MG Cloud EV spotted testing for first time:











Mod Note: Our MG Windsor EV Review has been taken live at this link. Please continue the discussion over on the new thread. Thanks!

Is this a 5 seater or 7 seater? I'm a bit confused reading the thread link and volkman10's post above. At 4.3m a 3 row MPV would not have luggage space left. Wuling also has a broken lorem ipsum page for the Cloud EV perhaps someone will fix it.

Why bother with this and not bring the MG4 instead?

As per the Wikipedia page
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baojun_Yunduo

This is 4295mm in length, that's roughly the same as the MG4 (4287mm)
The width is 1850mm, roughly same as MG4 (1836mm)
The wheelbase is identical on both at 2700mm (same as a Honda Civic/Toyota Altis)..
And yes, both of them are 2-row 5-seaters.

The biggest difference between the two is the height (Cloud EV is substantially taller by about 14cm) and the MG4 is substantially more powerful with the least powerful MG4 outputting 30hp more than the most powerful Cloud EV.

The story is similar for battery capacity as well. The biggest battery on the Cloud EV is the same as the smallest one on the MG4.

And when it comes to looks, this looks like a fat cow (no offends) while the MG4 looks like a downsized Lamborghini.

Cloud EV is just not aspirational enough (at least for me). Gives it very little chance of success.

I’m so miffed too. I absolutely hate how it looks. As I stated before why not the MG4 when Nepal and Pak gets it.

MG Cloud EV patented in India;

The Cloud EV could be the third electric offering from MG in India
Gets two battery pack options in global markets

Globally, the MG Cloud is offered with 50.6kWh and 37.9kWh battery packs paired with an electric motor that claims to return a range of 460km and 360km, respectively.

[volkman10]

MG Cloud EV likely to be priced under Rs 20 lakh.

Cloud EV will sit below the MG ZS EV in the brand’s line-up; gets a born-EV platform.

The Cloud EV is slightly smaller than traditional MPVs like the Maruti Ertiga and Kia Carens in India, but should find itself in a unique position for being the only all-electric model in its class until the Kia Carens EV arrives here in the second half of 2025.

I feel some MG's upcoming models needs a design change, their design is too roundish or not that edgy to begin with. Some of these I feel are not that high on desirability quotient look wise.

Having said that I would also say Maxus and EHs models really look good. So lets wait and watch.

The MG Yep Plus

Don't really know how much of it is true but read it online on a different automotive portal that MG is planning on launching the above two in India. Thought of sharing their videos here for everyone to take a sneak peek.

Does MG hold any internal competition to see who can design the worst looking car?

Joke 1 - This is a supposedly a Born EV platform
Joke 2 - This makes more sense than the MG4
Joke 3 - This is more premium than the ZSEV

I doubt it. The car's design reminds me of the ugly Fiat Multipla. The design will be enough to put most people off MG Cloud compared to the SUV-ish ZS EV.

The best approach to achieve high sales numbers with the MG Cloud is to position it as an urban family friendly electric mini-innova. The practical-minded car buyer it can target is unlikely to pay a huge premium for it. It'll have to sit closer to 15L than 20L. If MG can introduce an adequately equipped base version around 14- 15L, it'll be better. But no cheap looking interiors please - that does not work in India, as repeated mistakes by other carmakers have shown. MG can do a smaller battery pack like 42-45KWH, and keep the larger 50KWH in a long-distance variant.

MG will still need marketing that can somehow make it at least a little bit aspirational. They can attribute the looks to being gifted to planet Earth by ET or Jadoo! May be even do a movie tie-up
