The MG Hector Plus 6-seater will make its debut at the 2020 Auto Expo, followed by its launch. Styling of the three-row version will be slightly different than the Hector 5-seater. The spy pictures reveal that the SUV will get revised front bumper, headlamps in a new housing and new LED DRLs. The rear section will also look different. It will feature newly-designed taillamps, new skid plate and revised rear bumper. According to a latest report, the SUV’s three-row version could be named – MG Hector Plus. With an additional third-row seat, the MG Hector Plus will have more cabin space to offer. The faux brushed aluminum trimming and soft-touch material will distinguish it from the 5-seater Hector. The comfort goodies and connectivity features will be carried over from the standard model. |

“proposed to use its mark Hector Plus with respect to its new passenger car which would be an extension of its existing passenger car by the name of Hector and hence the applied trademark comprises of Hector suffixed with Plus." |
“the mark is identical with or similar to earlier marks (Hector) in respect of identical or similar description of goods or services and because of such identity or similarity there exists a likelihood of confusion on the part of the public |

What's with the twin exhaust tips? Any idea if they are functional? Because if looked closely, it seems the end-can is still only on the LHS like the existing Hector 5 seater & not on the RHS. I hope they aren't doing a jugad of simply running 2 pipes from the same end-can. That would be quite clumsy! This 6 seater will be a massive hit I feel. We Indians love more seats in any footprint of a car! XL6 might see a slight dent with this one I'm guessing. |

Depends upon the pricing and what segment they want to pitch this. The once thing which I fail to understand is their badging of "Internet Inside" - its completely kiddish. :p |

I actually asked the showroom folks to remove the internet inside badging before delivery :D They were unable to comply as they're really not allowed to make changes, even though cosmetic, to the car. |
Leaked from the Auto Expo venue, where it will be making its debut, the 6-seater Hector is called Hector Plus. It comes with changes at the front and rear. The front grille is new with chrome finish, giving it a more premium finish. Updates have also been provided to front and rear bumper, headlights and tail lamps. MG Hector Plus is 40 mm longer than the existing variant. |
Hector Plus comes with customisable seating (2+2+2/2+3+2) configuration, along with revamped interiors and exteriors with new headlamps, front grille, bumpers, rear taillight design, and revised skid front. Speaking about the Auto Expo participation, Rajeev Chaba, President & Managing Director – MG Motor India, said, “As the industry-leading platform for showcasing innovation, Auto Expo 2020 is the perfect stage to highlight MG’s connected, tech-driven, and sustainable vision for the future of mobility.
