The MG 4 hatchback has been named Australia’s best affordable electric vehicle (EV) in the inaugural 2025 CarExpert Choice awards.
It beat out the BYD Dolphin hatch and BYD Atto 3 mid-size SUV.
The MG 4 is one of the cheapest EVs on the market, but it didn’t simply win this because of a low price.

Its driving dynamics belie its price tag, with agile handling aided by its rear-wheel drive layout – a point of distinction from some of its most direct rivals.
Performance is peppy even at the base level, but you can step up to the blisteringly fast XPower flagship if you so desire.
Not only is the MG 4 a good steer, it has a comfortable ride and a quiet, roomy cabin.
Throw in one of the very best warranties in the business, and the MG 4 shapes as not only a compelling alternative to its electric rivals, but to combustion-powered and hybrid small cars too.
