MG Windsor EV: Variants explained
MG has finally launched the Windsor EV in the Indian market, at an attractive price of ₹9.99 lakh, ex-showroom. This new electric SUV seems to be a good deal for the buyers who are looking for an affordable yet feature-loaded electric vehicle. There is, however, a twist in the way it is being priced: the battery is not included in the base price of the car. Instead, consumers would have to pay a usage charge of ₹3.5 per km, in effect renting the battery. This approach presents an interesting balance between lower initial ownership costs and ongoing battery usage expenses.

The top-spec variant adds only four features on paper, but these additions make a fair deal of difference by way of dialling up the cabin's ambiance and overall refinement.
