The model is also expected to undercut the XEV 9S 70 kWh, which is priced at Rs. 26.64 lakh (on-road, Mumbai).

Speaking about this 7-seater SUV, its dimensions closely match those of the XEV 9S. Design-wise, the MG SUV has a boxy, upright stance and an upright tail. The list of features could include a 12.8-inch touchscreen, a digital instrument cluster, a panoramic sunroof, a powered tailgate, ventilated front seats, ADAS, and more.

The JSW MG SUV is expected to be offered with a 69 kWh battery pack, delivering a range of 600 kms. However, it is yet to be determined if MG will offer any other battery pack options for this SUV. Other than that, the Eksion-based SUV will likely sport a front-motor, front-wheel-drive layout, while the XEV 9S has a rear-motor, rear-wheel-drive arrangement.
