Is MG Comet EV actually a practical car for Indian cities?
07 January 2025 08:04
It all depends on your needs. Having lived in Bangalore with horrible traffic, the Comet has been a game changer for me. In a larger car, I can’t squeeze through gaps and find parking spots that would be impossible.

The lack of fast charging is a deal breaker, so I was considering it, but … If I have to take an unforeseen longer trip, what then? For now, I’ll stick with my Tiago EV.
Does the MG Comet's quirky design work in its favour or against it?

I love how the Comet looks! Seeing something different on the road is refreshing. People come up to me every time I park it to ask about it. It’s a great conversation starter.

It’s trying way too hard to be quirky. It's not something I'd like to be seen driving, it looks like a toy car. I wouldn't want to roll up to work in that thing.

At first, I thought it was weird, but it’s grown on me. There's something nice about it, and the small size makes sense for what it's being used for. It also stands out in a sea of cars that look the same.

I think it’s smart marketing, the design is polarizing. People notice it, love it or hate it. If the car delivers on performance, that attention could mean sales.

It's ugly, plain and simple. MG should have followed a more conventional design. It looks like something that a child would draw.

As a designer I like what MG is doing here. They’re making their own norms, making their own identity. Whether you like it or not, you have to say that it is memorable.

It is this quirky design that makes me feel better about driving a small, affordable EV. It's too cool to be just a 'real' car, it looks intentional.
Can the MG Comet find a place in the market among players like Tata Tiago EV?

Comet has its own market but I don't see it competing with the Tiago EV seriously. People trust Tata more in India, they have a much stronger brand.

The Comet can definitely compete, I think. The Tiago is just an electrified version of a regular car, whereas the S1 offers something really different. The Comet's small size is a big plus for city dwellers.

I've driven them both and I'd say they are for different buyers. The Comet is perfect if you want a zippy little urban runabout and the Tiago feels more like a 'real' car. Both have room in the market.

What’s lacking is the fast charging that the Tiago EV has. The result is that it severely limits its practicality for anything beyond short city trips.

For me MG’s after sales service is still a question mark. I have more confidence in long term ownership thanks to Tata’s much larger network.

In fact, it's the Comet's secret weapon: its unique design. The more conventional Tiago doesn’t turn heads and get people talking, whereas this one does. It could compete on that free marketing.

India is a price king, and Comet is overpriced for what it offers. You get much more car for your money with the Tiago EV.
How well does the Astor hold up over the long haul?

I’ve had my Astor for over a year now and it still feels as solid as the day I got it. No rattles, no loose panels. This one is build quality well nailed by MG.

07 January 2025 06:25
It hasn't had as positive an experience as I have. After just 6 months the door seals started making noise, and the infortainment system has frozen a couple of times. The price is not terrible, but for the price I expected better.

It depends, I think, on how you maintain it. I've religiously serviced and after 18 months my Astor still feels like brand new. A little TLC goes a long way.

I can say the Astor definitely feels more premium, coming from a Hyundai. I'm worried about long term durability, though. Can only time tell if it will match the reliability of more established brands?
