MG
Hector Plus will be launched only as a six-seater, in July. Also, dealerships
have begun taking pre-bookings for the MG Hector Plus unofficially.
The Hector Plus was expected to be offered
in 7-seat and 6-seat versions, with the latter featuring captain seats in the
middle row. However, MG has decided to skip the conventional seating
configuration and offer only the more comfort-oriented seating configuration
that accommodates six occupants.
The MG Hector Plus measures 4,720 mm in
length, which means that it is 65 mm longer than the MG Hector. Its width,
height and wheelbase are no different, though. IndianAutosBlog.com understands
that the Hector Plus’ boot space after folding the third-row seats is 530
litres. The Hector Plus, for reference, offers a boot space of 587 litres with
first- and second-row seats up.
MG will differentiate the Hector Plus with
not only an exclusive exterior design and a different seating configuration but
also additional features. The company will offer it with a kick-activated
tailgate, which it will call ‘foot swipe auto tailgate’, third-row AC vents and
Black and Sepia Brown two-tone leather upholstery. Also, there will be a unique
exterior colour option that will likely be the three-row SUV’s communication
colour, called ‘Starry Sky Blue’.
MG plans to launch the Hector Plus in the
first week of July and begin its deliveries in the middle of the same month. We
expect its prices to begin from somewhere between INR 13.00-13.50 lakh
(ex-showroom).
