[00:00:00]a new Chinese electric crossover for just $15,000.

[00:00:05]We are talking about the MG4X model which debuted in May 2026 in the Chinese market. This car immediately attracted attention not only for its design but also for its unusual filling, especially the energy storage system. The main highlight of the MG4X lies under the bottom. Engineers have equipped the machine with an innovative liquid solid battery. It sounds complicated, but the point is simple. This is a kind of bridge between the usual lithium ion batteries and fully solid state batteries which are still far from mass production. The secret of the technology is that both liquid and solid electrolytes are used inside. This approach is designed to solve several tasks at once. To make the battery safer, to pack more energy into it, and to save owners from headaches in cold weather. The battery tolerates low temperatures better. Curiously, MG4X buyers are given a choice. They can opt for an advanced 53.9 kow-hour liquid solid state version with a power reserve of up to 510 km on the CLTC cycle. Or they can choose a more traditional but capacious lithium ion phosphate battery from CL. Its volume is 64.2 kwatt hours and the claimed mileage on a single charge reaches 610 km. Let's move on to hardware and dimensions. The NG4X is a compact but not cramped crossover. Its dimensions look balanced. The length is 4,500 mm. The width is 1,849 mm and the height is 1,621 mm. The 2,735 mm wheelbase promises plenty of room for passengers in the back row. Under the hood, or rather under the bottom, there are two versions of the electric motor.

[00:02:13]The base produces 125 kW or 168hp, while the more powerful version accelerates at the expense of 150 kW or 201HP.

[00:02:27]At the same time, the drive remains strictly rearwheel drive. No complicated all-wheel drive schemes. The salon is greeted with modern equipment which pleasantly surprises. Here you will find an advanced multimedia system. It was developed in collaboration with the OPPO brand. A laconic two-spoke wheeling that does not distract from the road. A digital dashboard that displays all the necessary information. A large touchscreen responsible for controlling smart functions. The NAOP system is worth mentioning separately. This is not just a cruise to the maximum, but an assistant who is able to independently choose a route and adjust in the flow, of course, under the control of the driver. In terms of its philosophy and technical characteristics, the MG4X is a direct competitor to the BYD3, also known as the Yuan Plus. At the same time, MG relies not only on technology, but also on accessibility. The starting price of the new product in China is fixed around 99,800 yuan or 14,754.554.
