“The MG4 is the first MG to be based on our EV-only MSP (Modular Scalable Platform).
This introduction of our EV-only platform signals our ongoing commitment to ‘Take Charge’
and intention to move toward an EV future.”
On the new ZS EV variant: “We listened to our customer’s feedback and have fast tracked
the arrival of our long range ZS EV with a larger 72kw battery pack and 440km of range to
Australia. This provides more peace of mind in terms of minimising range anxiety and
matches our pursuit of driving.
“Our customers can take great pride and comfort knowing that their MG4 features the
latest technology, world class design and quality materials resulting in a 5-star Euro NCAP
rating.”
