However, the issue of charging stations may be a major obstacle for MG4. In Vietnam, currently only VinFast owns a nationwide charging station system and the company has no plans to share with other brands.

MG4 is positioned in the C-class hatchback segment with dimensions of length x width x height of 4,287 x 1,836 x 1,516 mm respectively (Photo: MG Thailand).
Other electric car models currently on sale in our country such as Porsche Taycan and Mercedes-Benz EQS all rely heavily on charging stations installed at dealerships or at home. Therefore, without developing its own charging infrastructure, MG4's customer base will be quite limited even if the car has an accessible price.
Sales consultants said that if launched for sale in Vietnam, MG4 will come with a mobile charger, but not all users have a private car park at home to recharge the car.
