MG Hector Gets Major Makeover; New Tech, New Look, Limited Units at ₹11.99 Lakh

Chennai: JSW MG Motor India has launched the All-New MG Hector, introducing a refreshed design language, upgraded technology features and enhanced comfort elements in its popular SUV line-up. The new Hector is priced from ₹11.99 lakh (ex-showroom) for a limited number of units.

The updated model debuts with a more assertive exterior, featuring a new Aura Hex Grille, redesigned Aura Sculpt front and rear bumpers, and Aura Bolt alloy wheels. Two new colour options — Celadon Blue and Pearl White — further elevate its visual appeal.

Premium Interiors With New Themes

The cabin receives a significant upgrade with two new interior themes:

  • Dual Tone Ice Grey for the 5-seater variant
  • Dual Tone Urban Tan for the 6- and 7-seater variants

The interiors are complemented by Hydra Gloss Finish Accents, fabric seat inserts, a Leather Pack for the dashboard and door trims, front ventilated seats, and a 6-way power-adjustable driver seat, enhancing both comfort and sophistication.

Tech-Forward Features With First-in-Segment Additions

The All-New Hector introduces several segment-first technologies, including:

  • Smart Boost technology powering the 14-inch HD portrait touchscreen, the largest in the segment
  • Digital Bluetooth® Key with Key Sharing
  • Predictive Maintenance Alerts
  • Remote AC Control

A 17.78 cm full-digital cluster adds to the modern, intuitive driving experience.

Performance and Safety
