Bjorn - the mg4 customizable steering wheel controls - display the silver joystick functions - so you can use them to change the heating without touching the touch screen. Also voice commands are able to make changes.

Yes it was not that unclear so...maybe Björn has to read the instructions sometimes also 😁

[@tomdavison1152]

The boot floor has folding extensions underneath. Fold them out and the floor sits on the higher level giving a flat floor to the seats.

[@pedrocarrilho6188]

How is that? I don't understand.

[@tomdavison1152]

@Pedro Carrilho When you remove the floor, there is a hinged strip on each side which folds out to make the floor wider. (Trophy only). It then sits on the upper level of the supprts.

[@JW-mx3qg]

Lol those door slamming jive! 😂

[@Andydwyer99]

Turn the boot floor over, there should be two flaps to fold out for the upper level.

[@TomLaceyJohnson]

Don’t need to turn it over otherwise you would loose the strap to lift it. Just fold out the flaps.

[@Andydwyer99]

I meant turn it over to see the flaps !, Bjørn obviously doesn’t know they exist .

[@dutchypiang]

They only exist in the top spec with the bigger battery in Europe, so may not be in this LFP one

[@r33gts]

@@dutchypiang they do, you can see them when he lifted it up👍

[@dutchypiang]

@@r33gts cheers for pointing that out. Completely missed it.

[@kabirjones8563]

Thanks for the MG 4 test. There is a dual motor MG4 possibly coming this year, 0-60 4seconds and a 2 seater sports car coming as well.

[@foreverwhisper]

Dual motor mg4 already began delivery in china

[@GunitEngage]

The Spoilers of the non-standard Version actually decrease efficiency...Just the fast and Furious Looks. The Star Button you can Set whatever you want. Climate Shortcut is to be steered with the steering wheel Buttons 😉 There is a 4wd coming with good Power Output. Looking forward to this. May be even with a 70+kWh Battery.

[@PaulvanDruten]

The extra lid was there, you missed it. You can fold out the extra flaps to make the floorbeard wider to slide in...

[@AndyM...]

9:04-9:28 Had me laughing, great little compilation !!!!

[@denjetkin6528]

Very funny door shutting music video clip, you just put a smile on my face i am also impressed with with your review i wonder how much it will cost when it comes to Australia?

[@davidg.9165]

same here with the door shutting music 😂

[@PaulvanDruten]

At 17m 43s you ate clicking the screen but you are supposed to use the 5 buttons on the steering wheel!

[@bjornnyland]

It didn't work either.

[@PaulvanDruten]

@@bjornnyland You must be doing something wrong, look: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nouXc3aigMecnqM

[@stephanewolfer4073]

You have a magnet system under the plate in the trunk so you can have a completly flat floor…. Sorry for my bad english

[@bill_heywood]

You can see the fold out flaps when Bjorn lifts up the moveable boot floor… So yet, there is a two position floor on the Trophy/Luxury model Also, Thailand is sensible and is right hand drive, you know it’s right because the answer is in the name - right 😉 Really good to see the practical car seat test and measuring the width of the back seat, it would be interesting to see this in the Renault Megane eTech, that car is narrower than a Zoe

[@alejandroperezcars]

Men, 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ in EURONCAP it’s not safe?

[@chrismcardell8137]

I believe there are plans for a 2 motor performance model, The spoiler actually makes the drag co-efficient slightly worse (but looks nice).

[@barryhaeger4284]

Makes the Co of Drag worst but that's not the point it improves high-speed stability

[@jayjames5839]

Who would have thought 🤔 you could measure not with banana boxes but with a tape measure 😅 luv it. Great review

[@colla555]

1:00 there already is an AWD version in China available with 315 kW/428 HP 600 Nm and 3.8 sec 0-100km/h. It's supposed to come to Europe this year as well.

[@InBodWeTrust]

Gel case on your phone and it stays in place just fine on the shelf. 😎 AC from the right star button = use the right joystick to change temp/fan speed. Press the joystick to set Auto fan

[@bjornnyland]

I don't use gel or protection.

[@r33gts]

@@bjornnyland 😂😂😂👌

[@HH-bc2nz]

8:55 haha, very nice music mix Bjorn!

[@dean7442]

This is a good honest review. Once the infotainment bugs are gone via updates, what a great car this will be.

[@MortenB0]

MG's CEO should buy this car for his wife. Then two things might happen, the MG get a better software, or his wife leaves him. Why not go for the first one !

[@michaeloconnor599]

The best reviewer of electric cars. Brilliant

[@derseb_3810]

thx bjørn, do you have tested the turning circle because it should be an ID.3 competitor?

[@Airbag888]

900k Baht is around 20k GBP. crazy price

[@barryhaeger4284]

Great interior for Thailand why can't we get a light interior in UK instead of the BLACK on BLACK in UK with BLACK roofline!

[@sailingoctopus1]

The spoiler doesn't improve the drag coefficient, it actually makes it worse, hence the 4% lower range of the Trophy when compared with the spoiler-less SE LR that shares the same battery and drive-train

[@volkermakluakao7895]

Your clips are very interesting. I am Germen and 9 years in Thailand. My MG4 X is commimg in April. Is there a list of voice commands?

[@xbluejay]

Better than cat

[@riccardodanesin4531]

for the cover you have to open on the base. and it fit. try and you will be surprise for the genius. good music you have created 🙂 for the fun, when you click on the star, then you use the command on the sterr on the right. not on the screen

[@HenrikJacobsenDK]

My biggest issue with the interior is the missing 5th headrest as I have 3 kids. From videos I seen from China it looks like the XPower/Triumph has that, hope it comes to Nordics soon. Else, I would like less piano black, and a bit bigger and snappier center screen. (But looks like XPower/Triumph doesn’t improve on that)

[@iks77]

in europe it has a middle headrest

[@HenrikJacobsenDK]

@@iks77 In what country have you seen the MG4 with middle headrest? In Sweden it’s missing, even had the seller contact the head office to see if it was possible to get a headrest aftermarket mount, which they replied it isn’t possible. (Videos reviews of MG4 from England and Denmark it was missing as well)

[@kennethsmyth]

Is there missing trim on the top inside of the boot lid? Looks like you will see the coloured metal in your rear view mirror.

[@CreRay]

I'm pleasantly surprised by the bright upholstery. In Sweden your only choice is black, with makes the interior very dark and gloomy. I hope that MG decides to bring that variant too!

[@markeaton6734]

On the hot screen where the touch didn't work, it looks like you use the joy stick on the steering wheel to make the adjustments

[@bjornnyland]

Didn't work either.

[@electroumit]

Thank you. Good review.

[@tw5917]

Wonder why budget EVs don't go for smaller wheels... I don't like the big wheels, although they look better, I would rather have efficiency

[@DavidWilliams-nb5up]

Totally agreed 😊

[@HELLienadO]

@9:05 this is only getting better and better... 🤣

[@iks77]

[@felixsanhueza]

The backseat headroom is kind of Thaï-t?

[@slavishamladenovski699]

When you are using AC with the favorite button on the steering w. you must use the the buttons for up ,down ,left and right on the side where is the favorite button to control temperature and the fans i think ,and then it will be not buggy

[@FCFimpair]

Nice door closing music😂

[@jackiekoh1524]

We need one pedal drive on MG4 to perfect it.

[@tourhuntr]

Thanks for the review. I have the exact size as you, 173 cm. Do you think you can sleep in the car? will where be a camping test if you are back in norway?

[@jasonblair4057]

This car has good bones. Drive, comfort and quiet, now they have to sort the software. Nice to see more competition and options. These will not come to North America.

[@mateuszbalon3762]

Good test Bjørn

[@patpong5873]

Bjorn was you in pattaya jomtien today I think I saw you 👀 in the MG4

[@luisag763]

Nice door sound ahhaha

[@pedrocarrilho6188]

Hi. Great video. How do you feel this car compared with the ZOE? Space? Electric specs? The trunk? 5 people riding? What do you say?

[@user-eq3dm4zt5w]

Zoe's very small in comparison, this one's way better : 80kW charging (30 min 10-80%), longer range...

[@gergall1809]

DJ Bjorn indahouse!

[@mountaintraveler5432]

Thanks for the great reviews Bjorn! Have you heard any news if the performance model (AWD 3.8sec 0-100) will be released in Thailand?

[@thomaszhang2358]

The AWD model has been delivered in China, I think it will be released soon in other countries.

[@jfabaf]

I'm waiting for 1000 km challenge. I don't know why MG4 doesn't charge at 117 kW

[@Thulebeez]

Yo Bjorn What kind of Video camera are using in you videos?

He has a whole video dedicated to his equipment on channel.

[@supamario3055]

10:20

[@kamentabakov5302]

I bet that logic is that when you toggle the hvac from the steering wheel it show you on the main display, but you have to control it from the steering wheel. Have you tried that?

[@Marco_Dubbleyou]

Oh lord, the buttons that are not working… ID3 58… whom had copied from whom?

[@garethwalker3446]

Why do you and other reviewers concentrate so much on adjusting temperature etc when on the move. Surely the idea of climate control is that you pre set the temperature and let the system do its thing. If on this car you must have that facility then use one of the two custom buttons to do it.

[@bjornnyland]

Because I have actually driven the car over 1000 km and I needed to adjust the temperature because the car could not keep a comfortable cabin temperature when the water changed?

[@sargfowler9603]

I don't think the compromises in this car outweigh the benefit of how cheap it is. The bigger battery version seems the best value

[@narvuntien]

This is the car I want in th is colour. I know that the software isn't great but my only other option is the Cupra Born,whoes software also isn't great or the BYD dolphin who has a little too little range.

why don't you buy a tesla plaid?

[@Dreadpirateflappy]

it's more than 4 times the price of this car...

[@richardthegreat]

The spoiler actually reduces the range on the car. In Ireland and the UK we have 3 specs, the “small” LFP and the “large” battery, the large battery spec is the basic spec and the sporty spec, with the spoiler the range is reduced by 15km 😂

[@riccardodanesin4531]

it's not the spoiler! it's not possible. we don't know why mg writed 425 for luxury. the luxury has also heat pump... spoiler is not made to do down force! but better aerodinamics

[@iks77]

the spoiler is always there

[@richardthegreat]

@@iks77 nope. Lookup the MG4 SE in the UK, no spoiler, better range.

Great video as always. At around 2:21 you show the tow hook (you say it is big long and black), wasn't sure if you knew what it was but this may help, shows how to install it in a car (kzbin.info/www/bejne/apybopJmaqelaNE)

[@shivan6416]

Bjorn, you have to do your homework. The spoiler causes about 30km of autonomy to be lost... Asian engineering for the win ! 🤣

[@stiglinneberg751]

Good review! However, I don't care how price competetive this car is, nor wether it drives well or not. Those who think about purchasing this car should make a second thought about who is behind the MG company.

[@rkgsd]

An MG isn't legit unless it's British.

[@SNORKYMEDIA]

where do you think most car parts are made?

[@rkgsd]

@@SNORKYMEDIA It would be one thing if MG was still a BRITISH company owned by BRITISH PEOPLE and was using Chinese parts, but it's now a CHINESE company that bought the MG logo to make it look like it's still British.
