MG4 Urban in the test: What the Chinese Golf rival can do at a bargain price - and what it can't

The MG4 Urban, a compact car from Chinese manufacturer SAIC's MG brand, has sparked skepticism due to its low starting price of around €25,000 and an additional €6,000 discount. With the maximum government purchase premium, the price drops to €13,000. The car offers more space than its competitors, including the VW Golf, with a length of 4.40 meters and a spacious interior.

The MG4 Urban is designed for mass appeal, with a simple and aerodynamic design, and features a 54 kWh battery with a range of 405 kilometers. The car is currently imported from China, but local production in Spain is planned for 2028.
