In many ways, the MG4 EV is the perfect small family car. It’s practical enough to transport four adults and their luggage in comfort and, if you opt for the top-spec Extended Range model, you’ll be able to travel more than 300 miles on a single charge, which might be enough to convince EV fence-sitters to make the switch. That’s why we’ve made it our 2024 Car of the Year.
But the MG4’s biggest selling point is its value for money. The cheapest version costs around £10,000 less than its closest rivals, but it manages to be better than all of them to drive. It satisfies the demands of keen drivers thanks to its well-weighted steering, excellent brakes and lively performance. You really do get the best of both worlds here. Build quality is also excellent considering the price.
So, just like the best electric former Car of the Year winners, the MG4 excels at being a family car. It also has lots to offer technophiles, too, as it’s packed with clever equipment. It pairs up with your phone and, with the right apps installed, it can take you straight to your nearest car charger when you need to fill it up with volts.
In short, this is the state of the electric family car art – one that, for most households, could take the place of an existing combustion-engined car without making any compromises. It has an impressive battery range, a truly engaging driving experience (which is a rarity in the EV space) and is a supremely comfortable place to spend time. In short, the MG4 EV is an outstanding Parkers Car of The Year – and we think you’ll agree, too.
