Getting a good, reliable EV within ₹5 lakh indeed was a distant dream, but MG Comet Ev has made it possible. The tiny car is indeed meant for city travel, with some pretty cool features and a decent range to keep your wallet happy. With a modern aesthetic, smart technology, and safety features, it’s an attractive option for someone ready to switch over to electric without blowing their budget.
What Does the mg Comet EV Pack Inside?
Cosmopolitan on Wheels is the only way to describe the Comet EV. It has more than 55 connected car features, which is quite impressive for a subcompact. Functions can be controlled by voice with more than 100 commands. The phone connection is easy via wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. A massive 10.25-inch touchscreen makes everything easy to see and operate, whereas the leather-wrapped steering wheel adds an elaborate finishing touch. They just packed everything into this little car.
How Far Will MG Comet Range
Now, an important thing: the distance. When it comes to driving, the Comet EV boasts a 17.3 kWh battery which offers a range of 230 km on a single full charge, enough for everyday city commutes. The charging process is simple. A 3.3 kW charger can charge the Comet from 0 to 80% within 5.5 hours, while a full charge takes about 7 hours. The automatic transmission is soothing when you are stuck in traffic.
How Much Does It Cost
Things get interesting now. To start with, the MG Comet EV will be offered under the Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) program at an introductory price of ₹4.99 lakh (ex-showroom). The catch, however, is that with this program, after having bought the car, you will be charged ₹2.5 per km for battery usage. It is an alternative way but reduces the burden of the initial price tag. Depending on your commute, you might have to check if this works for your budget.
Rock-Solid Safety
Safety always comes first, and MG hasn’t compromised on the Comet EV in this respect. Safety is ensured through an array of features, including ABS with EBD, electronic stability control, hill-hold assist, electronic parking brake, front and rear disc brakes, and others to give you complete control when the road gets a bit bumpy. It is nice to see safety taken seriously in a small city car like this.
Electric alternatives
Having set their sight on the MG Comet EV, we should mention some other electric contraptions in a similar price bracket. Many of these are surfacing now because the segment is still maturing. So do your homework: hunt for features and details to find the best fit for your driving style and pocket. You may find yet another prized trove matching your parameters.
