Local Production and Affordability Incentives
The MG 4 EV is manufactured locally in Indonesia as a Completely Knocked Down (CKD) model, in compliance with the Domestic Component Level (TKDN) requirement of 40%. The action not only promotes local production but also makes the vehicle cheaper for Indonesian consumers. In complying with the TKDN requirements, the MG 4 EV gets a 10% Value Added Tax (VAT) incentive, which reduces its price further.
Performance and Driving Experience
The MG 4 EV packs strong performance considering it is an electric car. Equipped with a 51 kWh battery pack, it boasts a range of 425 km per charge. It has its fast-charging system that loads the battery between 10% and 80% in under 35 minutes, which certainly helps when crossing long distances. Its rear-wheel drive ensures super-efficient acceleration as it hits a 0-100 km/h in only 7.7 seconds.
