From our first drive, we’d established that MG’s two-door, four-seater Comet is an unconventional EV targeting a very specific audience. But with ex-showroom prices ranging between Rs 8 lakh-10 lakh, not only does it need to be a point A to B commuter, but it also needs to deliver on factors such as desirability, technology, performance and value. Plus, there are other electric hatchbacks at this price that the Comet will need to pull buyers from. Can it? We examine the MG Comet EV with a fine-tooth comb and put it through our instrumented tests to find out.
