The MG4 is staggering value for money – particularly if you go for the smallest battery size and entry-level SE trim. It has a competitive range, can charge pretty quickly, has roomy rear seats and you even get lots of standard equipment. Some rivals are more polished to drive and have better interiors, but they cost thousands more to buy.

The XPOWER has a similar amount of standard equipment as the Trophy versions of the MG4, although adds stiffer suspension, stickier tyres, unique 18in alloys and a driving management system with a g-force meter and a lap timer.

The MG4 XPOWER delivers truly jaw-dropping acceleration. It has a second electric motor driving the front wheels to give it four-wheel drive and a colossal 429bhp in total. In our tests, it managed to sprint from 0-60mph in just 3.6 seconds.
