MG Hector digital showroom launched in Bangalore – Video

mg-hector-digital-showroom-first.jpg


There’s now a digital MG Hector digital showroom. And no it’s not a digital experience in parts but in every aspect. There’s no cars on display. The MG Hector digital studio is an embodiment of visual immersive technology. All who step in will experience 360-degree tour of MG Hector and other MG cars.


The digital studio is but obviously smaller than a regular size showroom since there are no cars to be showcased. This one spans 600 sq ft, way smaller than a regular automobile showroom. And welcomes customers in a way that’s without pressure.

MG to launch ZS petrol in India

ImageResizer.ashx?n=http%3a%2f%2fcdni.autocarindia.com%2fExtraImages%2f20200130113808_MGZS-010.jpg


With the launch of the ZS EV and the favourable response to the car, MG has also decided to launch a petrol version of the SUV. The engine in question is a 1.0-litre direct-injection petrol unit that puts out 111hp and 160Nm of torque. Just about enough to give the midsize SUV decent performance, the ZS has a claimed top speed of 180kph and a 0-100kph time of 12.4sec.The engine, however, is said to be quite responsive, with an impressive torque delivery. Also smooth-shifting is the 6-speed automatic gearbox that the car is likely to be specified with when it gets here.

ImageResizer.ashx?n=http%3a%2f%2fcdni.autocarindia.com%2fNews%2fMGZS-019.jpg


The ZS petrol isn’t expected to hit showrooms until early next year, so we could likely get the mildly facelifted version, which will also come with sportier, and better-specified interior. Insiders, in fact, quality levels in the cabin are a bit of a step up, compared to those on the ZS EV.

MG has evolved into a modern, futuristic and innovative brand over the last 95 years.
Correct me if I am wrong but I thought MG which made evocative sports cars in U. K in the 1960's and 70's folded up as a company and the rights to use the MG name was bought by its current owner SAIC. In my opinion MG brand has not evolved over the last 95 years but rather resurrected.
Indian consumers can relate to the purchase of Ambassador brand by Peugeot if that can be compared. However that depends on what Peugeot actually brings out with the Ambassador brand.

MG shortlists Driftly Electric for enabling EV start-up ecosystem under its Developer Program & Grant.

MG shortlists Driftly Electric for enabling EV start-up ecosystem under its Developer Program ...jpg

New Delhi, March 13:
Underlining its commitment to support start-ups and further build the EV ecosystem, MG Motor India today announced that it has shortlisted Driftly Electric, a smart EV charging solutions provider, under its Developer Program & Grant.

As part of its business model, Driftly helps EV owners to find nearby charging points through a multiplatform app. It connects EV users to charging points set up by private individuals. The owners of the charging point can earn revenue as users come to charge their EVs. This helps in easier monetisation for owners of EV charging points, thus bridging a major need-gap in the Indian EV market.

Speaking on the partnership, Rajeev Chaba, President & Managing Director, MG Motor India, said, “The aim behind the MG Developer Program & Grant is to support and accelerate the evolution of the ecosystem of smart mobility in Indian automotive landscape by bringing innovative ideas and solutions to the fore. We are delighted to shortlist and support Driftly, which will help further expand the EV infrastructure in India. Through this grant, we are looking forward to supporting its growth, as it is in sync with our long-term vision of catalysing India’s nascent EV market by creating an end-to-end and well-integrated charging ecosystem.”

Launched in January 2020, Driftly will receive the grant to further expand its services through a peer-based ecosystem approach. Conceptualized by Sneha Roy and Ankur Edkie, Driftly Electric was launched to address the most prominent hurdle to faster EV adoption in India: the lack of a reliable and versatile charging network.

Driftly was shortlisted after thorough evaluation by the jury of the MG Developer Program & Grant. The carmaker received over 300 applications on its website, following which 60 start-ups were chosen for the first round of mentoring by a mentor panel from across all participating members. The company aims to further shortlist more start-ups depending upon the offering for further Grant amounts.

Speaking on the occasion, Sneha Roy, Co-Founder, Driftly Electric, added, “The lack of a reliable and versatile charging network is the most prominent hurdle to faster EV adoption in India. Driftly aims to address this need-gap by adopting a peer-based approach that helps hosts monetise their existing charging points while allowing EV owners to seamlessly discover charging locations close to them. We are delighted that a leading automotive player such as MG Motor India, which has been working towards strengthening the EV ecosystem in the country, has seen potential in our concept.”

Launched in association with Adobe, Cognizant, SAP, Airtel, TomTom, and Unlimit, with TiE Delhi-NCR as the ecosystem partner, the MG Developer Program & Grant is aimed at providing support to innovative concepts in the automotive space.
