MG Motor Malaysia has announced it is offering an upgrade option for the Standard variant of the MG4 EV. For just RM1,600, you’ll be able to replace the default black fabric seats with new ones that are trimmed in leatherette with suede accents.
This upgrade can be purchased by both new and existing owners of the base variant of the MG4 EV. The Standard currently retails for RM104,629 on-the-road without insurance, so adding the upgrade brings the total figure to RM106,229.
For the money, you get a rear electric motor rated at 170 PS (168 hp or 125 kW) and 250 Nm torque, which is good for a 0-100 km/h time of 7.5 seconds and top speed of 160 km/h. Powering the electric motor is a lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery with a gross energy capacity of 51 kWh (50.8 kWh usable) that provides 350 km of range following the WLTP standard.
In terms of charging, the MG4 Standard supports up to 117 kW of DC fast charging, taking 37 minutes to charge from 10-80%. As for AC charging, it’ll take eight hours to get from 10-100% with the maximum supported input of 7 kW.
Equipment that comes with the Standard include 17-inch alloy wheels, LED headlamps, a seven-inch digital instrument cluster, a 10.25-inch infotainment touchscreen, a four-speaker audio system, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay support, six airbags, autonomous emergency braking, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, auto high beam, adaptive cruise control, traffic jam assist and driver attention alert.

Why are they still ain’t giving the reverse camera and blind spot monitor on the standard. These are cheap items.
Maximum DC fast charging for MG4 Standard is around 87kW, and not 117kW.
What this car needs is a reverse camera, not suede seats. The rear window is completely pointless

MG cars price and specs are not bad, i hope they can success and expand in Malaysia.
i have had my MG4 standard for almost 5 months already and i has been superb. Prefer the fabric seats as they seemed to be good material and it probablty last longer compared to the vinyl and suede like fabric. Reverse camera blind spot is a ball breaker for me but aftermarket reverse cam which also double as a front rear dashcam was provided by the dealer and it actually has better quality than the factory units on the higher range models.Reason I went standard is for the LFP battery which are much safer and better for hot climates. Being the lightest also makes it a lot of fun to drive..
