MG Hector Petrol Variants Now Compliant with E20!
MG Hector petrol variants now support E20 fuel and limited-time ownership benefits under MG's “Midnight Carnival” campaign.
The MG Hector and MG Hector Plus petrol models now have official approval from India's government for E20 fuel use. This makes them the second MG vehicle after the Astor to meet this required standard. All MG Hector petrol variants made after March 31, 2025, will work with E20 fuel. The company plans to keep prices the same.
Why E20 Fuel?
The E20 fuel is a mixture of 20% ethanol and 80% petrol. This is a greener, more sustainable fuel compared to just fuel. With this upgrade, MG Motors is showing its commitment to cleaner mobility while maintaining the Hector’s strong market presence in the mid-size SUV segment.
The E20-compatible petrol models are now available with both a 6-speed manual transmission and a CVT gearbox, with prices starting at ₹13.99 lakh (ex-showroom).
The MG Hector Overview
There are two engine options with the MG Hector. The 1.5-liter turbo petrol engine makes 141 horsepower and 250 Nm of torque, showcasing exceptional performance. There's also a 2.0-liter diesel option that produces 168 horsepower and 350 Nm of torque, which only comes with a 6-speed manual transmission.
