MG Windsor EV Measurements
Rebadged as the Windsor EV, the MG Windsor EV is anticipated to be slightly shorter than the MG ZS EV at 4,295 mm in length. But in terms of width (1,850 mm) and height (1,652 mm), it exceeds the ZS EV. Its wheelbase, at 2,700 mm, is noticeably longer than that of the ZS EV, which is 2,585 mm. In pictures, it seems like a big hatchback, but JSW MG Motor India says it’s a crossover.
MG Windsor EV: Cabin and Equipment
The MG Windsor EV’s interior will include two screens: an 8.8-inch digital instrument panel and a 15.6-inch freestanding central touchscreen entertainment system. 360-degree cameras, wireless phone charging, a six-speaker audio system, linked car technology, “Italian bubble-style” leatherette seats with motorized adjustment for the front passengers, a powered tailgate, and a “Sofa mode” recline function that was hinted at a few days ago are all included in the cabin.
MG Windsor EV: Protective Gear
Expected safety features include four airbags, electronic stability control, hill hold aid, disc brakes on all four wheels, and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), which include lane departure warning, autonomous emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and more.
Range, Battery, and Motor of the MG Windsor EV
It is anticipated that the battery utilized in the Cloud, which employs lithium ferrophosphate (LFP) cells and has a capacity of 50.6 kWh, would be carried over to the Windsor EV. It is anticipated to have a range of up to 460 kilometers, just like the ZS EV. A DC fast charger will charge it to 80% in less than 30 minutes, however a standard AC charger will take more than 7 hours to fully charge. 134 horsepower and 200 Nm of torque are produced by a single electric motor that powers the Windsor EV’s front wheels; this is less power than the ZS EV.
MG Windsor EV: Anticipated Cost
In terms of cost, the Windsor EV is projected to launch in September for approximately Rs 15-20 lakh, placing it between the Comet and the ZS EV in India. It will go up against the Tata Nexon EV, which continues to be the best-selling electric passenger car in India.
