JSW MG Motor India has recently launched its crossover utility vehicle (CUV), the MG Windsor EV, in the growing electric passenger vehicle market. This new entry is creating a buzz, especially as it goes head-to-head with Tata Motors’ popular Punch EV, which has so far dominated this segment. The arrival of Windsor is a significant move in the EV landscape of India, where Tata has captured a whopping 85 percent of the market share. With its unique offerings, the MG Windsor is set to challenge the status quo and attract potential customers looking for an electric vehicle.
Pricing and Subscription Plans
The MG Windsor EV comes with three different trim options, starting at a price of Rs 9.99 lakh. One of its standout features is the battery subscription plan, which costs Rs 3.5 per kilometer. On the other hand, the Tata Punch EV is priced between Rs 9.99 lakh and Rs 14.29 lakh (ex-showroom). While both vehicles are competing closely in terms of pricing, it’s important to note that MG has yet to release a full price list, and additional details about their battery subscription plan will also be revealed soon. This information will be vital for potential buyers trying to determine which vehicle offers the best value for their money.
Powertrain and Performance Comparison
When it comes to performance, the MG Windsor EV is equipped with a 38 kWh battery pack that delivers a peak power of 134 bhp and a maximum torque of 200 Nm. This EV boasts a claimed driving range of 331 kilometers on a single charge, making it a solid contender. In comparison, the Tata Punch EV offers two battery options: a 25 kWh pack that produces 80 bhp and a more powerful 35 kWh variant that generates 120 bhp and 190 Nm of torque. The longer-range Punch EV claims an impressive range of 365 kilometers. With such specifications, both vehicles have their strengths, making the decision for buyers a bit more complex as they weigh power, pricing, and range in their choices.
