    Honest review of the MG4 XPower

    The MG4 is not an efficient car though, Model 3 as example would slaughter it. If you hypermile it then yes it is possible.

    Anyone wash their car today? ?

    Funny that, on Monday I just did my wheels and tyres also, and then dressed the tyres after, car is slightly dirty but not bad and agree when standing back the whole thing looks better.

    MG4 X Power Vibe/Hum 65 to 75mph

    Thanks, not too bothered by mine, it is minor and kind of in the nit picking catagory of annoyance. Love the car and would 100% buy another MG in future. Also considering Pilot Sport 5's at some point.

    Finally got my wheel balances checked today, only 1 wheel was out and that was only needing a 15gram weight to correct, so deffo no chance that will change mine. But they also dropped my pressures back to 36psi where recommended so i will try it again there, then re inflate to 40psi and try...

    Awesome car i am sure but if i could justify spending that much on one i still would not as i do not like the look of it personally, where as i think the x power is spot on.

    WHich is going to be my best buy (MG4)

    Thats odd, i get that out of my X Power at motorway speeds, maybe it is more efficient ( in eco😉) than i thought . 👍

    Honest review of the MG4 XPower

    Agreed and fully understand your views, no doubt a cheap Chinese EV but it ticks all the boxes for me and am considering buying a second new style MG4 also along with buying my X power end lease. If they did not drop Orange would nabbed new X Power but instead mines a keeper now and eyes on...

    Autocar review - MG4 EV (2026)

    The majority of people will not. Crazy discounts already and cars are barely here. Dealers already offering the extended range for 24k and X Power for 25k. Not sure about the extended range model but regarding the X Power, 25k was around the best possible price you could get a current one for...

    I am the same, went electric as i love the powertrain and power delivery mainly, cost to run is a bonus being less and the environmental side of it is my lesser concern.

    New MG4 EV Urban - Now on MG website.

    I know two totally different cars but my Leaf has a heat pump and i see no major difference in range loss on the X Power compared to the Leaf personally, i do not see it as a major issue also my Tesla had one and do not see the MG being overly worse against that from memory.

    New MG4 coming soon: what are your questions?

    Charge/ discharge capability LFP suffers when its cold compared to NMC. My model 3 was LFP it was ok but DC charging when battery was cold would see me getting 28kW at average slowly ramping as pack warmed up best speed was 60kW.

    £34,000 RRP for the new and improved XPower?

    If they can stand these discounts may as well just go super agressive on pricing in the first place.

    MG4 X Power Vibe/Hum 65 to 75mph

    It is certainly another angle to look at even if taken with pinch of salt which i will, finally asked about 40psi increase Increasing tyre pressures can reduce vibration on the MG4 XPower — but only in very specific circumstances. The fact you noticed something but not a clear improvement...
  35. C

    MG4 X Power Vibe/Hum 65 to 75mph

    Then i asked all reasons for a vibe? Yes — the MG4 XPower can show several different types of vibration, and they don’t all come from the same root cause. That’s why owners report different symptoms, and why some cars feel perfect while others have quirks. Let me map out the full landscape...

    Thanks it is just a check for now, i was reading on another forum that some leasing companies are charging over the odds to sell cars to you directly as there is a growing trend to re lease them again due to poor residuals. Want to weigh this against other examples or maybe a new one if deals...

    Cars you’ve smoked ?

    The 5N can be very touchy about battery condition ( as can Mg) for max power and it again is not that much faster off the line in the real world on public roads keeping it legal, on a track yes 5N would bury an X Power. TBH we must all want our heads examining trying to use the available power...
