I'm looking for an affordable EV with V2L and then the MG 4 is a strong candidate. But? A (too) small trunk with fortunately an almost flat floor with the rear seat folded down, not as in the MG5 with a trunk unworthy of a station wagon due to the unusable cargo space with the rear seat folded down and the main reason why I did not buy an MG5 in 2022. The MG4's small trunk is probably a result of its rear-wheel drive with the engine mounted on the rear axle. Then you assume that available space in the nose, which does not contain an engine, can be used usefully. But that is not the case, so that essentials are housed under the trunk floor as standard, which is nice if you need some of this equipment with a fully loaded trunk. For example, a charging cable must be placed somewhere in the already limited loading space to be accessible in all circumstances. MG should do something about that, especially since the space is available to house essentials at the front. Or how small adjustments can influence purchasing decisions. A 77KW version has been announced for 2023 with a driving range of 500km, hopefully with some minor adjustments to hardware and software to increase user-friendliness. Then the MG4 has no competition or it should be a 77KW version of the MG5 with usable cargo space.
