- The new MG Comet EV is a city car aimed at the new generation. MG says most Indians commute alone and face dense traffic. It aims to solve urban commute troubles with its compact size. The MG Comet EV has a 17.3kWh battery, giving it a claimed range of 230km. The Comet EV has a 3.3kW onboard charger that takes 7 hours to charge from 0-100%. The Comet's power is rated at 41.4bhp and 110Nm - enough for a claimed, limited top speed of 80kmph. MG Comet EV's feature list includes wireless Android Auto & Apple CarPlay, two 10.25-inch displays, 3 USB charging ports, connected car tech, and more. 2023 MG Comet EV is priced from ₹7.98 lakh (ex-showroom). So, does that make it a perfect city car? Our editor Sirish Chandran finds out in this first drive review of the MG Comet EV.

Will you buy MG Comet EV over a Tiago EV? Or an Alto?
comet ev
I’ve an E2O which looks gorgeous compared to this car and meets my city commute purpose !
Tiago EV
Tiago EV for sure
Tiago ev the best compared to this
You are better off with a TATA Tiago EV which is more practical, VFM, fast charging, comfortable rear seat, good boot space, overall better driving dynamic.
12lakhs for mid variant for tiago in Delhi. They are not in the same price bracket bro.
Nicely explained by Sirish Sir
That bag latkau was one of funny one 🤣🤣🤣
Haha! Thank you Aman! We hoped you liked and shared it!
Only enjoyable at chikna roads, which are not available throughout India😢. Everyone is praising this chotu car but you have clearly explained everything. Thanks for your honest review about Comet. All Indian cities ate full of speed breakers. How can anHats off 🙏
Thanks Harvinder. Though, you'd can drive it on our roads, just that you'd have to be extra careful.
Sir I already owns a Astor shevy, will not buy another MG at any cost😅
The small size does help the car in city roads, but other than that its nothing special... a second Car or maybe a 3rd for the family.. Thank you for the Review EvoIndia Team ❤
That's exactly what this would be!
And we hope you liked and shared the video!
After 1300km driving it ..this is very comfy vehicle ..zips around city ..feels very power full while drawing ...feels like seating in big car SUV...visibility is very good...over all very happ with product
Sirish can be the Ken Block of India with the right kind of machine at hand 😅
#Hooligan
Whoa! Big compliment! Thank you Nitish!
Whenever i search for a specific car review, evo’s video doesn’t come up in the search results, I either have to scroll down deep or search specifically for evo.
Just want to let the evo team know…
Such a Chintu Comet ☄️🌠 sounds funny 😂😂😂 and looks very very funny 🤣🤣🤣.
Haha!
Suddenly my Mahindra E2O (and even Reva I owned earlier) looks like ‘a proper good looking car’ !
God ! Why did this car have to look so ‘toyish’ ?
Maybe that's its appeal.
Is this car identical to the Wuling air or have they made any India specific modifications?
What are the things that MG should have Indianised in this car in your opinion Sirish?
I'm from Singapore, and am excited to see the MG Comet with right-hand drive! As the Comet is so small I wonder if it will 'escape' conventional ENCAP testing standards by being classified as a quadricycle like the Citroen Ami and the Bajaj Qute?
The interior has been totally fascinating ,mind blowing stuff
It does look nice.
This is one of the best EV project. I have ever seen. I highly recommend everyone to look over this.
This car of mg is very luxurious with looks and features, its compact people are attracting everyone.
MG has very good aim towards electronic vehicles in making them better
This is surely worth every penny , next level stuff
looking fabulous , and pretty cool features
Everyone has liked the features and stickers of this car very much.
Impressive features
Bahut badhiya batya hai inhone ne car ke bare me
Shukriya Bitu!
Looks so cool 😻
Loved this amazing MG comet brilliant features ✨❤
Looking superb cool❤
What an amazing EV
MG comet one of the marvelous car ever launched ❤
If the suspension is sorted and the price is lessened, I could consider it as a next buy.
Let's hope MG is reading the comments.
The mobility of this car is going to be awesome in traffic areas
I wanna buy this fabulous mg comet. It's looks very beautiful
Comfortable and spacious 👍
Fabulous looks with unique and outstanding features ✨❤
That is pretty cool the features and the style MG ❤
basically a city car which is not good with speed breakers and potholes. Seems ideal for mumbai!!
Not to say it's not good. You'll have to be really gentle over the bumps and dips.
Excellent looks with stunning and marvelous style MG comet ✨❤
MG comet is totally amazing with features and all ❤
What an amazing and powerful vehicle from Mg
Now am reminiscing the pixel concept that was way ahead of its time !!
It definitely was!
Mind blowing features car with unique style MG comet ❤
The interior is next level and classy one
Really amazing to see this EV
Such an great one .. Kudos to the MG ..
MG comet is best and outstanding car ever launched ❤
Ev is the future and mg is proving it right.
The car is looking at a super niche market and with that price tag, it'll find some buyers. Maybe it'll be a lesson learning experience for MG to take notes and come up with a better package when they launch the next car off this platform.
In the end, we just hope it gets the appreciation it needs. This could very well open a new chapter in urban mobility.
@@kostinarain7373 People do have money but not many would spend it on the Comet, especially if they can get a Tiago EV for about a lakh more.
I'd be surprised if they're able to sell more than a few hundred units on a monthly basis.
It is really a car in itself with a lot of great features that everyone is liking.
Amazing EV especially made for metropolitan area
It is really a car with amazing features which is attracting everyone.
Mind blowing interior...worth every penny...🫶🏻🔥
MG comet a brilliant and outstanding features car ever ❤
Super car!! The compact Design is the best thing
They did very well work in this EV
It has an outstanding design
MG comet looks never disappoint me literally amazing ❤
Mind blowing interior in every aspect
Definitely has a good looking interior.
This car is super fantastic with amazing performance
So amazing interior of this comet love this
What do you think of its price, Amit?
MG Did such an amazing job .. they never disappoint us
India is not ready for this yet. For Indians, cars are not just a mode of transport but an Emotion altogether. And this just doesn't feel like a car for the Indian car buyers, that too at 8 lacs +.
Let's hope it gets the love it deserves!
Green revolution, Go Green is a trendy topic these days, a small electric micro EV of sorts should fly off the shelves, right? Reality isn't exactly that simple in an image conscious market like ours. Ours is a very tricky market. Indians or at least Indians on an average want something that their neighbors/colleagues/relatives would envy. This, the Comet, I don't see it doing that. It does not even cry fashion statement. You tell an average Indian outside a metro that you paid over 9.5-10L rupees(on road) for this and laugh is what you'd probably get.
I know the Comet is not built cheaply, and EV system is expensive but styling plays a HUGE role in our country. If I am not wrong, MG/Wuling (or one of their subsidaries) has or atleast is working on a similar EV with SUV styling, Kiwi I think it was. Something like that for 8L (ex-showroom) would have been better choice in my opinion. Then there is the lack of sound deadening materials. Firstly the small size and you being so close to the corners is intimidating enough, the lack of sound insulation only makes it worse. All this is with respect to the price of course. If this was an electric quadracycle with on road price close to 6.5L on road, complaints would obviously be less.
This is where a Tiago EV makes so much more sense to someone like me. For approx 50k more (base Tiago EV), you get a proper hatchback with spacious cabin for 4 adults and a kid and a usable boot, just marginally bigger in dimensions. Range is similar or better. It feels much safer too. You or anyone make disagree with my views, but I'm sure I am not the only one with this thought process.
P.S., MG should consider a stripped down version of the comet, No internet inside, no dual 10.25 inch screen, just a normal speedo, a normal stereo with Bluetooth only, a phone mount so you can use navigation straight off your phone, less expensive fabric seats. May be cheaper halogen lamps? And a friendlier price, that would definitely aid the sales.
Every car brand has a few styling and feature mandates which won't be skipped.
This looks astonishing!
True that!
About squeezing it anywhere and finding tight gaps…. Treo is a good option
Though not many would consider it to be a part of their garage.
@@evoIndia as if Comet would…. I guess E2O too as an option provided M&M is active on it
I'm still not convinced that it can deliver a range of 170-180 kms.
In my opinion, the maximum range that one can achieve from it, is 125-130 kms only, with 2 people on board, in a congested traffic, where the average speed in which the vehicles move is 20 kmph only.
I took the TD again today, and I could only get a milage of 100 kms, with 4 people on board.
Drive mode: Normal, Regen mode: Normal, AC: On, traffic condition: Medium to heavy.
However, I liked all the other aspects of the car, including the look, features, and the driving and ride comfort.
Absolutely Right.. don't get convinced... As comet gives the range of 230kms 😇
170 to 180 nahi ARAI (AUTOMOTIVE RESEARCH ASSOSIATION OF INDIA) NE 230 kms bataya hai bhaai
@@rahulkumaraa534 हम तो ARAI के कहने पर गाड़ी नहि ख़रीदते, देख परख कर ही खरीदते है...
After driving 1300km I say ..180 to 185 km ....with sports modev ON with mild AC...as it's cold in Bangalore ..it's kept quite a practical range what MG claim...
Mobility of this car will be very good in traffic
This is the best performer ev car!
🎉
Thank you Aarav.
It's really a great car, I really like its features.
Compact super cool car
Best car best design
Sirish has made it clear why not to get the car in first 5 mins but still if you did not understand just go buy a tiago EV
Also why spend so much on a city car just go buy a chevrolet BEAT or a honda BRIO way better build quality and much better 1.2 engines
Feel free to reach out to me for sourcing any of these
MG ki cars main luxury hoti hai
Best car in electronics in low budget
It's the most affordable electric car in India.
Hello sir ☺..big fan...what next in Gone but not forgotten?
Here are some suggestions
Opel corsa
Indigo marina
Ford mondeo
Mitsubishi outlander
All iconic cars those! Do stay tuned for the next one Sahil! ;)
@@evoIndia sir i became your huge fan when you did a video 📹 on all the Maruti 800 line up (1983-2014)..ever since I have never missed any of your vlog..I am a Maruti owner and I just love 💘 all the Maruti cars 🚗.
Good looking car
Which colour suits it the best, Akshay?
I guess Tiago EV is more sensible choice if you are looking for a budget EV.
Super 👍🇮🇳🌲
Thank you Ravi!
Is this guy actually saying go faster over speed breakers and drive closer to the car in front?
Why one would pick this over tiago?
Put in 1 lakh more and go for Tiago ev which is a at least a proper car. It should have been priced less than 6 lakh for it to be competitive
Tata Tiago EV really great car performance looks outstanding
We can't wait to drive it extensively!
Reminds me of driving the omni
Haha! Short front end eh?
Huge and wast difference .. Comet Electric vehicle hai n Far Better hai, compare to sahi Cheej se karo
🤣MG aur Maruti ki car ka koi compare nhi hai.. MG bahot aage hai .. comet car hai doosri bekaaar hai 🤪
Less Space Needed, Less Emissions, Big Smiles !!
That's the goal, Rishabh!
If it had slider doors instead of the regular one’s i would have bought it 😊
That could have significantly increased costs.
Two door ke sath comet ka ek smart design hai
Car comfortable honi chaiye, doors kaise hai ye matter nahi karta
Tata Nano EV would rule the market
Here's hoping Tata Motors is working on something.
Good joke 😂
Aisa kuch nhi hone wala
@@Mithunkumar-pb2kk Kyun nahi ho sakta hai uska size perfect EV ke liye bana hai
Tata should bring back Nano as ev
🤞
Nano EV nahi ati ab 😂😂
Nano nahi chali Nano EV kya he chalegi 😂😂
My favourite car 🚗
Are you going to buy it soon, Sandeep?
People are liking the design of car
Well, it does look pretty interesting.
Tata should bring nano . If this comet is considered to be city car,then nano makes more sense.
We hope this ushers in a new segment of urban mobility.
Nano was just a failed experiment 😂
Nano 🤮
MG knew why tata nano failed despite being "most affordable". Comet EV is therefore launched at a higher price giving it an impression of rich people's toy.
This might not be a family's first car. This is more of a second or a third daily driver.
R u ready for this I am ready for this
16:55 Latkoing😂😂
Hahaha!
EV car which is echo friendly
A safer alternative to a bike or a rickshaw, perfect for the urban environment.
And it will keep you fresher as well!
Agreed
Comet Ev is a fantastic urban vehicle
Good direction for a brand like Tata, but the car is the same Nano mistake. After watching your review, i feel it's a really bad car. Also, 12inch wheels, it's not what Indian consumers want. It's not at all desirable
What do you think will make the Comet EV better, Guneet?
Is he reviewing the car or dilli walas driving behavior 😊
golf cart built as a car?
Not really. This is still a proper car made for the urban environment.
@@evoIndia ok then I should test ride this.
This will be an absolute misery in Bangalore.
Why do you think so Utkarsh?
@@evoIndia Our roads are really bad, undulations and Potholes and construction work etc, hey i am sucker for small cars, i am extremely fond of Kei car , Comet for me is more or less defines a Kei car, but going over humps and potholes , nah. WERE is My Zen electric?
For this much money, you can buy a Nano and fit it with a Hayabusa engine.
Haha! That would be a fun project!
@@evoIndia Autocar India already made a video on it 6 years ago 😬
Doesn't have enough space
I’ve taken a test drive it’s spacious
Slow charging
charging speed is still faster than most other EVs
Too expensive
It's worth the price for the features and performance
