An MG Hector Plus Starry Sky Blue was
spotted in the UK recently. Starry Sky Blue will be the communication colour of
the MG Hector Plus. The MG Hector’s promotional shoot was done in the UK, and
the same is being done for the MG Hector Plus to associate it with the brand’s
homeland. We already know by now that there’s nothing British about the MG
Hector except the brand’s origins, as it’s just a Baojun 530 with a new grille
and different badges. The MG Hector Plus is the India-specific spin-off’s
three-row version.
The MG Hector Plus looks a little more
sophisticated because of the changes on its front and rear fascias. It features
new lights, bumpers and grilles. Its alloy wheels are the same as those of the
MG Hector, though. Inside, there’s a more luxurious appeal to the three-row
version with two captain seats in the middle row and Black and Sepia Brown
two-tone leather upholstery.
IndianAutosBlog.com understands that the
MG Hector Plus is 4,720 mm long, 65 mm longer than the donor model. Its width,
height and wheelbase are the same, though. It won’t be offered in a 7-seat
version. The 6-seat model will feature a kick-activated tailgate and third-row
AC vents in addition to the features of the 5-seat model. The engines and
transmissions available will be the same.
MG will launch the Hector Plus in India in
the first week of July. The company plans to start delivering the new compact
SUV to customers from the middle of the same month and may price it from over
INR 13.00 lakh (ex-showroom).
