Sleeker Design with a More Dynamic Presence
The facelifted MG 4 will be expected to follow core design language principle of currently existing models, but incorporate sharper and aerodynamic parts.
There is a driver expected to introduce a newly designed front grille, sleeker LED headlamps sportier bumper design, and thus bold appearance to the new MG 4 and much more modern. This will impart a far stronger road presence and better aerodynamic performance to an EV so as to be much closer to European and Asian EV rivals.
More Featured Refreshed Cabin

The cabin arrangements, material quality, and tech features have all been upgraded by MG, especially to address what Australian drivers are expecting. Expected improvements include a more extensive and easier-to-use touchscreen infotainment system, a completely digital instrument cluster, ambient lighting, and new soft-touch materials along the dashboard and doors as well. Seating comfort is expected to be improved for long travel enjoyable and practical for families.
Technology and Safety Improvements
In the forthcoming MG 4 facelift, software updates along driver-assist systems are expected. It may comprise improved MG Pilot, which is the brand’s advanced driver-assistance features suite in addition to adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and automatic emergency braking. There may also be over-the-air updates to keep systems current without the need to visit a dealership.
Expect No Major Changes in Powertrains
The facelift is mainly an aspect of the design and features enhancement, but not the electric powertrain. It remains to be the case that the MG 4 will continue to have its current battery options, which achieves a range from a full charge of up to 450 km, depending on the variant. However, efficiency tweaks might be introduced to bring about improvements in real-world performance.
