MG Windsor EV: Design
The MG Windsor EV has a sleek, understated design with a crossover body type. Despite this, the integrated LED DRLs and LED tail lights at the front and back give it a contemporary appearance. The MG emblem is situated directly below the connected DRL strip in the middle, and the headlights are set within the bumper.
Its wide 18-inch alloy wheels with an aerodynamic design catch your attention right away along the sides, and the charging flap is located on the front left fender. Its flat door handles add even more to its contemporary look.
There are four exterior color possibilities for the Windsor EV: Clay Beige, Pearl White, Starburst Black, and Turquoise green.
MG Windsor EV: BaaS
MG has also unveiled a Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) ownership rental program in conjunction with the Windsor EV’s introduction. Customers will just pay for the crossover’s usage as a result of this, eliminating the upfront cost, and it will become more accessible. The Windsor EV would retail for Rs 3.5 per km, or 40% less than what an ICE (internal combustion engine)-powered car would cost to fuel.
