The teaser video of the electric SUV was posted on MG Motor's social media handle with the hashtag ‘MGElectricforAll’. It suggests that the carmaker is looking to come up with an affordable electric car. MG Motor had earlier said that it will also bring in a new affordable EV to the Indian markets this year. However, it is not clear, if MG Motor is planning to launch the same model in India too.

MG already offers ZS EV in India as its only electric offering. In December last year, Rajeev Chaba, President and MD at MG Motor India, had said, “In our endeavour to broaden access to wider customer segments, we will bring to the country the second EV, encouraged by the Government’s clarity on its EV roadmap."

According to reports, the MG 4 is likely to take on EVs like the Kia EV 6. The electric SUV is slightly larger in size compared to Volkswagen ID.3 electric car.

The MG 4 electric SUV is likely to come packed with a 61.1 kWh battery unit. The electric motor is expected to generate maximum output of 154 hp and 260 Nm of peak torque. Reports suggest, the unit should be enough to help the MG 4 to accelerate from zero to 100 kmph in a little over seven seconds. It is also expected to return a range of more than 400 kms on a single charge according to the WLTP cycle.
