mg4 july 67
MG Motor Australia has lobbed a very tempting offer into the market, and if you like your cars sprightly, electric and cheap to run, you should pay attention. Drive-away pricing has been reduced across the MG4 range while stocks last, with the MG4 Excite 51 starting from $37,990 DAP. That means a proper rear-wheel-drive electric hatchback can now be had for under $40,000, at least until the 2026 models show up and nick the limelight.
Why This Deal Matters
The MG4 is not some novelty. Since its launch in 2023 it has shifted more than 12,000 examples here, which is the motoring equivalent of turning up to a party and promptly being asked to DJ. It is built on a dedicated EV platform, scores a 5-star ANCAP safety rating and measures just under 4.3 metres, a tidy size for city streets and country lanes alike. Rear-wheel drive and near 50:50 weight distribution give the MG4 genuinely entertaining handling, a low centre of gravity and the sort of balance you normally only get in cars costing twice as much.
Performance And Practicality
The MG4 Excite 51 wears a 51 kWh battery that provides instant torque, smooth acceleration and quiet efficiency. That is the recipe for a very pleasant daily driver, and the range can stretch up to about 530 kilometres in the right conditions. You get responsive steering and enough shove to make motorway overtakes brisk rather than stressful, while the compact footprint keeps parking painless.
Features And Safety
Inside there is a 10.25-inch floating touchscreen with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and MG iSMART app integration so your phone and your music do not feel neglected. Safety technology is comprehensive, with Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keep Assist, Autonomous Emergency Braking and Blind Spot Detection helping to keep you out of trouble and enjoy the drive with confidence.
Free Charging With Evie
To sweeten the pot, every MG4 purchased before 31 December 2025 comes with a 12-month Evie charging voucher worth 1,000 kWh. That translates to thousands of kilometres of complimentary charging on the nation’s largest public network, which is handy if you prefer your motoring to be guilt free and cheap.
How To Take One Home
This is a run-out offer while stock lasts, so if you want a rear-wheel-drive EV that is practical, enjoyable and sensible on the wallet, now is the time. Visit your local MG dealer or the brand’s website to check plate clearance pricing, see what deals are available in your area and book a test drive. It is not often you can buy a proper electric hatchback that feels sporty without emptying the piggy bank.
