MG Comet EV, Windsor EV, Hector, and More to Become Expensive by up to 2% from January

The new year is about to begin, and with it comes a price hike for many popular cars in India. MG has revealed that both its electric and internal combustion engine models, including the Comet, Hector, and Cyberster, are set to become costlier by up to 2%. While the company has not yet disclosed the exact model-wise increase, it is expected to be announced soon.

The surge in prices is attributed to rising input costs and broader macroeconomic pressures, such as inflation and supply chain disruptions. For buyers, the upcoming MG price hike may lead to larger budgets for planned purchases, possible postponements of new-car purchases, and a greater tendency to explore alternative brands or used cars. Dealers, in turn, could face shifts in demand, affecting their sales projections for the initial months of the year.

MG Price Hike 2026: Which Models Will Be Affected?

MG currently offers nine models in India, including popular electric vehicles like the Windsor EV and Comet, as well as petrol and diesel SUVs such as the Hector, Hector Plus,  and Astor. Among these, the Windsor EV and Hector stand out as the most popular choices, enjoying strong demand in both the EV and traditional segments. With the upcoming price hike of up to 2%, buyers may need to rethink their budgets, potentially delaying purchases.

MG Hector Facelift

MG recently launched the 2025 Hector and Hector Plus facelifts in India, priced between Rs 11.99 lakh and Rs 19.49 lakh (ex-showroom). Both SUVs see noticeable updates, including refreshed styling and updated colour options. While MG has not confirmed whether the newly launched facelift will also come with a price revision, the changes aim to keep the models competitive.
