The MG4 is MG's high-value small hatchback and one of Australia's best-selling EVs. Built on SAIC's MSP platform designed from the ground up for electric, it has a flat floor, a longer wheelbase than its exterior suggests, and a 5-star ANCAP rating (2023). OTA updates, a heat pump, and 135kW DC charging come standard — specs that competitors at this price typically don't offer.
Key differentiator
Purpose-built EV platform, 5-star ANCAP, heat pump, and 135kW DC charging under $40K — hard to match on spec-per-dollar.
Who is this for?
Buyers wanting maximum EV specification for minimum outlay — the MG4 is the benchmark for affordable EV value in Australia.
The Excite 64 is the sweet spot — 64kWh LFP battery, 435km WLTP range, and 135kW DC charging at $38,990. MG also offers a smaller 51kWh Excite variant and a dual-motor XPOWER; the Excite 64 balances range, charge speed, and price better than either. Only buy the XPOWER if you specifically want AWD performance.
