90 km/h but 2.45833 consumption/speed ratio (295/120) at 120km/h which is a 13.5% penalty in efficiency.

I would personally buy neither and wait. Electric vehicles within 2 - 4 years should be much more refined, competitive, cheaper and have a lot more supply across the whole market (used and new). For example the BMW i4 rwd 80kwh is fantastic and it still is on an ICE platform. While the new Ioniq 6 looks to be phenomenal. Tesla has it's advantages like power train, batteries and infotainment hardware/software, but funnily enough suffers such poor build quality on basic things that legacy automakers have long figured out.
