MG4 X-Power waiting area

[Lillemy]

Australia gets an version with 77kw battery and larger rear motor, but nowhere near the bhp and acceleration of the awd version.

To me some of the leaked information makes no sense.

The extended range version is due here also

Latest info I’ve had confirms pricing. Availability of test drive and showroom vehicles for when Goodwood happens with the splash they’re wanting to make there.
New green paint is £800
18” wheels as suspected, Performance tyres, Red stitching and metal pedals were mentioned.

Is it weird that I’d be tempted to swap back to aero wheels for a stealthier look?
That’d mean getting nicer tyres for those wheels though I guess

I've seldom seen Tesla's (for example) doing more than the limit.. and some of them are rockets as we know. Why would it be different with the 4wd MG4?

Now white vans on the other hand, they must be the fastest thing on the road, because no matter what speed you're going, there always seems to be one right up your backend trying to get ahead of you.

But yeah, why buy a car with a top speed of 101 if you're going to be frustrated, every day as you drive on your own 'private test track' - which no-one believes btw. I'm not sure we'll ever truly know..

Track driving! In my experience the 100+ bits are boring (unless your cars rubbish and then they are frightening) and coming down from 160 just lunches your brakes so unless your racing there is little point for me. 101 limit just stops me from being inadvertently stupid on the UK roads, so a bonus! I really don't have a problem with it.

Confirmed AWD 66KW, £36495 for white or blue to £37295 for matt green.

Damn, it does look nice in that blue. Just placed my order for Orange though ? now the waiting game begins.

Where was that careon? Is it a demonstrator? My guy is quoting mid July for a test.

The dealer in Redditch sent me the pictures, I've had my order with the dealer since April. It was just a one off, the sales director borrowed it from Longbridge. My MG4 is currently blue, so not sure I could have the same! Deliveries starting mid-end July dependant on colour.

Is anyone really going to keep those caliper covers on when they know it’s just covers…?

Told you so ?.
There a few in the country already, crap - it’s has Bridgestones fitted !.
I hope any lucky owner is not hoping to lay down all that power very quickly worst tyres I have ever driven on TBH.
Hard compound / poor traction and bad road noise as they wear down.
Tyres that suffer from bad road noise transmission, is the last thing you need on a EV.
I would flip them out straight away !.

They would look tidy finished in the same body colour I think ?.

Ooh interesting, I bet I’ve chosen poorly on which ones will be delivered first heh.
I had a deposit in for “call me first” when the order book opens but no official order till today as it wasn’t on their system to order. Still, now we wait ?

 

[RobQuads]

Those pictures show a black roof - does that mean they are keeping them after all but only on the AWD or is that due to that being a development version and as with all new cars this will be removed?

I'm quietly waiting for the ZS facelift with a 4 front end ;-)

I like the flash (off chrome) in the lower trim where as ours is still same black plastic

Do wonder what improvement that 'small' rear wiper will do on a Awd 'hot hatch' - I thought the vortex was 'ok' to not warrant the wiper - Clearly they thought it needed it ...

 

[siteguru]

I suspect client feedback was that they wanted a wiper - not that they needed a wiper. (We don't need one - I've never suffered blocked rear view in my MG4).

I came to exactly the same conclusion. The size of the wiper is limited by the depth of the window. It will serve very little purpose. The designers knew this and the bean counters were happy to save on the expense of fitting one. But the customer feedback was that a wiper is wanted, so a wiper gets added.

I agree - Its a SHAME that they haven't listened to the other Client feedback - Before they roll out a newer version of an already buggy s/w car .....
I mean why cant we have a profile that saves 'our' informed choices - rather than what they think we 'SHOULD' have.. I also want a Shark fin aerial.. But Nope - Still have the four lines in the heated rear window as the aerial
Do we have some 'manual buttons' for features - Nope its ALL STILL within that main screen that doesnt 'always' choose to accept that you are pressing on the word/tab/icon ... All whilst driving ! NOT best practice

 

[Chikyu]

My AWD version has the rear wiper, but it also gets the center head restraints. Perfectly blocks most of the wiper coverage area

[ianwlk]
