Overview
The MG 4 is the cheapest route into a genuine rear-wheel-drive electric car in Pakistan, and it lands as a single Urban trim at PKR 6,999,000 ex-factory. That buys a 43 kWh battery, a 148 HP rear motor and a claimed 316 km of range in a hatchback 4395 mm long on a 2750 mm wheelbase — closer to a compact sedan's footprint than a city runabout's. Booking is roughly 20%, the pay order goes to MG Motors Pakistan, and delivery is listed at 2–4 months.
Exterior
A closed-off nose, sharp LED headlamps and a full-width rear light bar make the 4 the most overtly sporty thing MG sells here. It stands just 1549 mm tall on 130 mm of clearance, the biggest compromise of owning one locally, since unmarked speed breakers and basement ramps need deliberate care. 17-inch alloys on 205/50 R17 rubber fill the arches, and there is a rear spoiler but no roof rails. Colours: Black Pearl, White, Oasis Green, Brighton Blue and Medal Silver.
Interior
Five seats, fabric upholstery and a hip point lower than any crossover at this price — the 4 wants you to feel the road rather than survey it. The long wheelbase pays dividends in rear legroom, though the sloping roofline means tall adults run out of headroom first. The 382-litre boot is honest rather than generous, folding rear seats stretch it, and there is no spare wheel. Climate control, wireless charging, keyless entry and push-button start are standard; powered or ventilated seats are not offered.
Infotainment
A 10.25-inch touchscreen anchors the dashboard alongside a digital cluster, with navigation, Bluetooth, voice command and both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The connected EV menus matter more than they sound: charge status, drive modes and camera feeds live here, and it is where you learn what an hour of air conditioning costs in kilometres. Audio is a plain front-and-rear speaker set, and there is no head-up display.
Electric powertrain
One motor drives the rear wheels: 148 HP through a single-speed automatic, top speed listed at 160 km/h. MG publishes no torque figure locally, but a rear-drive EV of this weight delivers its shove exactly where Pakistani traffic demands it, with no gearbox hunting for a ratio. At 1635 kg it is heavier than a petrol hatch yet light by EV standards, and MacPherson struts with a multi-link rear are proper handling hardware rather than a cost-cut beam. Solid discs stop it, and the 5.3 m turning circle suits narrow lanes.
Safety
Six airbags across a five-belt cabin is generous at this price, and the electronic net covers stability and traction control, hill-start assist, an immobiliser and tyre-pressure monitoring. Front and rear parking sensors plus a reversing camera cover tight spaces, though there is no 360-degree camera. The omission worth knowing: no ADAS pack is listed on the Urban sheet, so if adaptive cruise or autonomous braking matters, confirm it against the dealer's spec.
Mileage
Range replaces km/l here, and the claim is 316 km from 43 kWh. Expect meaningfully less in practice — motorway speeds and an air conditioner fighting a Lahore summer are the two big drains — so treat the 4 as a strong daily commuter with occasional intercity ability. A full AC home charge is quoted at about 7.5 hours, making overnight top-ups the routine, while DC fast charging depends on the charger you find; the public network is still thin outside major cities.
Variants
- Urban — PKR 6,999,000. The only MG 4 grade listed for Pakistan, and it carries everything: the 43 kWh pack, 148 HP rear motor, 17-inch alloys, 10.25-inch screen and six airbags. There is no bigger-battery or dual-motor version locally, so the decision is the car, not the trim walk.
Alternatives
The hatchback body is the 4's real point of difference, since almost everything at this money is a crossover. Smaller battery EV: BYD Atto 2. Electric SUV alternative: Omoda E5. Cheaper MG city EV: MG Binguo. Range-extender crossover: Deepal S05.
