Our take on this /// Verdict

The MG Hector Diesel Smart is a compelling option in the SUV segment, particularly for those who value a blend of performance, comfort, and features. From my experience, the Hector stands out with its powerful 2.0-liter Multijet diesel engine, which delivers a smooth and powerful drive, making it ideal for both city and highway driving. The vehicles ride quality is superb, and the gearbox is smooth, although the clutch pedal can be a bit heavy. The interior is modern and high-tech, with a large 10.4-inch infotainment system, panoramic sunroof, and comfortable seating. However, some users have noted issues with the voice command system and the lack of an automatic transmission in the diesel variant. Despite these minor drawbacks, the Hectors overall package of features, performance, and comfort makes it a solid choice for those seeking a premium SUV experience.
