An automotive YouTuber has revealed his thoughts on a popular electric vehicle, stating that it offers good value for money.<\/p>\n
Paul runs the channel Life of Cars, and regularly posts videos in which he reviews a variety of cars and informs drivers on how to fix common issues.<\/p>\n
In one of his most recent videos, Paul talks to a relative who bought an MG4 eight weeks ago about the switch from petrol to electric.<\/p>\n
The relative said: \u201cIt\u2019s just easy, it does it all for you. Acceleration off the line is pretty sharp, that\u2019s a big difference.<\/p>\n
\u201cI like to put it into eco mode and into energy saving mode which obviously helps with the battery, especially driving long distances.\u201d<\/p>\n

I think electric cars are definitely going in the right direction, but the battery sizes are what\u2019s letting it down at the moment.<\/p>\n \u201cFrom a full charge it says you\u2019d get 300 [miles], I think you\u2019d get 240 in the summer and then it\u2019ll go down to about 200 in the winter.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n Launched in the UK in September 2022, the MG4 is a fully electric family car, produced in Ningde, China.<\/p>\n With prices starting at \u00a326,995, it has been a popular choice for motorists buying their first electric car, becoming the second best-selling EV in the UK during the first quarter of 2023.<\/p>\n However, whilst the prices are low for an electric model of this size, performance is also impressive, with the all-wheel-drive XPower variant accelerating from 0-62mph in just 3.8 seconds.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/24\/590x\/secondary\/MG4-2-4955327.jpg?r=1694536222423\")
