Rs 38,000
Heading over to the Hector s extended siblings, the petrol and petrol-hybrid variants in both 6-seater and 7-seater configurations are dearer by Rs 28,000. Diesel variants of both seating layouts have received the highest price increment at Rs 38,000.
Both the MG Hector and Hector Plus are powered by a 170PS/350Nm 2.0-litre turbo-diesel engine and a 143PS/250Nm 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine with the option of a 48v mild-hybrid system. Transmission options include a 6-speed manual as standard, with DCT and CVT gearbox options for the petrol motor.
This third price hike for the Hector has led to a difference in pricing that edges close to the Rs 1 lakh mark when compared to the December 2020 prices. The Hector takes on the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Tata Harrier and Mahindra XUV500, whereas the Hector Plus has the Tata Safari and the Toyota Innova Crysta for company.
Its Indonesian cousin, the Wuling Almaz, also gets a CVT automatic option.
CVT could be sold alongside the DCT at a more affordable price.
It rivals the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Tata Harrier, and Mahindra XUV500.
As if giving the MG Hector SUV a mid-life refresh in January wasn’t enough of an update, Morris Garages has more in store. This time, it is updating the SUV with a CVT automatic and will launch it on February 11. Interestingly enough, its Indonesian cousin, the Wuling Almaz, is already equipped with a CVT gearbox, instead of the DCT found in the India-spec Hector.
