MG4 LEASE

[Buster72]

I am trying to arrange a lease for an MG4 and prior to that, to arrange a test drive.
Is there anything special you think I should be asking about or trying out when I drive one.
By the way. This is going to be my very first EV of any kind. So any advice from those of you who already own one would be greatly appreciated.

When you go for your test drive, I’d recommend spending time becoming familiar with the infotainment screen, so that you can try out the different driving modes and regenerative breaking settings and see which one you feel most comfortable with. You’ll get more range in eco, but you may prefer normal with high or adaptive regen. The steering wheel also has some control buttons and little thumb joysticks. Also, play about with the heating and air conditioning to see how to use it.

On my own test drive I took the car on various roads and practiced parking, reversing, a three point turn and other maneuvers. You’ll only need to use your right foot with the accelerator and brake pedals. It was strange for me coming from a manual car for my left foot not having anything to do.

Let us know how you get on and enjoy!
Here’s a link to the manual, but one is included on the infotainment screen.

I agree with the above. Sit in the car and find the different modes before you set off or ask the salesman to show you hopefully he has driven it.

Thank you for this.

Of those who already have an MG4, can I ask whether you have bought (purchased or PCP) it or are leasing it.

I've got mine on PCP part-ex'd an old 12 plate Mondeo 2l diesel we'd had for years
