The rating won't even matter if Tata places it as an urban runabout only. The convenience of rear doors is an absolute boon. Wonder what's stopping Tata even now... 15kwh battery with tiago's motor, 120-150km range should work, no need to plonk it with gimmicky features as well.

It is definitely a premium offering. Might be primarily brought by well to do families as a second car for city runs/daily commutes. It is definitely expensive for small families or individuals looking for their first or only vehicle 😅. But this is the best car to drive in the city as of now.

Tiago is much much better value proposition at this price range. Looks good, build is good, range is acceptable. I don't know what is the thought process behind designing such a polarizing looks when the competition has far better product. All that money spent in R&D could have been used wisely.
@chaugulepankaj Жыл бұрын
Nice Video. I believe the base version of MG Comet should have been priced at a maximum on-road price of Rs. 6 or 6.5 lakh. The higher-end features such as the touch screen infotainment system and reverse parking camera could have been offered as options only for the top variant. The MG Comet's compact size, limited range, and minimal boot space, combined with a negligible price difference with the Tiago EV, do not justify its price. For individuals from lower and middle-income groups, the price is the most critical factor when purchasing a car. While safety features such as airbags are necessary, compromises can be made on high-end features. For instance, an AUX/Bluetooth music system can be provided instead of a touch screen infotainment system, reverse parking sensors instead of reverse parking cameras, and dashboard controls instead of steering mounted controls. To encourage the majority of Indians to shift towards EVs, it is vital that an EV car is available within their budget range (between 3 to 6 lakh, at which they purchase a used petrol/diesel car) that can perform the basic function of transportation from point A to point B at a minimal running cost (thanks to its EV technology), and includes basic air conditioning and a music system. Given these compromises, MGMotorIndia should have priced the Comet at around Rs. 6.5 lakh on-road. This would have put it in direct competition with internal combustion engine vehicles, and middle-class individuals would have considered purchasing a new EV car within their budget instead of a used petrol/diesel car. This would also enable MG Motors to attract a larger customer base, making Comet as an anchor and even upsell premium cars to some of them. It is worth considering this option as it could prove to be a key to the brand's success.

Thanks for this review. You got it write but most people commenting against this car are probably not understanding the market segment it serves. Right segment for this car is people who 1. Already have a big car like Safari/innova for outstation drives 2. Have place to park 2 cars 3. Have infrastructure to charge electric car. 4. Need a small car for small city commutes like office, dropping kids to school, driving to crowded market. This car is far better than any other car currently sold in India when it comes to 1. Ability to park in tight spaces 2. Drivability on crowded, bumper to bumper city traffic There is truly no competition in current market for comet as its only product in that segment. Tiago EV segment is budget EV, which is different from lifestyle EV segment that comet comes in. If Tata relauches Nano in electric avatar, then it will be competition for comet. MG should provide fast charger and ADAS based city creep mode features and bump price to 10L to remove tag of cheapest EV

This is probably not a very practical car. To be very honest which segment of people in India will buy this car? Ultra Rich won't they have their supercars and luxury ones Rich also won't maybe some of them will buy this as a gadget. Upper middle class - Yes maybe to some extent. As they can afford a secondary city car. Because this car is no way a primary car. Middle Class - most middle class household have 1 car and/or a two wheeler. Those car are all purpose use. Lower middle class - for them it's not a value for money product. Most of the people are two wheeler user or a hatchback. It's might be used as an urban auto or city cab probably. But again lack of bootspace means no airport or station transfers in most cases. 10 Lakhs Auto rickshaw .. not happening.
