The engine was adapted by SAIC. Remember the Hector is derived from the Baojun which is part of a joint venture with GM. I cannot confirm whether the engine is a specific GM one. The DCT has been developed by SAIC so I understand |

While the Hector looks good and MG is making all the right noise regarding the launch, One thing that I think is missing is the cost of ownership post the sales. What I mean is MG should also advertise the service intervals, basic cost of service estimation and price list of major spare parts. Since they are a new brand, this would also have a positive perception with potential customers and avoid shocks later on. Basic and extended warranty on par or better than competitors would also help the case. |

This is a pleasant surprise, the Cochin dealership has apparently crossed 100 bookings already and I believe test drives have not yet started. Picture source - whatsapp status of MG sales person from the Cochin dealership. |

The high number of interest and bookings is unprecedented for a newcomer, that too selling a car in the 15-20 Lakh bracket. I'd like to say that MG did a lot of things right. In this soft market, they never skimped on money, be it PR or investing in a 'flagship showroom', which is important for brand building and what the other players never do (have never done) in India. In Bangalore they already have two service centres that are coming up this week. MG is really burning a lot of money, and that shows their confidence. This is purely my opinion. |
