With progressive trajectory of electrification across the country, MG Motors Pakistan has officially added to its EV portfolio with its much-anticipated and affordable electric hatch based model: the MG4 EV Urban Pakistan variant. The new version aims to be a perfect urban mobility offering to people who prefer a more modern, emissions-free car without the luxury price tag associated with oncoming imported cars.
With a blend of European aesthetics, cutting-edge safety technology and a value point that is highly competitive among drivers in Pakistan, MG wants to ensure that EV ownership becomes possible for more people.
MG4 EV Urban Price in Pakistan and Booking Details
The Official MG Motors Pakistan Variant Page has quoted the ex-factory price of the Urban Pakistan edition of MG4 EV at PKR 6,949,000 (69.49 Lakh).
In a formal move, books are now being ordered from all authorised 3S dealerships in major cities, such as Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad. Bookings can be made for interested buyers in units worth PKR 1200000(12 Lakhs). The price tag of under 7 million is expected to have an impact on the local EV industry, making the car a threat to high-priced locally-manufactured fuel alternatives such as subcompact crossovers and grey market hybrid hatchbacks.
Technical Specifications, Battery, and Real-World Range (Specs)
The Urban is being shipped on MG’s proprietary Modular Scalable Platform (MSP), which features innovations in battery chemistry with a particular emphasis on the performance of MG’s products in hot climates. Here are some of the basic technical details:
Long battery life with high number of charge cycles: Highly respected Battery pack of 43 kWh Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) that is highly stable, safe and long lasting.
It delivers a cvc rating of up to 316 kilometres per charge – provided over the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP) – making multiple day journeys in the city easy.
Electric Motor & Power: A solid permanent magnet synchronous motor producing 148 hp and 250 Nm of torque sends power directly to the rear wheels, helping to take the fatigue out of motoring.
Able to PAMPLE Assistant charger and charge from 10% to 80% charge in about 28 minutes when connected to a PAMPLE public DC rapid charger, helping to reduce downtime during longer intercity trips.
Aerodynamic Exterior and Minimalist Interior Features
The car’s body shape is still very striking, with sharp LED headlights, smart turning headlights and active grill shutters for controlling airflow, and an aerodynamic body shape. The cabin interior adopts the high quality, minimalist decoration style to fit for the maximum passenger space.

Three-Tier Regenerative Braking: Three-Tier Regenerative Braking is an intelligent brake and regeneration system: It generates electricity when the brakes are applied, and replenishes the LFP battery’s range, which makes it ideal for high-traffic areas.
Infotainment & Connectivity: OFF-panel 10.4-inch high-definition, floating touch-screen infotainment system supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto; fully-digital instrument cluster provides critical telemetry information.
MG Pilot Safety Suite
In all respects, MG has not compromised in regards to the safety of its passengers. The Urban variant keeps the all-encompassing and highly rated MG Pilot Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) suite with features purpose-built to actively prevent crashes:
- Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
- Lane Keep Assist (LKA) & Lane Departure Warning
- Active Emergency Braking (AEB)
- Traffic Jam Assist (TJA)
They are all active features, plus enhanced security thanks to multiple SRS airbags and a robust chassis made of high-strength steel, so you can expect good security when driving around town.
For those who wish to ride the prosperity wave of visiting from volatile fuel costs and desire to embark on a premium electric powered hatchback with a nationwide manufacturer warranty, the new MG4 offers some interesting choices.
