Deprived of an ecological bonus in France and now subject to compensating customs duties at European level, electric cars produced in China must deal with a political context which is not favorable to them. However, despite attempts by legislators to slow down the arrival of Chinese groups in Europe, the latter demonstrate that their competitiveness is still not hampered. Thus, if the rise of MG Motor was penalized in France by the lapse of the ecological bonus in 2024 for models produced in China, the manufacturer was able to use discounts to maintain the competitiveness of its models. And while the ecological bonus has just been cut, reducing the advantage granted to electric cars produced in Europe, MG is driving the point home by further increasing the discounts on its electric cars.

€21,990 is the price at which the MG4, this compact electric sedan rivaling the Renault Megane E-Tech, is displayed, while the Frenchwoman is asking from €34,000 excluding bonuses.

At this price, the compact is equipped with a 51 kWh capacity battery. total which gives it a range of 350 km WLTP, but the 64 kWh battery versions, offering up to 435 km of range, are also eligible for this promotion, including the XPOWER sports version.
This same promotion is also valid on the ZS EV city SUV, certainly at the end of its life, which starts at €23,990 for a range of 320 km. The MG5 station wagon (320 or 400 km range) and the Marvel R family SUV (402 km range) go even further with a €10,000 discount, still on models in stock.
