Equipped with a new 77kWh battery, the Extended Range marks a milestone for MG as its first electric car capable of over 300 miles on a single charge. It also allows drivers to recharge from 10-80 per cent in as little as 39 minutes**.
The Extended Range battery is only available in the top-of-the-range MG4 EV Trophy model, which means prices start at £36,495. While that’s impressive value – it’s still cheaper than a basic Cupra Born – it looks a little less impressive alongside other MG4 EV models.
If you choose a basic MG4 EV, you get a 51kWh battery and a 170hp motor. Opt for a Long Range version and that increases to 64kWh, while the motor power rises to 203hp, but the Extended Range gets a 77kWh battery. That allows the motor power to increase to 245hp without preventing the range from increasing too.
The key thing about the Extended Range is a bigger battery – 77kWh gross (74.4kWh net) compared to 64kWh gross (61.7kWh net) for the MG4 Long Range. That has also been combined with an increased motor power, from 201hp to 241hp.
There are two battery options: Standard Range Battery (SR) and Extended Range Battery (ER) and the ER adds $10,000 to the MSRP. As we will see, the battery option will affect all the EV-related specs, not only the battery capacity and range, but power output, acceleration, charging time and towing capability will change as well.
“The Extended Range is the fifth model in the award winning MG4 EV model family,” says Guy Pigounakis MG’s Commercial Director who adds “and we believe drivers have real breadth of choice with our electric hatchbacks which now include the very capable SE cars all the way through to the XPOWER, the most powerful production MG ever built.”
