Same money, which car?
Take ₹19.49L to both showrooms and you come out with the Hector Plus Sharp Pro at ₹19.10L or the Curvv EV Empowered X Dark at ₹19.49L, the Hector Plus leaving ₹0.39L of that in your pocket.
Our take
The real reason to pay ₹0.39L more for the Curvv EV Empowered X Dark: level 2 (core suite) ADAS, 360° camera and blind spot monitor. The useful extras on top: vehicle-to-load (V2L) and drive modes. At that price, we would stretch.
- Only the MG Hector Plus seats 7, worth knowing if you need the space
- The Curvv EV is electric, so it will be the cheapest of these to run
- Also on the Curvv EV Empowered X Dark: speakers (9 against 8), driver display (10.25" digital against 7" digital), electronic parking brake + auto hold and regenerative braking
- Going to the Curvv EV Empowered X Dark, you give up all-wheel disc brakes, SOS emergency call (E-call / B-call) and touchscreen (14" against 12.3"), which the Hector Plus Sharp Pro keeps
- Choose the MG Hector Plus Sharp Pro if
- You would rather keep the ₹0.39L than pay for kit you will not miss
- Choose the Tata Curvv EV Empowered X Dark if
- Safety kit matters more to you than keeping the money
