# This electric SUV with a semi-solid-state EV batttery costs under $15,000 in China

SAIC opened pre-orders in China for the new MG 4X, an electric SUV with a semi-solid-state EV battery, priced under $15,000. The new battery tech is set to launch in Europe by the end of 2026.

## The MG 4X is an EV SUV with a semi-solid-state battery

After launching the new MG 4 at the Chengdu Auto Show last year, or “the world’s first mass-produced semi-solid-state” EV, SAIC is following it up with the MG 4X.

The 4X was unveiled in March as the first electric SUV to join the new MG 4 lineup. SAIC said all versions, even the entry-level model, will offer high-end features including a semi-solid-state EV battery, rear-wheel drive, a five-link independent suspension, and more.

Blind pre-orders opened on May 11, with a starting price of just 99,800 yuan ($14,700). While SAIC has yet to reveal full details, China’s MIIT batch of new energy vehicle filings revealed it will be available with two battery sizes.
