Verdict

The MG 4 EXTD Range asks RM28,000 more than the MG 4 Lux, and the money goes into hardware you can feel: 77.0 kWh instead of 64.0 kWh, 520 km rather than 435 km, and 242 hp versus 200 hp. It is also much quicker to 100 km/h, at 6.1 seconds against 7.7. For a Malaysian buyer doing regular intercity runs, that extra 85 km matters. If most charging is done at home and daily mileage is predictable, the Lux keeps the same size, boot and safety basics for less.

Lux

Pick the MG 4 Lux if you want the cheaper MG 4 and can live with 435 km of range and a 7.7-second 0–100 km/h time.

EXTD Range

Pick the MG 4 EXTD Range if the 520 km range, 242 hp output and 6.1-second sprint justify the extra spend.
