15 quick observations after driving the MG Comet EV

With 4 full-sized adults, the car didn't feel bogged down and pulled effortlessly.

BHPian ant_vas recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

Recently my sister was gifted an Apple Green MG Comet on her birthday by my BIL.

I drove it for a couple of kilometres and here are my observations:

  1. The car has amazing pick-up in Normal mode. Sport and Eco are the other 2 modes available.
  2. Doors are huge and heavy. already got a small ding while parking
  3. With 4 full-sized adults, the car didn't feel bogged down and pulled effortlessly.
  4. The headlights are bright and have a good throw
  5. Car seemed stable, as I was able to touch 60 km/h on an empty stretch
  6. No glove box, but enough storage space all around
  7. Comes with Wires and wireless Android Auto. Wireless Android Auto worked seamlessly without any drops or stuttering.
  8. Music system is adequate
  9. Takes around 7 hours to fully charge with the given charger
  10. The USB port provided is under the dashboard and needs a bit of effort to plug the cable in
  11. AC cools the cabin rapidly
  12. Front seats are small and the elbows of the driver and front passenger will certainly keep bumping into each other
  13. Back seat lacks under-thigh support and 2 adults of normal size can sit with their knees up
  14. Comes with an Electronic parking brake, so some space-saving between the front 2 seats.
  15. Boot is non-existent and comes with a tyre inflator in a box as there is no spare wheel

On a side note, the showroom was charging 54K for insurance, we went with Acko, which was some 25K or so
