One of the most affordable electric cars from MG for India could likely go on sale in April. The recently announced Comet EV will be a mass market two-door electric car, rivalling the likes of Citroen eC3 and Tata Tiago EV. 

The MG Comet EV is essentially the Air EV, which is sold in Indonesia under MG’s sister brand, Wuling. In terms of length, it’s shorter than the Tata Nano, but is, however, wider and taller than the Maruti Alto K10. The entry-level MG EV will allow up to four people to be seated in the cabin.

The micro EV is expected to be a feature-rich offering, with niceties such as two 10.25-inch touchscreens (one each for the infotainment system and driver’s instrumentation), connected car technology, automatic AC, steering-mounted controls, dual front airbags, electronic stability control (ESC) and a rear-view camera. 

In Indonesia, the Air (Comet) EV is offered with 17.3kWh and 26.7kWh battery pack options, which offer up to 200km and 300km of range, respectively. Both batteries feed a 40PS electric motor that powers the rear-wheel drive car. We’re expecting both battery pack choices to be offered with the Comet EV.
