MG4 EV Urban Put to the Test in Colombia: Price, Specs, and Driving Verdict on MG's Electric Hatch

Colombian outlet El Espectador spent time with the MG4 EV Urban and came away most impressed by how effortless the car feels on the move. Regeneration strength can be dialed from barely noticeable to true one-pedal driving, while steering weight and throttle response are also user-adjustable — all handled through an infotainment interface the writer finds more intuitive than most rivals at this price point.

Measuring 4,395 mm long, the hatch is tailored to congested cities like Bogotá yet still seats five thanks to a flat second-row floor, and its 382-liter cargo bay expands to 1,266 liters. The test also praises the cabin's sound insulation, a suspension that absorbs broken pavement well, and a driving position with excellent outward visibility.

Underneath sits a 42.8 kWh battery powering the front axle, with a claimed 325 km of range, 161 hp, 250 Nm of torque, and a 160 km/h speed limiter. Cabin tech includes a 7-inch digital cluster, a 12.8-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, eco-leather upholstery, a wireless phone charger, and three USB-C ports. Six airbags and the usual stability systems are on board, though advanced driver-assistance features are conspicuously absent.

The bottom line: a balanced, unpretentious urban EV that the reviewer ranks among the most appealing offerings in its class.
