While the company further claims that positive sentiments are being seen for its entire product range in the country, the focus now is also on the upcoming launch of the Comet EV. This will be MG's second fully-electric model in India but one that is significantly different from the ZS EV in many ways. For starters, it will be a far more affordable product with pricing expected to be around ₹10 lakh. The Comet EV has been spotted on trial runs on Indian roads on several occasions. With a battery pack of 17.3 kWh, the MG Comet EV will be positined as an urban commute option, having a range of up to 250 kms and a top speed of 100 kmph. With a two-door compact design, the EV could be an ideal option on congested Indian roads even if its launch here is being considered as a bit of a gamble by market watchers.
