MG has confirmed that it will launch the Hector Plus by towards the end of this year, in Q3. It will come in as a 7-seater as well as a 6-seater.

MG has now revealed the launch plans of the Hector Plus. It was unveiled at the Auto Expo 2020, but its details have not been revealed. While we were expecting it to be launched a month or two after the Expo, it’s launch will happen by November-December period.

MG Hector Plus 6-seater gets individual captain seats on the second row and a bench on the third. The 7-seater, which was not showcased at the Auto Expo, will get a bench for the second row as well. The dimensions have been altered slightly but the wheelbase remains the same.

It gets some cosmetic upgrades as well, to differentiate it from Hector. There’s a completely new front portion with slightly revised bumpers and chrome detailing. At the back as well, there are minor changes made to the bumper.
