The MG Comet Blackstorm Edition has officially been introduced in India, priced at ₹7.80 lakh (ex-showroom). This model includes a Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) option, which is charged at ₹2.5 per kilometre. Consequently, the newly launched Comet Blackstorm Edition is ₹30,000 more expensive than the top-tier Exclusive FC variant of the electric vehicle on which it is based. Alternatively, for those wishing to purchase the MG Comet Blackstorm without the BaaS, the total cost will be ₹9.81 lakh (ex-showroom), representing a premium of ₹13,000 over the Exclusive FC trim.

MG has commenced bookings for the Comet Blackstorm Edition at an initial deposit of ₹11,000, with deliveries expected to begin shortly. The MG Comet EV is designed as a compact and practical electric hatchback, ideal for urban commuting. It competes with models such as the Tata Tiago EV.

The introduction of the battery subscription program has positioned it as the most affordable electric vehicle in India, thereby increasing its attractiveness to consumers. With the launch of this special edition, MG aims to enhance its appeal to potential buyers and boost sales figures.

Cosmetically, the Comet EV differs slightly from the standard variant, while the powertrain specifications remain unchanged. It is equipped with a 17.4 kWh battery pack that supports DC fast charging, offering a range of 230 kilometres on a full charge.

For those considering the purchase of the MG Comet Blackstorm Edition, here are some essential details to help determine whether the additional cost of ₹13,000 to ₹30,000 for this special edition is warranted.
