Probably won’t get an MG4 again

Same with stellantis EVs - they aren't fashionable so there are massive discounts. The list price is high as well because this gets referenced for accountancy and tax purposes.

I think Stellantis also had some issues with some of their battery packs on slightly older models, they were basically dumping them for cheap at some point to clear the “old” stock in France. According to family there anyway.

I looked at Peugeot for EVs when I was in the market for a new car, but besides not offering a lot of choice here, the price tag, and to be honest the lack lustre specs, I couldn’t in good conscience stick with the brand. Even now the specs on an e-308 are some much worse than what you get in the MG4, I’m not surprised car makers are afraid of Chinese competition. And with worse specs I’m thinking of range, acceleration (or lack thereof) and still being a FWD set up.

Whatever the reason, Vauxhall usually have models available significantly below the RRP. The other way to look at it is that the RRP must be inflated for accounting/finance/tax reasons.

We were considering an e-208 initially but after visiting the MG garage opposite there was no way we'd pay more for an older and smaller car.

The price difference with MG is significant.

Stallantis have various brands but it can be hard to differentiate them.

Is it Vauxhall/Opel (practical), Puegeot (advanced), Citroen (comfortable), Fiat (quirky), Alfa (Sporty), Jeep (rugged). But the cars have the same bits underneath. I've probably missed some brands there!
