MG Motors just reopened the bookings for the Hector two weeks back and now it has already received more than 8000 bookings for the big-size SUV.
The bookings for MG Hector were closed in July itself, due to the increasing demand and waiting period. If you bought the MG Hector in July, the deliveries were likely to happen in the late months of 2019 or early 2020.
To ease up on the waiting period, MG stopped the bookings for Hector across all dealerships. The bookings were now opened on 1st October and the figures have already crossed above 8000 units.

The prices are effective from September 25th and people who have booked after the reopening will be seeing the new prices. However, even with these prices, it is one of the most affordable and longest in its segment.
Variant-wise, the Petrol-AT and the Diesel-MT on the top-spec Smart and Sharp are the best-selling. Since the engines are not BS-6 compliant, the prices of Hector will see an increase again, by a considerable margin.
Hector is available in three engine options – a Petrol, Petrol Smart-Hybrid and Diesel engine. The 1.5 Litre petrol engine is a turbocharged unit, producing 143 BHP and 250 Nm of peak torque. The 2.0 Litre turbo-diesel engine produces 170 BHP and 350 Nm of peak torque.
