EV charging for MG in the Philippines
MG has made EVs more affordable in the Philippines with the MG4 hatchback and the ZS EV crossover. Both use Type 2 for AC charging and CCS2 for DC fast charging — the mainstream Philippine standards — so charging at home or at any CCS2 public station is straightforward.
What connector does a MG use?
MG models in the Philippines (MG4, ZS EV) use these plugs:
Type2 (AC)
the standard AC plug for everyday and overnight charging — what most home and mall wall-boxes in the Philippines use.
CCS2 (DC)
the DC fast-charging standard for the Philippines, found at most public fast chargers for quick top-ups on the road.
Where to charge your MG
With Type2 (AC) + CCS2 (DC), your MG can charge almost anywhere EVs charge in the Philippines — at home, while you shop, and on the road. EVChargePH lets you see live availability and reserve a slot before you drive.
At home
Plug into a Type 2 wall-box overnight at the ~₱11–₱13/kWh home rate — the cheapest and most convenient way to charge.
At malls & offices
Top up while you shop, dine or work. Many Metro Manila and Cebu mall garages now host EV chargers.
On the road
Use public DC fast chargers along major routes for a quick top-up on longer drives across the country.
