mg4 xpower
The MG4 EV is a battery electric small family car (C-segment) produced by the Chinese automotive manufacturer SAIC Motor under the British MG marque. First released in June 2022 as the MG Mulan in China (later renamed to MG4 EV in August 2023), it is the first vehicle to be based on SAIC's battery-electric Modular Scalable Platform (marketed as the Nebula platform in China). It was introduced in Europe in July 2022.
So, I've had the xpower for 2 years now and it HAS a bunch of features that I just don't use (or actively avoid using).
I'm wondering if I'm just stuck in my ways/thinking though so I'm open to hearing if others use them and like them etc.
While this could be a general MG4 thread I wasn't sure...
Was updating ye olde charging record spreadsheet today and noticed that there had been some pretty good fast charger sessions.
My best charging session was adding 7.6 miles of range for each minute the car was on charge so 10 minutes of charge added 76 miles
That was 15% to 53% on a Tesla rapid...
So today I’ve had my long range for a month, being honest coming from an x power I wanted to go with the dual motor version cause I loved the power of 2 motors but having read pretty much every review of the S6 a lot of the reviewers recommended the Trophy Long range. Now this is not a critism...
Posting this purely for the benefit of future buyers browsing the web for reviews. My XPower was finally collected by the dealership today after the car was rejected for numerous faults, so feels right to summarise my time with the car.
Firstly, the faults in question don’t impact the points...
Well after some discussion we have now booked our Euro Trip Brescia-Rome-Brescia - to follow the route of the 1927 Mille Miglia - avoiding motorways, tolls and dual carriageways as much as possible.
The winners of the first MM in 1927 took about 21 hours and we planned for 21 days.
Most legs...
For info having spent a couple of hours researching tyres and needing four new tyres for mine I have decided to take the plunge with a set of Michelin Pilot Sport 5.
Costo by far the cheapest option at 680 fitted.
I'll keep you all updated with how I get on.
Any comments welcomed.
Cheers
Hello all.

No, not mine 😁, but the MG4 X-Power has now been removed from the MG Website, so there can't be many left for sale now, and we'll just have to wait and see if it returns as a 'facelift' model, I personally don't think it will.

MG4 EV Urban starts from £23,495 (Comfort Standard Range), £25,495 (Comfort Long Range), £27,995 (Premium Long Range)

I have a problem with my FM radio reception constantly fading in and out. At first I thought it might have been interference from my rear dashcam but after disconnecting the power to the camera it hasn't improved. Is this a shared problem and/or does anyone have a 'fix'?
Today I was toggling between the various driving modes, in the mean time on screen checking which wheels were powered. I ended in Sport mode again. When I had to slow down for the next crossing the car was regenerative braking, but not enough to halt in time. It also felt like the regenerative...
Yesterday I got the dreaded “Vehicle control system fault take it to your MG dealership” and my car will no longer charge, I contacted MG Leicester and was told by the assistant service manager that the earliest they could get me booked in was May!!!, It’s January for God sake, he then said it...

Well it’s back! After first encountering this vehicle control system fault on my 2023 XPower back in June 24 when the dealer did some updates and unplugged and reconnected some modules it’s now back and more annoying than ever.
Power limited to 9% with accelerator pressed to the floor, take...
I topped my car up last night for a long journey today. At 95% last night it was predicting a range of 185 miles. This morning at 100% the predicted range is 189 miles. It is cold (5°C) this morning but this range seems excessively depressed. My XPower is one year old and I don’t remember it...
The headlghts are great other than there's a black hole between the dip and high beam, is there no way of bringing down the high beam withoutout lowing both? I always have the setting on 2 to avoid constant flashing from oncommers, but then on high I'm still just spotting Owls! - most annoying.
