Overview
Charging the MG4 at home
Base MG4s take 6.6 kW AC, so a 7 kW charger is the sweet spot. The 77 kWh Long Range and XPower step up to 11 kW three-phase.
Best for: Driving enthusiasts on a budget who want a rear-wheel-drive hot hatch.
What makes it different
Why the MG4 stands out
- Rear-wheel drive, 50:50 weight balance — proper drivers' hatch
- 6.6 kW AC on base trims, 11 kW on Long Range and XPower
- 150 kW DC on XPower — quickest DC top-up in this price bracket
- V2L 2.2 kW plus Level 2 autonomy at highway speeds
The base MG4 caps at 6.6 kW — pick your charger to match
A 7 kW single-phase Zappi is a perfect match for the base 51 kWh MG4. Only step up to 22 kW if you have the XPower or Long Range and already have three-phase at the switchboard.
Empty to full: 8 to 11 hours depending on battery size
11 kW models: about 7 hours 15 min for the 77 kWh pack
50 km added in about 1 hour 30 min on 6.6 kW
Our pick for the MG4

We match the charger to what your car can actually accept. Buying a 22 kW unit for a MG4 that only takes 6.6 kW / 11 kW AC is money spent on kilowatts you'll never use. This recommendation gets you charged overnight without overspending.

- Type 2 / CCS2 socket, native to the MG
- Backed by our 10-year installation warranty
