The interior also sports a dual-screen setup, combining the driver’s display and infotainment system, which supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, enhancing its connectivity features. The unconventional two-spoke steering wheel is integrated with media controls, adding to its modern appeal.
Driving Experience and Performance

Under the hood—or floorboard, to be precise—the Comet EV is powered by a 17.3 kWh battery, offering a decent city driving range that suits daily commutes and urban errands. With three driving modes: Eco, Normal, and Sport, the Comet EV adjusts to varying driving conditions, providing a tailored driving experience. Its 41bhp electric motor is surprisingly adept at handling steep inclines, and the regenerative braking system is refined, allowing for a smooth drive.
Utility and Comfort
Despite its compact size, the MG Comet EV doesn't skimp on comfort. It offers features like dual-zone climate control, ventilated seats, and a premium sound system, typically found in larger, more expensive vehicles. However, the car's two-door configuration might pose a challenge for some, especially when accessing the rear seats.
Safety and Technology
Safety in the Comet EV is addressed with dual airbags, ABS with EBD, and a comprehensive suite of parking aids, including rear sensors and a camera. However, potential buyers should note that it hasn't undergone crash testing yet, which could be a concern for safety-conscious consumers.
Conclusion: Is the MG Comet EV Right for You?

The MG Comet EV stands out for its bold design and smart features but remains a niche offering due to its size and design choices. It's ideal for those looking for a compact, stylish, and environmentally friendly vehicle for city driving. With a competitive price range of Rs. 7.52 to 9.85 Lakh (on-road, Bangalore), it positions itself as an attractive option for urban electric mobility.
As we edge closer to its launch, the MG Comet EV promises to be a game-changer for city dwellers looking for an electric vehicle that combines style, efficiency, and advanced technology. Stay tuned to EVFY for more updates on this exciting addition to the electric vehicle market.
