If you've up to £25,000 to spend on a compact EV, we reckon the MG 4 EV Urban should be high on your list of cars to try. There are certainly more charismatic and more nicely finished alternatives you could choose for this kind of money. But none of them have the same kind of interior and boot space that MG is offering here. It's a C-segment Golf-sized hatch at B-segment sub-Corsa-level pricing - and that's a big draw.
We've got a few concerns MG could address when it comes to the mid-term update; like scratchy interior plastics and the feeble DC charging speed of the smaller-battery version. But overall, the Urban offers a strong package and is the MG 4 to have if you don't need the longer operating range of the ordinary version.
