MG Windsor EV Prices With Battery Pack Will Commence From October 3
MG Motor created a revolution of sorts when the company announced the launch of the Windsor EV in India. This has come at an introductory starting price of Rs 9.99 lakh (ex-showroom). However, this is the price of only the car and the carmaker will offer the battery as a service (BaaS) on a rental basis.

However, now MG Motor has announced prices for the Windsor EV with the battery pack as standard fitment. Prices for the electric CUV starts at Rs 13.50 lakh and goes up to Rs 15.50 lakh (ex-showroom). It will be available in three variants namely— Excite, Exclusive, and Essence.

BaaS models are gaining momentum as a way to lower the upfront cost of EVs for consumers. Another major benefit of renting batteries is that owners are handing over the responsibility of maintaining an EV’s most valuable component to the manufacturer.
