As a result of their current outspokenness over sustainability, a number of celebrities support the use of electric cars (EVs). But only a select few—among them Suniel Shetty—walk the walk. The seasoned actor just acquired an MG Comet EV for his garage, which is his first electric vehicle.

After the ZS EV, the battery-powered tallboy hatch was introduced to the Indian market earlier this year, making it MG’s second EV there. Pace, Play, and Plush are its three available varieties, and their costs range from Rs 7.98 lakh to Rs 10.63 lakh (ex-showroom).
The actor posted a picture of his new item on social media and posed for a picture with the MG Comet EV. The description for the photo said, “My first EV, “The MG Comet”…love it!” The top-spec Plush variety, draped in a Starry Black tint, is what the Hera Pheri actor has chosen.Â
