What've you got?

[Brettus]

Wondering what the split is over the range is now the car has been out a while.
I haven't seen a poll like this and if there was one it's likely outdated with the new additions to the MG4 family.
I would try and find the various names for the different regions but I'd likely muck it up so if you'd like, please translate whatever you have to the UK naming scheme.

The model comparisons can be found in this thread:

MG EV Models and trim variations around the world.

Here are the names of the trims of MG EVs used here on MGEVs.com. They are as close to the names given by MG as possible, but with some tweaks to shorten them for use in the forum. SE = Standard Edition SR = Standard Range LR = Long Range ER = Extended Range Battery size is usable as quoted on...

What is the purpose of this poll?
Should/can this be updated with new options in the future?
Do you want to distinguish phase 1 and phase 2?
Phase 3/facelift?

Voted and suprised by how high the Xpower % is at the moment

Me too. Also surprised no one has the ER

I suspect anyone for whom range anxiety might be a thing isn't really in the market for an EV in the first place...

Probably because its the same price as the XPower. Who can resist that much extra performance

It's a bit of fun, I think. These are the five basic versions of the car. It's interesting.

I suspect people with a car like that are more likely to join car forums.

I recall seeing a thread from someone here who does have an ER (might be one of our Oz/NZ friends), but that's the only one.

Something else I've noticed is the number of Trophys compared to everything else. It seems people are buying the Trophy because of the extras and not for the range or value for money otherwise the LR would be doing better.

Interesting observation.

Here in NZ you can buy two battery versions of the base trim, the 51 kW LFP and 64 kW NMC (Excite 51 and Excite 64) versions with cloth seats, 17” wheels, no spoiler, reverse camera only. The trim step up adds leather, 18” wheels, spoiler, 360 deg cameras with NMC batteries of 64 and 77 kW (Essence 64 and LR 77).

The most popular choices* so far appear to be the lowest cost base spec 51 kW and the up spec Essence 64, even though you could get the slightly better range with the Excite 64 kW. Range does not seem to be a high priority.

*Unscientific observations and gossip.

Yes the poll needs to add a "Trophy SR" option to capture what is available elsewhere - lots of other markets have this option.

I'm not sure "lots" is an apt term - "some" would seem more accurate. (e.g. Thailand and Indonesia have the 51kWh Trophy, but I'm not sure where else).

 

[tsedge]

OMG, the Pedantometer has gone off!

 

[Rolfe]

Meh. If they produced an SE-spec X-Power with an LFP battery I'd be hideously tempted.

 

[Brettus]

Bump, can we get over 100? Pretty decent sample size though. I think us XPower owners are disproportionately represented with the novelty not yet worn off.

More expensive than the XPOWER on lease, so could be why.

There was some banging lease deals on XPs before winter hit.
