In the competitive world of SUVs, finding the perfect balance between technological innovation, road presence, and family comfort is a challenge. Enter the MGHectorPlus. Building on the massive success of the standard 5-seater Hector, the "Plus" variant isn’t just about adding an extra row of seats—it is about elevating the entire experience of shared travel.
Here is why the MG Hector Plus is turning heads and winning driveways.
The "Plus" Factor: Captain Seats and Comfort
The defining feature of this SUV is versatility. Available in both 6-seater and 7-seater configurations, it caters to different family needs. The 6-seater variant is the showstopper, featuring luxurious CaptainSeats in the middle row. These slide, recline, and offer individual armrests, turning the rear cabin into a chauffeur-driven experience.
For larger families, the 7-seater bench configuration ensures no one is left behind. Combined with the massive PanoramicSunroof, the cabin feels airy, premium, and distinctively upscale with its smoked sepia brown leather upholstery.
Tech That Talks Back
MG has always marketed itself as a tech-forward brand, and the Hector Plus is no exception. At the heart of the dashboard lies a massive infotainment interface (up to 14 inches in the facelift models). Powered by the i-SMART technology, the car offers over 75 connected features.
From remote engine start to voice commands that understand Indian accents ("Hello MG, open the sunroof"), this is truly a ConnectedCar. The integration of apps like JioSaavn and MapMyIndia ensures you are always entertained and on the right track.
Safety First with ADAS
Modern driving demands modern safety. The Hector Plus steps up with its Level 2 Autonomous Level 2 ADAS (AdvancedDriverAssistanceSystems). Features like Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keep Assist, and Automatic Emergency Braking provide an extra layer of security for highway driving.
Coupled with a 360-degree camera system, parking this large SUV in tight city spots becomes surprisingly effortless.
Performance and Drive
Under the hood, the Hector Plus offers choices that suit different driving styles. Whether you opt for the punchy 1.5L Turbo Petrol (with CVT or Manual) or the torque-heavy 2.0L Diesel, the car delivers a planted and smooth ride. It swallows bumps effectively, making it an ideal FamilyCar for long road trips.
The Verdict
The MG Hector Plus is more than just a stretched Hector. It is a value-proposition that challenges cars a segment above it. With its imposing chrome grille, intelligent features, and a cabin designed for comfort, it is the perfect upgrade for the urban family.
