MG Hector Super

About

The MG Hector is one of the most feature-rich SUVs in its class, boasting a premium design both inside and out. It comes with two engine options a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine producing 143 PS and 250 Nm of torque, and a 2-litre turbocharged diesel engine delivering 170 PS and 350 Nm of torque. Both engines are paired with a 6-speed manual transmission, with the petrol engine also offering a CVT automatic gearbox. The SUV is loaded with features like a 14-inch touchscreen system, ventilated front seats, a panoramic sunroof, and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) including lane departure warning, lane keep assist, and autonomous emergency braking. With its spacious cabin, comfortable ride quality, and ample boot space of up to 580 litres, the MG Hector is well-suited for both family use and long road trips. However, it lacks a mild-hybrid tech and a diesel-automatic combo, which might be a consideration for some buyers.

Our take on this /// Verdict

The MG Hector is a compelling choice in the SUV segment, offering a blend of premium design, spacious interiors, and advanced features. While it excels in terms of road presence, cabin comfort, and feature list, it does have some drawbacks. The petrol variants low fuel efficiency is a significant concern, especially for city driving, where it manages less than 10 kmpl. However, the diesel variant offers better fuel economy, making it a more practical choice for those prioritizing mileage. The cabins fit and finish, though premium, could be improved, and the touchscreen system, although large and feature-rich, can be unresponsive at times. Despite these issues, the MG Hector remains a strong contender for those seeking a comfortable and feature-packed family SUV, especially if you can overlook the petrol engines mileage woes.

Price

The MG Hector in India is priced competitively, ranging from Rs. 13.99 lakh to Rs. 21.95 lakh (ex-showroom). When you factor in the on-road costs, the prices can go up to around Rs. 17-25 lakh, depending on the variant and location. For instance, the base Hector Style variant starts at Rs. 13.99 lakh ex-showroom, while the top-end Hector Select Pro CVT can cost up to Rs. 21.95 lakh ex-showroom. The on-road prices include additional costs such as RTO fees, insurance, and other charges, which can vary by state. Overall, the MG Hector offers a good balance of features and price, making it a viable option in its segment.

Latest Updates

Wednesday, 25 September 2024 06:48 PM MG has been focusing on launching new variants and special editions, such as the Blackstorm and Snowstorm, rather than reviving older variants like the Super. This approach seems to be working well for them in the Indian market. I believe this strategy keeps the product lineup fresh and appealing.

Friday, 19 April 2024 10:02 PM There are no indications or plans from MG to revive the Super variant. The focus remains on the current and new variants being introduced. I think this is a clear sign that MG is committed to their current product lineup.

Wednesday, 10 April 2024 12:10 PM There have been no recent updates or mentions of the MG Hector Super variant since its discontinuation. MG has been focusing on other variants and special editions like the Blackstorm and Snowstorm. It seems the Super variant is no longer part of their strategy. I think this is a clear indication that MG is moving towards more modern and feature-rich variants.

Friday, 15 March 2024 10:21 AM There has been some market speculation about whether MG might reconsider bringing back the Super variant, but there is no concrete evidence to support this. MGs current strategy seems to be centered around their newer offerings. I think its unlikely well see the Super variant again anytime soon.

Monday, 04 March 2024 06:50 AM The discontinuation of the MG Hector Super variant has not significantly impacted the overall sales of the Hector, as other variants have filled the gap. The introduction of new variants like the Shine and special editions has kept customer interest high. I believe this strategic move has helped MG maintain its market presence.

Tuesday, 28 September 2021 11:36 AM The MG Hector Super variant has been discontinued in India. This decision was made when the new Shine trim was introduced into the line-up in August 2021. The Super variant was one of the earlier trims available for the Hector, but it seems MG has opted to streamline their offerings. I think this move helps in simplifying the variant list and focusing on more popular trims.

Thursday, 12 August 2021 02:41 PM MG Motor India introduced the new Shine variant of the Hector in August 2021, which marked the end of the Super variant. The Shine variant is positioned as a mid-variant, offering more premium features than the lower trims. This change indicates MGs strategy to offer more value to customers through updated variants. I believe this move will attract more buyers looking for a balance between features and price.

Friday, 25 June 2021 12:53 AM Customers who were looking for the Super variant have adapted to the new offerings by MG. The Shine and other variants have been well-received, indicating that the discontinuation of the Super variant was not a major setback for MG. I think this shows the flexibility of MGs customer base.

Sunday, 20 June 2021 08:21 AM Since the discontinuation of the Super variant, MG has seen stable sales performance for the Hector. The introduction of new features and variants has helped in maintaining customer interest. I believe this stability is a positive sign for MGs market strategy.

Tuesday, 15 June 2021 09:36 PM Customers have shown a preference for the newer variants and special editions over the discontinued Super variant. This shift in preference indicates that MGs strategy to update and refresh their lineup is aligned with customer demands. I believe this is a positive sign for MGs future in the Indian market.

Mileage

Tuesday, 19 November 2024 09:22 PM The mileage of the MG Hector is a mixed bag. The petrol variant, powered by a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine, offers less than 10 kmpl in city driving and around 13-14 kmpl on highways, which is relatively low. In contrast, the diesel variant, with its 2-litre turbocharged diesel engine, provides better fuel economy, with users reporting around 12-14 kmpl in city driving and up to 18 kmpl on highways. If mileage is a critical factor for you, the diesel engine is the way to go.
