New Second - Generation MG4 to Feature Semi - Solid - State Battery Technology, Bookings Open on August 5
The new second - generation MG4 electric hatchback will debut with a groundbreaking battery technology when bookings open on August 5. According to general manager Chen Cui, this innovation is part of MG’s strategy to differentiate itself through technological advancements rather than price competition, in line with predecessor Zhao Yan’s comments about introducing semi - solid - state battery technology in MG’s first new car this year. The use of a semi - solid electrolyte is expected to significantly enhance energy density and safety, likely resulting in faster charging and either increased range or reduced weight. Previously reported to use a lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery, it is unclear if this was a ruse or if there was a last - minute specification change to incorporate semi - solid - state technology. The MG4 may offer conventional LFP batteries in lower - spec models, reserving the new tech for higher - end variants. One clue is that the car is around 150kg lighter than the old model at 1,485kg. The new MG4 will shift from the sportier, lower - slung design of its predecessor to a taller, MPV - like one - box design, with a Cyberster - inspired friendly front end. Additionally, the MG4 will debut the latest phone connectivity technology with Oppo devices, expected to be exclusive to the Chinese market. The car is set to go on sale on September 5, one month after bookings open.
