2025 MG Hector Review

The mid-size SUV space in India is crowded, competitive, and fast-evolving — but the 2025 MG Hector still manages to stand tall. With a design refresh, feature-rich cabin, and segment-leading connected tech, the Hector proves that evolution isn’t about reinventing, it’s about refining.

Starting at ₹14.25 lakh (ex-showroom), the new Hector brings thoughtful upgrades in design, comfort, safety, and intelligence — all while retaining its reputation as a feature-packed family SUV.

MG hasn’t gone radical with the 2025 Hector’s design — and that’s a good thing. The signature diamond mesh grille, LED blade tail lamps, and 18-inch machined alloy wheels continue to make a strong statement.

Chrome accents are tastefully placed across the bodyline and front/rear skid plates, while new color options like Dune Brown and Starry Black help the Hector look both premium and contemporary. The floating turn indicators and shark-fin antenna complete the look.

Step inside the 2025 Hector and it’s clear that MG is aiming for luxury-like appeal at a mainstream price. The cabin greets you with:

Dual-tone Oak White and Black interiors (select trims)

Ventilated front seats

Brushed metal inserts & leatherette dashboard

Ambient lighting with voice control

Power-adjustable front seats (6-way for driver)

Whether you’re in the 5-seater or 6/7-seater variants, space and comfort remain key USPs. A panoramic sunroof, rear AC vents, and flat-folding second row add to its practicality.
