Which MG Windsor EV variant should you buy?
There are 5 ways to buy a Windsor EV, across 5 trims, from ₹14.70L to ₹19.00L ex-showroom Delhi.
Pound for pound the ladder pays best at Exclusive: ₹1.30L more than Excite, and no rung you pay extra for hands back more kit per rupee.
Above that, the one to think hardest about is Essence. At ₹1.00L over Exclusive it asks the most per feature of anything higher up the range, so take it because you want what it adds, not because it is next.
How this is worked out: every step below compares the cheapest way into one trim with the cheapest way into the next, then weighs what the money buys against what it costs. No opinion is added on top, and nothing is rounded in a trim's favour. Read the full method.
What each step up actually buys
Walk the range from the bottom. Every rung shows the money and the kit, in both directions.
Excite to Exclusive
+₹1.30L (from ₹16.00L)
Best value of the rungs you pay for: no other paid step hands back more kit per rupee.
- Rear parking camera
- 360° camera
- SOS emergency call (E-call / B-call)
- Wheel size17" → 18"
- Wheel typeSteel → Alloy
- Touchscreen10.1" → 15.6"
- and 8 more
Exclusive to Essence
+₹1.00L (from ₹17.00L)
The dearest step above that one for what it adds. Worth it only if you want this kit specifically.
- Speakers6 → 9
- JBL system with Dolby Atmos
- SunroofSingle-pane
- Ventilated front seats
- Ambient lighting
Essence to Exclusive Pro
+₹0.90L (from ₹17.90L)
No extra equipment: this step is about the Electric powertrain it opens up rather than the kit it adds.
Worth knowing: this step gives up single-pane sunroof, ventilated front seats and ambient lighting.
Exclusive Pro to Essence Pro
+₹1.10L (from ₹19.00L)
- ADASLevel 2 (core suite)
- Vehicle-to-load (V2L)
- SunroofSingle-pane
- Ventilated front seats
- Ambient lighting
Not every rung here is a straight upgrade. One hands back more equipment than it adds, so it is shown in full but left out of the value ranking rather than dressed up as a step up.
Where the kit that matters lands
- Airbags: all 6 are standard from the base Excite, so nobody has to spend up for them.
- Safety kit: Essence Pro, from ₹19.00L, is the cheapest trim with every safety feature this car offers at its best. Spending past it buys comfort and cosmetics, not protection.
- Automatic: the cheapest is the Excite Electric AT at ₹14.70L. See it
Then there is the engine
Picking the trim is only half of it. The Windsor EV is sold with 2 powertrains, and the cheapest way into each is a different amount of money.
| Engine | Cheapest way in | Gearbox | Official figure |
|---|---|---|---|
| Electric136 PS | Excite₹14.70L | single-speed automatic | 332 km |
| Electric136 PS | Exclusive Pro₹17.90L | single-speed automatic | 449 km |
