NEW DELHI: MG Motor drove in India’s least expensive electric car in Comet mini, which has been priced at Rs 8 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) for the entry version, below the Tata’s Rs 8. 7-lakh electric Tiago.
The two-door Comet, which is developed on Wuling Air EV that is sold in markets such as China and Indonesia, will be available in cities such as Pune, Mumbai, Kochi, Hyderabad, and Bangalore, apart from the Delhi-NCR region, in the first phase.
The company will ex-pand its reach and production beyond these cities thereafter. “We are confident on the prospects of the Comet, which will be positioned as a comfortable green car for congested cities,” RajeevChaba, MD of MG Motor India, told TOI.
The Comet has a range of around 230km (will be little lower in city), and comes strapped with a 17. 3KWH lithium-ion battery that can be fully charged in around seven hours.
The British MG, a wholly owned arm of China’s SAIC, has spent around Rs 700 crore for the development of Comet, which is produced at the company’s factory in Halol, Gujarat. Chaba said that MG expects a strong push to the company’s India sales this year on the back of the Comet launch, which carries unconventional looks.
