  • It offers many safety features. These include level-2 ADAS with a 360-camera, 6 airbags, all-4 disc brakes, front parking sensors, ESP, hill-hold assist, and a traction control system.

• What could have been better

  • The chrome on the front grille is a bit over, and might not appeal to everyone

  • The touchscreen integrates the AC controls. It takes a bit of effort to control aircon settings while driving.
  • The diesel engine comes with a manual transmission only. There is no option for a diesel automatic variant.
  • ADAS is available in petrol variants only
  • The turbo petrol motor is not much fuel efficient which can be a bummer in city traffic
  • The substantial size of the body accentuates the body roll within the cabin
  • In the Plus variants, the third row is confined and is best suited for children

Big SUV Feel With Flashy Design 8

• The 2023 version of the Hector maintains its existing body shell. However, it introduces alterations to enhance its bold and sporty appearance. The facelift's primary exterior change is a larger, more striking front grille with Chrome adorning the robust U-shaped grille. It seamlessly integrates with the LED daytime running lights. This provides Hector with a commanding road presence. Some may consider this design choice bold. However, it enhances the SUV's overall aesthetics.
• The 2023 update has redesigned the fog light housing. It also added a faux skid plate, infusing a sportier essence. The side profile of the SUV remains unchanged, retaining the same 18-inch alloy wheels.
• Subtle adjustments have been made on the rear. These include a connected tail lamp and new Hector badging at the centre. The new Hector badging is reminiscent of the design seen on the Gloster. The connected tail lamps boast a sporty design termed by MG as 'Blade.' Additionally, the top-end Savvy variant proudly displays ADAS badging on the body.

  Great comfort car with little body roll. But absolute luxury, superb drive experience, and luxury in the car. Highway mileage is good at 15 to 17, but the city is a little low, but with busy traffic, you are still able to get between 9 and 11. The lowest is 8 kmpl on hard braking. 100% recommended if someone is looking to buy.
