The Air EV is expected to arrive in India later as MG’s first mass-market EV.

Wuling has deployed 300 units of the Air EV in Bali for the G20 Summit in November.

Rumour: MG Air EV could be unveiled on January 5

MG plans to unveil a new model in India on January 5, 2023. Reports suggest that it could be the much-anticipated mass-market EV. It has also been reported that MG might launch the Hector facelift on the same day.

MG’s second all-electric car for India will be based on the Wuling Air EV. It’s a 2-door, 4-seater vehicle that is expected to cost slightly more than the Tata Tiago EV.

The Air EV has a modern interior with twin 10.25-inch screens and a 2-spoke steering wheel. The seats have integrated headrests. While there is a pair of seats in the rear, the car only has two doors.

The MG small EV is likely to be powered by a 39 BHP electric motor and a 20-25 kWh battery pack offering around 150 km of range.

Its Cute, Its adorable, Its a Practical City car. But if the rate is more than Tiago takes it to different level. I would not even go to the showroom to see it if it is launched above 10L.

Re: MG Air electric car spied testing in India (page 3)

This car is all about foot print and looks and quality. Its like the SMART. I always felt Nano as a missed opportunity just because of "CHEAPEST CAR IN THE WORLD". An Electric avatar of NANO with high quality interiors can be a fab option for the city commuting.

Re: MG Air electric car spied testing in India (page 3)

I hope this car is able to fill the gap left by the e2o. Nothing beats the versatility and navigation capability of the form factor in the city. It was just about the same size as an auto-rickshaw tempo. The e2o had a laundry list of failure points though. Hoping that this car fixes those. The Tiago is a lucrative option as well.

Re: MG Air electric car spied testing in India (page 3)

Badly looking forward for this. My FIL has stopped riding scooter, and Drives hi Dzire all around Mysore. The old Dzire with its Puny 165/85 tyres is a beast to handle, nothing short of a Lorry. He badly needs a City runabout.
Please prize this right. 10+ Lakhs will drive even the purist Electric lovers away.

The two-door electric vehicle has now been spotted in the country for the first time and expected to showcase the compact EV at the upcoming Auto Expo 2023.
It will be their entry-level product for the Indian market.

MG Motor is expected to price it around Rs. 10 lakhs (ex-showroom).

It will be targeted for buyers looking for a city runabout urban electric vehicle. It might get popular in the commercial segment as well.

Re: MG Air electric car spied testing in India (page 3)

Not sure what is taking Maruti so long to debut the Wagor R electric !

With specs close to this in a more practical form, Wagon EV-R could be a great city car. In India we want better value for money since lifestyle like vehicles dont make much sense to us.

Re: MG Air electric car spied testing in India (page 3)

I was always a fan of the lovely little Mercedes Smart cars and thought it, or something like it, was a wonderfully practical solution for cities in India, notwithstanding the social status aspect of cars in our context. I do believe the market and the audience has matured and, if correctly priced, there will be enough urban takers for something like this. Rather sweet design. And as Hector Plus owners, who can only say very good things about the MG ASS experience, I think this would be an excellent choice.

Whether it is going to be the production name of the MG Air City EV or a different car altogether, it will be confirmed at the upcoming 2023 Auto Expo next week.
