    How do Hector Plus prices now compare with rivals’?

    In terms of the competition, the Hector Plus’ closest rival is the diesel-only Mahindra XUV500 (Rs 13.23-17.73 lakh*). The only other 3-row SUV currently in the segment is more affordable than the diesel Hector Plus. The current model is set to be replaced by an all-new XUV500, next year. Upcoming rivals to the 6-seat MG SUV include the 7-seat version of the new Hyundai Creta, which is expected to arrive in the second-half of 2021, and the Tata Gravitas.
