Electric Hatchback of the Year
MG 4 EV
To say that the MG 4 EV breaks new ground is no hyperbole, and we're not just talking about its looks; it's MG's first model with a dedicated electric platform. With its battery cells placed down low, and weight spread evenly across the front and rear, the car is surprisingly sweet to drive, especially since all 201bhp goes to the rear axle. This might be the one that wins new audiences over - not just because of its value, but for how driver-centric it feels.

I was at MG Leng Kee yesterday for the low profile father day promotion. My first choice was MG ZS SUV but when I look at the MG4 premium trophy hatchback , I changed my mind after test drive.The MG 4 EV may not move any technological boundaries, but other manufacturers should undoubtedly see this car as a serious threat, because it does so many things so well, and for such a keen price that it is hard to argue you should buy any other electric hatchback.Which in some ways sums up the MG4. It's a terrific addition to the cat A entry-level of the electric car market, albeit with a skinny equipment list in its
Verdict
It may be the brand's third offering in Singapore, but the MG 4 is sharply removed from the MG 5 and MG ZS that preceded it.

Of course, it starts with the design. With a distinctive and sporty design, it is precisely the sort of car that will get heads turning and people talking. This hatchback is certainly one of the more visually attractive models in the market today. It looks progressive and modern, which is entirely fitting with the personality of the car.

On the inside, the MG 4 continues to impress with high levels of sensibility and practicality. Legroom and kneeroom is sufficient for rear passengers, and the soft headrests speak to the overall comfort of the car.

Most significantly, the MG 4 feels high quality in the way it drives. Based on the new Modular Scalable Platform architecture, the low placement of the battery pack allows for a low centre of gravity and 50:50 weight distribution.

Combined with well-damped suspension and good body control, the MG 4 rewards the keen driver - it handles well through corners (the well-weight steering helps), and creeps pleasingly into hot hatch territory.

But it's not just about spirited driving, either. The MG 4 is quiet on the move, even at highway speeds, and the sizeable battery and healthy energy consumption means that you can easily cover over 400km on a single charge.

When it comes to entry-level electric hatchbacks, two things seem to matter more than most: Price, and range. On these fronts, the MG 4 delivers - it's priced very competitively and offers up a more than healthy range. But beyond just that, the MG 4 also delivers a pleasingly high-quality driving experience, which helps sets it apart from the competition and make it our electric hatchback of the year.
