Which MG Comet EV is the base model, and what does it cost?

The Executive, from ₹7.90L ex-showroom, is where the Comet EV range starts. Features you get even here: 2 airbags. What you give up against the top Exclusive: no electronic stability control, no all-wheel disc brakes and no rear parking camera, and 9 more.

Which MG Comet EV is the top model, and what does it cost?

The Exclusive tops the range at ₹9.90L to ₹10.17L ex-showroom. Over the base Executive it adds electronic stability control, all-wheel disc brakes and rear parking camera, and 9 more.

What do the MG Comet EV trim names mean?

A trim is a level of equipment, and MG uses 3 names for them on the Comet EV: in its own order they run Executive, Excite and Exclusive. The name is not the car, though: Excite alone covers 2 variants, differing in battery rather than in equipment, so the trim you settle on still leaves you a choice. Between them the 5 variants cost ₹7.90L to ₹10.17L, ex-showroom.

What fuel does the MG Comet EV run on?

Every one of the 5 Comet EV variants on sale is an electric, from ₹7.90L for the Executive Electric AT, ex-showroom.

What is the MG Comet EV range?

The maker prints 230 km for the 17.3 kWh Electric and 230 km for the 17.4 kWh Electric Fast Charge (ARAI).

Which cars does the MG Comet EV compete with?

₹8,01,657 to ₹11,45,612 on the road

Where that range comes from

Every price in the table is ex-showroom, the figure before road tax, registration and the rest of it. Road tax is set by the state you register in rather than by the maker, so what you actually hand over moves with where you live.

The two ends of that range differ in two ways at once: the bottom is the cheapest variant in the state that taxes it least, and the top is the dearest variant in the state that taxes it most.

Hold the variant still and only the geography moves: the Executive Electric AT comes to ₹8,01,657 in Aizawl and ₹8,84,607 in Patna, a difference of ₹82,950 on the identical car. Of the 17 states we can price it in, 8 of them are level at the lowest, and Bihar comes out highest. You register where you live, so read that as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as somewhere cheaper to buy.

Comprehensive own-damage cover sits on top of all of it. That has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer and your no-claim bonus, so budget for it from real quotes rather than from any number here.

What owners and testers say

Independent evidence only. Never the maker’s own marketing.

+ Build quality that surprises owners, with no rattles or squeaks reported even after rough roads+ Effortless in traffic: light steering, a tiny turning circle and one-pedal driving+ Running and servicing cost very little, because an EV this simple has almost nothing to service− No crash-test rating from any programme, so its safety is genuinely unknown rather than merely modest− The infotainment screen has gone blank on more than one owner's car− Real-world range lands short of the 230 km claim, at 170 to 185 km in normal use

4 more things owners and testers say

+ Owners typically see 170 to 185 km on a charge, enough for a week of city commuting+ One car past 50,000 km with the battery still doing its job− Two doors and four seats with almost no boot, so it only works as a second car or a city-only first one− Owners advise buying the extended warranty rather than relying on the standard cover

Why there is no overall score

Scores are our reading of published, independent evidence, not the manufacturer's, and we deliberately publish no single overall rating: a car can be excellent on safety and weak on resale, and one number would hide that. How we score, and how makers can respond.
