The prices of all variants of the MG Comet EV have been revealed today as the top-end variant costs Rs. 9.98 lakh (ex-showroom)
Just over a week ago, MG Motor India announced the price of the entry-level Comet EV in the domestic market and now the prices of the other two variants have been revealed. While the base Pace variant costs Rs. 7.98 lakh (ex-showroom), the mid-spec Play and top-end Plush are priced at Rs. 9.28 lakh and Rs. 9.98 lakh respectively (ex-showroom).
The range-topping model is Rs. 2 lakh costlier than the base trim and for that it gets a host of new features. Some of the highlights are a grey-finished interior, an all-digital 26.04 cm embedded LCD screen, power adjustable wing mirrors, smart start system, a digital key with Bluetooth tech, reverse parking camera and sensors, etc.
Customers choosing this particular variant will also get the latest iSmart technology with more than 55 in-car connected features, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility and floating twin 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system arranged side by side. The Play mid-level trim is equipped with all the features found in the Plush barring a few.
