JSW MG Motor India has introduced the updated 2025 MG Comet EV to the Indian market, bringing revised variants and additional features. Customers can place their bookings either online or at authorized dealerships, with deliveries expected to commence soon. The starting price for the electric vehicle is Rs 4.99 lakh (ex-showroom), with an innovative Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) option priced at Rs 2.5 per kilometer. This subscription model allows buyers to purchase the car separately from the battery, significantly reducing the initial cost. Instead of owning the battery outright, users pay a per-kilometer fee for its usage.
Variants and Feature Upgrades
The latest Comet EV is available in five trims: Executive, Excite, Excite Fast Charge, Exclusive, and Exclusive Fast Charge. The Excite and Excite Fast Charge variants now come equipped with a rear parking camera and power-folding ORVMs. Meanwhile, the Exclusive and Exclusive Fast Charge models feature leatherette seats and a four-speaker audio system.
Notable features in the 2025 MG Comet EV include dual 10.25-inch screens for infotainment and digital instrumentation, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, connected car technology, manual air conditioning, a rotary drive selector, keyless entry, and steering-mounted controls. The vehicle also boasts over 55 connected car features for enhanced convenience.
Safety and Performance
In terms of safety, the Comet EV is well-equipped with ABS, EBD, a tyre pressure monitoring system, reverse camera and sensors, dual front airbags, electronic parking brake, electronic stability control (ESC), ISOFIX child seat mounts, all four disc brakes, and hill-hold assist.
Under the hood, the EV features a 17.3 kWh battery pack paired with a single electric motor, delivering 42 hp and 110 Nm of torque to the rear wheels. The battery, which is IP67-rated for water and dust resistance, offers an ARAI-certified range of 230 km.
Comet Blackstorm Edition and Warranty Details
Alongside the standard model, MG has also introduced the Comet Blackstorm edition, priced from Rs 7.80 lakh with BaaS. This special edition sports a Starry Black exterior with dark chrome elements, black badges, and red accents. Inside, it features leatherette seats with Blackstorm embroidery.
The 2025 Comet EV is covered under the MG e-Shield program, which includes a 3-year or 1 lakh km vehicle warranty, 3 years of roadside assistance, and three complimentary labor services for scheduled maintenance. Additionally, the battery pack is backed by an 8-year or 1.2 lakh km warranty, ensuring long-term reliability for owners.
