    WOW, Thomas...
    I think I must've watched, maybe, 10 or more reviews of the MG4 over the last month, yet yours is the ONLY one that has demonstrated the steering wheel hot-keys in operation - a really important feature compared to the likes of the iD.3 where those functions are buried in the infotainment system.
    Fantastic work, fella... 🏆
    Oh, and I think the English term you were looking for in describing the rear-view camera 'distortion' is it has a "fish-eye" view. 👍
    But, if you don't mind me saying, I think your use of English is absolutely astonishing - I've no idea where you learnt the language but some of the phrases and descriptions you use - like the word 'accentuation', for example - would shame most UK-born reviewers...!! 🤣

      Halogens are great for cost saving especially for the turn signals. If you want LED turn signals with smooth blinking light then you'll need a PWM module (PWM is the reason why you see some LED lights flashing on and off in camera but not visible to human eyes) which control the dimming effect for the light and will add even more cost to the car while halogen bulbs don't need all of that to have the smooth blinking effect.

    I have said this on pretty much every video for this car and I'll say it here again.
    The Short Range version uses LFP battery chemistry.
    Nobody mentions battery chemistry for some reason but it's worth mentioning as you can charge it to 100% with almost no battery degradation, as opposed to the regular lithium battery chemistry which should only be charged to 80% regularly to preserve long term battery health.
    Actually the long range version at 80% should have the same range as the short range version at 100%, so something to consider perhaps for some people.
    Also there are active vents above the front splitter in the LR version that close on the highway to improve the aero I believe.

Although the Chevy Bolt is available here, and while quite basic, is about the only affordable EV here in the states.
      There is really only one country where EVs are actually cheap though, and that's China. There is a very basic MG4 with the small battery that is under 20k USD in China, and BYD will soon launch the Seagull city car that might be as cheap as 12k USD.

      You are wrong, it is the legislation. European legislation has set CO2 targets which manufacturers can only achieve by selling enough EVs, in fact the EV sales offset the ICE cars, but the targets become stricter and stricter over the coming decade. You can't call out a manufacturer for following legislation targets... From 2035 on ICE sales will be banned anyway, except for those who run on green fuels only. Hydrogen would also be an option, at least in theory as they are interpreted as 0 CO2 in legislation.

    09:27 Does the climate control triggered on the steering wheel (with the ☆ programmable button and adjusted with the joystick nearby) also displays the climate graphic pop-over sheet on the screen while under Apple CarPlay or Android Auto? And if so, without quitting the smartphone mirroring UI?

    Hopefully they can iron out the niggles as it has huge potential. It's price point should not excuse fit and finish or functionality of what is actually fitted. I note that many reviewers excuse badly fitted panels and seat covers, or even functional issues with it's price. I believe the UK spec does not have a heat pump.
