OVERVIEW
The MG Windsor EV is a groundbreaking electric compact utility vehicle (CUV) that marked MG Motor’s ambitious entry into India’s evolving electric vehicle (EV) market with its launch in December 2024. Positioned as an intelligent and family-friendly electric SUV, the MG Windsor EV combines style, technology, and practical range capabilities, making it an attractive option for urban and suburban drivers seeking eco-friendly mobility without compromising on comfort or performance.
KEY FEATURES
One of the key highlights of the MG Windsor EV is its dual battery options designed to suit different driving needs. The base variant comes equipped with a 38 kWh battery capacity, delivering a respectable driving range of around 332 kilometers on a single charge. For those requiring longer journeys without frequent stops for charging, MG offers a larger 52.9 kWh battery variant, pushing the range up to an impressive 449 kilometers. This versatility enables users to choose a configuration that best fits their lifestyle, whether for city commuting or longer trips.
Powering the MG Windsor EV is a single electric motor generating 134 bhp and 200 Nm of torque, driving the front wheels. This setup ensures smooth acceleration and efficient energy use, resulting in an engaging yet sustainable driving experience. It supports Level 2 AC charging and fast DC charging that enables the battery to reach 80% capacity in about 50 minutes, significantly reducing downtime during longer trips.
The interior of the MG Windsor EV is a blend of spaciousness and innovation, with features that emphasize comfort and convenience. Rear seats offer an unprecedented 135-degree reclining feature, elevating passenger comfort during long drives. The large panoramic glass roof floods the cabin with natural light, creating an airy and premium ambiance. Technology integration takes center stage with a massive 15.6-inch touchscreen infotainment system, enhanced by MG’s introduction of two new apps — ‘Watch Wellness’ for wellness content and ‘Book My Service’ for hassle-free servicing appointments. The premium cabin is complemented by a nine-speaker Infinity audio system that delivers a rich and immersive sound experience.
Safety and driver assistance technologies are well covered in the MG Windsor EV with an advanced Level 2 ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System). Features like adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and automated emergency braking contribute to a safer and more relaxed driving experience, standing out in the compact EV segment.
MG has also introduced a special Inspire Edition of the Windsor EV, incorporating cosmetic and functional upgrades such as exclusive interior accents, 4K dash cams, and wireless charging enhancements. This edition appeals to tech-savvy customers looking for additional value and exclusivity.
