MG Motor India wants to expand its EV reach and capture segments below the MG ZS and target the low-cost EV space. For that, it is developing a low-cost EV which could be the first under Rs 10 lakh EV in India. (Photo: Somnath Chatterjee)

We might see it at the 2023 Auto Expo with India unveil and the car would be based on the Wuling Air EV. This is a compact EV with two doors and is just 2.9m in length but is styled to have a lot of space despite its compact dimensions. (Photo: Somnath Chatterjee)

The exterior design is quite funky and unique which will help make it stand out. The wheelbase is actually similar to much bigger hatchbacks. (Photo: Somnath Chatterjee)

The interior as shown here is also quite premium and we can expect dual 10.25-inch screens plus an airy cabin along with features like connected car tech. The window switches would be placed at the centre with also being a powered hand brake. (Photo: Somnath Chatterjee)

The Wuling Air is powered by a 40HP front-mounted electric motor with a top speed of 100km/h. The range is 300km and that is again impressive considering its expected competitive pricing. (Photo: Somnath Chatterjee)

MG Motor could also locally source the battery for lowering costs. Currently, the most affordable EV is the Tata Tigor and this will undercut it by a big margin. (Photo: Somnath Chatterjee)

Expect a launch by next year and the question sure remains whether this would be the first mass-market success in terms of EVs. (Photo: Somnath Chatterjee)
