About the MG MG4
The MG4 was the car that made a well-equipped EV affordable for a huge number of buyers - rear-wheel drive, sharp chassis, and a range that suits real life. It is also a UK top-ten seller.
Where to mount a tracking phone in the MG4
- Under the boot floor - practical and hidden.
- Under the rear bench - flat and dry.
- Centre console - near USB power.
- Power - USB or 12 V.
- Signal - glass areas pass GPS; avoid metal frames.
Private by design - no manufacturer cloud, no foreign servers
Modern cars are permanently connected: the maker's own app knows where your car is and routes that data through its cloud, very often on the other side of the world. Our approach is the opposite. Tracking runs entirely on a phone you own, and your location history lives in your own SpySat account. We do not pass it to the car maker's servers and we do not send it to any foreign data centre. You decide who can see where your car is.
