The MG4 EV: Introduction
The thrilling new MG4 XPOWER is the most powerful production MG yet and one of the most hotly anticipated new cars of 2023, as the new flagship model in the award-winning MG4 EV range.

Priced from just £36,495, the new range-topping MG4 XPOWER firmly underlines MG’s Get More philosophy, as an EV performance car that offers drivers breathtaking power and dynamics at an extremely competitive price.

The new XPOWER model features a highly anticipated dual motor powertrain delivering 435PS and up to 600Nm of torque, positioning the latest MG4 model alongside the most potent high-performance hatchbacks on the market.

Capable of 0-62mph in 3.8 seconds, the XPOWER’s electrifying performance contrasts with a series of understated exterior design revisions, in contrast to the usual high-powered hatchbacks.

The MG4 XPOWER is available to order from July and promises to be one of the most exciting new electric cars of 2023, marking a new milestone in MG’s return to the performance car market.
