MG Confirms Hector Facelift Unveil for December 15 in India

The update signals a JSW-era pivot toward a more premium, tech-led Hector with mechanicals unchanged.

Overview

  • JSW MG Motor India released the first teaser—tagged “It’s been a while. Get ready to be surprised”—confirming the December 15 debut.
  • Media reports and spy shots point to a new grille, tweaked front and rear bumpers, refreshed alloy wheels, and sightings of a test mule wearing green‑net camouflage.
  • A major cabin upgrade is expected, with outlets reporting a faster infotainment system with up to 10GB RAM and likely multi‑gesture controls, plus UI and connected‑tech improvements.
  • Comfort and safety additions such as ventilated seats and expanded ADAS have been reported, while the core interior layout is expected to stay familiar.
  • The 1.5‑litre turbo‑petrol and 2.0‑litre turbo‑diesel with existing gearboxes are expected to continue, with outlets not anticipating a significant price hike in the refreshed lineup.
