Very interesting show. Really look forward to it

[@autodigitvlogs]

They can do 1500 a year in Thailand and China. UK is close but price is hindering

Really disappointing that MG still doesn't do OTA updates - my previous Range Rover was doing this years ago. My MG4 is a fairly early one and the software is a bit weak - OTA updates would be great!

[@chrispenn715]

I find the safety systems on the MG4 to be dodgy - I think NCAP are in denial about this and should rethink the requirements. I look forward to getting the 'software improvements'! 😃

Tell me where I'll get it today

I found the Cyberster just doesn’t have a low enough driving position for me at 6’1. At the lowest setting I was looking straight at the header rail. It needs to be two inches lower which it can’t because of the battery pack.

[@autodigitvlogs]

Its lower than the Chinese version by few inches. I found i needed to recline more and move the seat back which is fine.

[@chrisabbott683]

@@autodigitvlogs yeah I’ve heard they lowered it for Europe, unfortunately it was still way too high for me.

[@chrispenn715]

I'm an EV convert, but I don't think EV subsidies is the right way to go - the UK's car production is in decline and few EVs are made here - a subsidy would not help the UK economy - just bank roll Chinese makers. Having said that, I don't think we should impose tariffs on EV imports either. The proposed changes to EV UK road tax are a disincentive too, especially as so many will incur the 'luxury' annual tax....

5 seconds in an EV is different to 5 seconds in an ICE. Torque is higher in EV. Porsche selling the badge. Porsche EV will start at 65-70k for base at best

Don't give your wife an Xpower, she'll crash it!!! 😄

That's the key thing re. EVs ... the drive. Once you've experienced it the thought of going back to ICE makes me shudder. Re. customer services ... are MG going to be clever about this or are they still going to just be Smart? 😉 Re. Cyberster registrations ... how come the reviewers have had test cars with UK VRM plates? How have those cars been registered?
