1 Pricing, booking, and test drives:

The MG Windsor EV has been listed at an introductory price of 9.99 lakh, ex-showroom. However, there is a catch. With this offer, MG is offering a battery rental service, where will have to pay 3.5 per km for the battery pack. The Battery as Service programme allows the Windsor’s initial acquisition price to be set low. 

The full price list and ex-showroom pricing have not been revealed as of yet. Interested customers can make their way to showrooms for test drives from September 25, 2024, and the CUV will be available for booking from October 3. Deliveries are projected to start from October 12. 

2 Design:

The MG Windsor EV is essentially a rebadged version of the Wuling Cloud EV. It features a crossover design. With this bodystyle, the car aims to blend the comfort of a sedan with the spaciousness of an SUV. The Windsor’s design incorporates sleek LED DRLs which are connected to each other with an LED strip running across the front fascia. The car further gets an illuminated brand logo, LED head and tail lamps, and flush-fitting door handles. The Windsor rides on 18-inch diamond-cut alloys. 

3 Interior:

The Windsor EV brings what MG gets sofa-like seats wrapped in bubble-style leather and these feature a 135-degree recline. The driver gets a six-way adjustable seat, while the front passenger gets a four-way adjustable one. The interior further features rear AC vents and a panoramic sunroof. While the Windsor already features a cargo space of 604 litres, it can be further expanded with the rear seats being able to fold down flat.

4 Powertrain:

The electric motor in the MG Windsor makes 134 bhp of peak power and 200 Nm of maximum torque. With the available 38 kWh battery pack, the Windsor is able to 331 km on a single charge. A 3.3 kW charger completely replenishes the car in 15 hours, and a 7.4 kW charger cuts that time down by half. A fast charger can charge the Windsor from zero to 80 per cent in under an hour.

5 Safety and tech:

MG has fitted in a massive 15.6-inch floating touchscreen command hub with a range of connectivity options, and the driver gets a digital instrument cluster as well. Further convenience features include an electronic tailgate, ambient interior lighting, and steering mounted media controls. The Windsor’s safety tech includes Level-2 ADAS suite of features. The car gets a 360-degree surround view camera alongside an ESP, TPMs, ISOFIX mounts, rain-sensing wipers, and auto-dimming IRVMs.
