However, this time, the company is venturing into a new small electric vehicle segment with the Comet.

The MG Comet EV is expected to have a 20 kWh lithium-ion battery pack, which may offer a driving range of around 250 km on a single charge. It will be powered by a single, rear-axle mounted electric motor capable of generating 45 bhp. However, it won’t support DC charging, and it takes about 8.5 hours to charge from 0 to 100 percent using a regular AC charger.

MG Comet will be a one-of-a-kind electric vehicle in the Indian market, and its production has already started. The price of the new Comet is yet to be announced, but it is expected to be priced under Rs 10 lakh, ex-showroom. It will be competing against other popular electric vehicles in India such as the Tata Tiago EV, Citroen eC3, and more.
Summary
In summary, the MG Comet EV is an exciting new addition to the Indian electric vehicle market, with its unique design and impressive features. Its expected price range is also affordable for most Indian customers, and it will compete against some of the most popular electric vehicles currently available in the market. With the Comet, MG Motor India is expanding its presence in the EV segment, and we can expect more innovative products from the company in the future.
