The MG Hector was launched four years ago, and since then it has firmly established itself as a great option for someone looking for a city SUV. More than 1 lakh units have been sold, and MG has decided to inject fresh life into the platform by way of a mid-cycle facelift. We spent an afternoon with MG's latest to report on what these new changes mean for a prospective buyer.
As soon as you lay eyes on the new Hector, you will notice that MG has upsized the grille substantially. Despite its size, the grille works well and adds a lot more road presence to what was already a substantial-looking SUV. The grille now also gets diamond-pattern elements (in chrome, of course). The headlights retain the split setup with the DRLs at the top and the main headlamps nestled in the bumper. MG has practically left the profile untouched with even the 18-inch diamond cut alloys carried forward to the 2023 model. At the rear, the biggest change is that the taillamps are now connected by an LED strip. 'Hector' is spelled out in supersized font and, thankfully, the 'Internet Inside' badge has been replaced by a new ADAS badge. This time around, the SUV can be had in a new shade of brown as well.
