Great review! I like the updated steering wheel no more 3rd stalk for the cruise control that you always bump when entering the car 🤣. Owned an mg5 for 2 years now and is happy our purchase. Hope to upgrade to another mg model.
Time to experiment! Trip to baguio with an EV. 1. EV should be at full charge. Start in manila 2. No stops for charging along the way. 3. Can charge at sm baguio to go back to manila
I love watching your videos even when I'm not really interested in the vehicle you are featuring. 1 thing though, may I suggest replacing the balikbayan boxes with standard 26" luggages to demonstrate the trunk space as I'm pretty sure most of us can better relate to that.😊
Not only that the charging time? Long drive and you runout of juice where to charge is there any charging infrastructure thats the biggest ? Mark...hope they review more in depth pros and cons really be more realistic.
Only issues now is the tech on the batteries (longer range, replacement sustainability) and charging infrastructures especially outside major cities. Until then, PH will rely on ICE vehicles.
Regardless of the brand , if its an EV with a low ground clearance, be mindful of road obstacles that you drive over that might potentially hit the floor area of your EV. Because, if the force of such an impact is strong enough to deform and potentially damage the floor which is most probably the case that holds the Lithium Ion battery, that could mean the end of your EV or the end of your wallet.
I hope aurodeal makes a review in a long drive how many hours when charging if you run out of juice and your in the middle of nowhere where to charge. More in-depth review...

while in america most buyers are abandoning their desire to acquire ev cars, we on the other hand are bombarded with hype of the benefits of ev cars. how long will it keep up hype
It’s because EVs are actually more suited to the Philippines than the US. Range anxiety shouldn’t really be a big factor here if you’re just commuting within Metro Manila. What we have in the Philippines is an endless amount of traffic jams and which is where an EV would shine. Imagine my commute to Makati (around 40 km back and forth) an EV with 200km range can last me a week.
Philippines need to fix their transit options first and crazy electricity prices (in proportion to average income) before riding on the “EV-is-the-future” trend.
We have problem on our grid a lot of brownouts. EV will cause more brownouts. Also, how many charging station we have here? If sa bahay wall socket it takes ages to charge. Long trip, you have to plan ur trip bka walng charging station. I would ask car reviewers to compare EV to ICE and hybrid vehicles and see the cost. Its true that its zero emission but our grid is not 100 renewsable we still use coal.
Does this low end variant has the dreaded lane assist feature that takes over control from the driver? Such a feature is dangerous. The human driver must have full control of the vehicle and not the other way around.
No thanks. Kung swap able lang yung battery ok lang katulad ng Gogoro scooter na pag na lowbat i swap lang ng fully charge na battery sa mga station. Para pag masira battery mo. Hindi ka ga gasto ng half the price ng kotse para sa battery replacement. Mas pipili parin ako ng gasoline car

Iba ang Driver license ng Electric Vehicles sa Traditional Driver License need mo ulit mag Exam. Pag nahuli mahal ang multa. Impound pa wheels mo. Category B ang Traditional Petrol Vehicles ang Electric Vehicles kailangan Category M and N.
1 burning question I have with EV's in general that all reviewers here in the PH is not covering is when the battery dies on this models 7-10 yrs down the line, how epxensive is it to replace? specially for our family who owns cars 10-12 yrs at a time before upgrading to a newer model and I guess for 2nd hand car buyers in the future of this model should also consider.
Wow, using a fast charger costs about the same as filling up an IC vehicle? The Philippines really wants to make life harder for everyone huh? Charging up EVs should be cheaper than filling up ICE vehicles (for the same distance), regardless of the type of charger used. Our country really needs to hit the reset button
Two words. "Thermal Runaway" spontaneous fire that is incredibly hot and impossible to extinguish. Will destroy anything near the car and anybody in it. Chinese at its best
In my observation Besides,.Of being a reliable car ev's are already slowly entering our showroom floors,,..That some are full ev's and some are halfly driven with still their respective engines But nevertheless,.Your still going to have a car that is excempted from coding,,..BIG PLUS TOO is the quiteness of your everytrip 👍😉👍 So having,.At leasf! ONE EV car on your garage won't be a pain in your buck But since it's an ev,.A secondary MUST HAVES! IS A FIRE EXTINGUISHER So that,.If ever something go's wrong! Your just one spray away to safety
this is the best ev for the price point ❤❤❤ this is my first ev car im going to buy 👍👍👍💪💪💪 if you are so rich so don't buy this car just buy those 1.9 m or 2 m price ev car hahahahaha
Been driving it for almost 3 weeks now. Trust me, you’ll love the drive, the free charging and dedicated parking in malls. And ICE vehicles feels so sluggish now when i use our ford vehicles. If you can dish out a little bit more money i think the lux versions is worth it. The camera, light bar, spoiler definitely gives it a more unique look and functionality. Driving an orange lux btw. The only thing i dont like about it is that the App is not yet available and its not wireless carplay/android auto. Not major dealbreakers
No reverse camera, that is so stupid, its maybe hard to find an aftermarket reverse cam, maybe dealer installed sets u back 60 to 80k, that is an essential in today's car, ditch this go for the BYD
Why can't EVs just look like any standard car? I know there are EV variants of some popular ICE cars that look the same, but 95% of all of them just look weird.
My issue ang MG sa sirang A/C, pinabalikbalik yung may ari, upto 4 years na hindi parin naayos. Pinaasa at pinaikot at pinagastos lng ng todo yung owner. Mabuti pa iwasan nlng ang MG.
CASA-specific, unfair kung sasabihin mong iwasan ang brand ng dahil lang sa kasalanan ng ilang CASA while the many dealerships are working hard for their aftersales service.
The 8-year battery warranty doesn't mean the car will stop working after 8 years. For an EV, that's 8 years of no change oils, no expenses for filters, no spark plug replacements.
@@sibutotheworld the ev should be useable for more than 12 years at the least to recover the cost if the buyers purpose is to save money from it. And what if the battery broke down after the warranty? Wish it’s not but it may and imagine the headache when that happens, a battery for hybrids is already around 300k! what more if it’s full electric?
@@scalemodeltutor9841 If you're able to make it last for 10 years, then the car is fully depreciated, hence zero book value. An odo of 150,000 miles or 240,000 kms is more than enough. With that mileage, the value of your vehicle is close to zero. And besides, these days, no owner wants to drive the same car for more than 5 years. I myself, ditched my 4-yr old car with 18K odo and bought a new one. And in reply to comment, an EV battery will not die instantly, unless it has been physically damaged. It may not give you a 100% charge after 12 years but even at 50%, it will still give you the distance you need. You just have to take care of it. Like, avoiding fast chargers. You can always charge it at home every night. Slowly but surely.
Why would anyone buy an EV, IF you need the battery replacement it will cost you almost the same as buying a new car. You can check out other issues on this.
@@StarsStripes-vh7kw ICE car owners being butthurt because they can get easily smoked by EVs in city roads and highways. EV batteries don't give out that easily you funchums. Learn how to use google about the lifecycles of EV batteries.
Philippines is not EV ready. Ang mahal ng kuryente. Minsan brown out pa. Saan mo isasaksak yan? Majority ng charging stations nasa mall. Not all the time nasa mall ka. Kung aberya ka sa daan, you can’t call a regular mechanic . You have to call the manufacturer to provide service at your location . Eh Kung nasa liblib ka na lugar? Pano na?
You clearly don't belong to one of the target markets for EVs then. If you have the money to buy an MG4, then you probably have money to buy a solar setup at home, or you know, pay for electricity. Besides, EV charging at the malls is free ;)
Home charging is too slow, plus the constant plug-in hassle and kid-related worries. Our infrastructure isn't ready for full EV, and the missing small features are as crucial as the basics in today's cars. Honestly, not sold on this car. 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
I would not be buying an EV anytime soon. You only have to scrape the battery tray and your insurance company will most likely write it off, because no reputable repairer will not want to replace the entire battery pack, costing hundreds of thousands of Philippine pesos. Also, google EV fires, EV battery replacement or even Hybrid battery replacement.
@@josephnova7864you might have not heard about MG5 Core MT. The cheapest in MG cars line up with steering wheel controls, 8" infotainment with Apple Carplay and Android Auto, reverse cam and sensors, LED tail lights and DRLs compared to its competitors with basic features.

Probably not for a long time. We rode the Chinese car buying band wagon and regretted it. Went back to Japan made.
DNGA Yaris Cross isn't made in Japan as its a made in Indonesia vehicle 😂😂😂
Just curious, what car?
fun fact: MG is owned by SAIC (Shanghai Auto Industry Corp)
Fun fact, you use Shopee and Lazada to buy cheap stuff from China.
Ano po yung "watnat" ?

Wow, using a fast charger costs about the same as filling up an IC vehicle? The Philippines really wants to make life harder for everyone huh? Charging up EVs should be cheaper than filling up ICE vehicles (for the same distance), regardless of the type of charger used. Our country really needs to hit the reset button
Two words. "Thermal Runaway" spontaneous fire that is incredibly hot and impossible to extinguish. Will destroy anything near the car and anybody in it. Chinese at its best
All EVs are like that especially the Japanese,Korean,American and German EVs
@@KuchingKingVideoGamer certainly the Germans. But the Chinese are worst of all
Is thermal runaway exclusive to china?
"When you finally graduate from high school and decide to drive the car like a normal human being" lmao I died!
Caco's 'sneeze test' is going to be a regular thing on his EV reviews 😂
Much like the visor test on The Straight Pipes channel😂
@@derekfernandez1437 and the tonneau test by carwow
In my observation
Besides,.Of being a reliable car ev's are already slowly entering our showroom floors,,..That some are full ev's and some are halfly driven with still their respective engines
But nevertheless,.Your still going to have a car that is excempted from coding,,..BIG PLUS TOO is the quiteness of your everytrip 👍😉👍
So having,.At leasf! ONE EV car on your garage won't be a pain in your buck
But since it's an ev,.A secondary MUST HAVES! IS A FIRE EXTINGUISHER
So that,.If ever something go's wrong! Your just one spray away to safety
Fire extinguisher will not work for ev fire😵
di ko na gets ung 9:53 joke haha. can somebody explain??
this is the best ev for the price point ❤❤❤ this is my first ev car im going to buy 👍👍👍💪💪💪 if you are so rich so don't buy this car just buy those 1.9 m or 2 m price ev car hahahahaha
Been driving it for almost 3 weeks now. Trust me, you’ll love the drive, the free charging and dedicated parking in malls. And ICE vehicles feels so sluggish now when i use our ford vehicles.
If you can dish out a little bit more money i think the lux versions is worth it. The camera, light bar, spoiler definitely gives it a more unique look and functionality. Driving an orange lux btw.
The only thing i dont like about it is that the App is not yet available and its not wireless carplay/android auto. Not major dealbreakers
yes that's the point. An affordable EV. compare to tesla.
No reverse camera, that is so stupid, its maybe hard to find an aftermarket reverse cam, maybe dealer installed sets u back 60 to 80k, that is an essential in today's car, ditch this go for the BYD
Reverse camera is on the high end variant priced at 1.7 Million 😊
@KuchingKingVideoGamer but why, even a 600 k Wigo has a reverse camera, why leave the basic safety tool.
Why can't EVs just look like any standard car? I know there are EV variants of some popular ICE cars that look the same, but 95% of all of them just look weird.
Cuz normal cars look dull and boring having a unique design is a selling point if you don't like it you got a problem
My issue ang MG sa sirang A/C, pinabalikbalik yung may ari, upto 4 years na hindi parin naayos. Pinaasa at pinaikot at pinagastos lng ng todo yung owner. Mabuti pa iwasan nlng ang MG.
CASA-specific, unfair kung sasabihin mong iwasan ang brand ng dahil lang sa kasalanan ng ilang CASA while the many dealerships are working hard for their aftersales service.
by that comment malamang taasan ang presyo … 😅
I think BYD is better
nissan kicks or this? 🤔🤔🤔
MG4
Kicks are discontinued as well, read it somewhere.
@@plutostreetclothing3785 the kicks e-power has been discontinued? 🤔
Considering the cost of replacement batteries, these are literally disposable cars after 8 years onwards.
The 8-year battery warranty doesn't mean the car will stop working after 8 years. For an EV, that's 8 years of no change oils, no expenses for filters, no spark plug replacements.
@@sibutotheworld the ev should be useable for more than 12 years at the least to recover the cost if the buyers purpose is to save money from it. And what if the battery broke down after the warranty? Wish it’s not but it may and imagine the headache when that happens, a battery for hybrids is already around 300k! what more if it’s full electric?
@@scalemodeltutor9841 If you're able to make it last for 10 years, then the car is fully depreciated, hence zero book value. An odo of 150,000 miles or 240,000 kms is more than enough. With that mileage, the value of your vehicle is close to zero. And besides, these days, no owner wants to drive the same car for more than 5 years. I myself, ditched my 4-yr old car with 18K odo and bought a new one.
And in reply to comment, an EV battery will not die instantly, unless it has been physically damaged.
It may not give you a 100% charge after 12 years but even at 50%, it will still give you the distance you need. You just have to take care of it. Like, avoiding fast chargers. You can always charge it at home every night. Slowly but surely.
Support for EV batteries has been getting better, but it is still less convenient than ICE because it is still a niche market. Hopefully someday.
If you can change the battery on it, it's not disposable.
To say the motor is running while the car is stationary is nonsensical and displays a complete ignorance of things automotive
Why would anyone buy an EV, IF you need the battery replacement it will cost you almost the same as buying a new car. You can check out other issues on this.
EVs don't break down easily compared to your GR86 with various engine and mechanical problems 😂😂
@@KuchingKingVideoGamer Consumer Reports says otherwise.
@@StarsStripes-vh7kw ICE car owners being butthurt because they can get easily smoked by EVs in city roads and highways. EV batteries don't give out that easily you funchums. Learn how to use google about the lifecycles of EV batteries.
Philippines is not EV ready. Ang mahal ng kuryente. Minsan brown out pa. Saan mo isasaksak yan? Majority ng charging stations nasa mall. Not all the time nasa mall ka. Kung aberya ka sa daan, you can’t call a regular mechanic . You have to call the manufacturer to provide service at your location . Eh Kung nasa liblib ka na lugar? Pano na?
You clearly don't belong to one of the target markets for EVs then. If you have the money to buy an MG4, then you probably have money to buy a solar setup at home, or you know, pay for electricity. Besides, EV charging at the malls is free ;)
Home charging is too slow, plus the constant plug-in hassle and kid-related worries. Our infrastructure isn't ready for full EV, and the missing small features are as crucial as the basics in today's cars. Honestly, not sold on this car. 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
I would not be buying an EV anytime soon. You only have to scrape the battery tray and your insurance company will most likely write it off, because no reputable repairer will not want to replace the entire battery pack, costing hundreds of thousands of Philippine pesos.
Also, google EV fires, EV battery replacement or even Hybrid battery replacement.
🎉
MG being MG who loves to cut some basic features on their basic models LOL.
This is the base variant..The fully loaded version is priced at 1.7 Million Pesos
@@KuchingKingVideoGamer yeah i watch the video. As i said and mentioned by the video mg cuts some of the basic features an entry does have.
@@josephnova7864you might have not heard about MG5 Core MT. The cheapest in MG cars line up with steering wheel controls, 8" infotainment with Apple Carplay and Android Auto, reverse cam and sensors, LED tail lights and DRLs compared to its competitors with basic features. Now, who loves to cut basic features? Lol
MG NOW MADE IN CHINA NOT UK...
They also have factories in India, Thailand, Taiwan, Indonesia, etc.
They failed NCAP right?
Wow, that's not good at all 😢
One car did, the MG5/GT
it's the MG 5/GT
This MG 4EV got 5 Star both Euro NCAP & ANCAP
So it passed the safety rating, but just this past September, in AU, 3 MG EVs were on fire while charging. 😢
MG4 scored 5 stars at Euro NCAP...There's a RUclips video of it
Not for me! The batteries are EXPENSIVE! No insurance company will insure the car without hurting your wallet. EVs are MONEY PIT⚠️🚩
Be careful what you wish for.
Second
Fourth
In my opinion the electric cars are so expensive because no one will buy a used EV. 😂😅
Yup. In the US and other countries...
The problem of this is the one speaking
I think the real problem is your brain
yun na nga lang non-EV cars nila sirain na yan pa kayang EV???? good luck sa mga bibili ng EV ng MG kung meron man papaloko HAHAHAHA
