The MG Hector was first launched in 2019, marking the entry of China's SAIC-owned British brand in India. The Hector was one of the first SUVs to come with a fully connected car technology in the SUV space, and soon became a popular choice among SUV buyers in the Indian market. MG introduced the Hector facelift in the country earlier this year with some cosmetic changes and a bunch of new and updated features. The Super trim was offered with a choice of petrol and diesel engines mated only to a 6-speed manual transmission.
