MG Hector Tomahawk EV price & variants

The MG Tomahawk EV is available in Excite, Exclusive and Essence trims. All trims come with a 69.2kWh battery pack, providing a single-charge range of 517km (MIDC rated). The range-starting Excite and mid-spec Exclusive trims are available in just the 7-seater layout, while the top-spec Essence trim offers a choice between 5- and 7-seater layouts.

 

Excite: Right from the range-starting Excite trim, the Hector Tomahawk EV packs a long list of features. These include 18-inch alloy wheels, LED projector headlights, AC vents for all rows, an 8.8-inch driver's display, a 12.8-inch touchscreen, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, six speakers and more. However, it misses out on a couple of passenger comfort features that higher trims offer, so it can be skipped.

 

Exclusive: The mid-spec Exclusive trim is the one we recommend for the MG Hector Tomahawk EV. Compared to the base Excite, it adds front ventilated seats, a 50W wireless charger with cooling and a powered tailgate, features that should appeal to buyers of such an EV. With the BaaS option, the upfront cost can be reduced significantly. Buyers who want the five-seat version will have to choose the top-spec Essence trim, as it is the only one available with this seating configuration.

 

Essence: Compared to the Exclusive trim, the Essence trim adds Level 2 ADAS, a larger 15.6-inch touchscreen, a 10-speaker Infinity sound system, vehicle-to-home (V2H) charging support and much more. Buyers who want the five-seat version will have to choose the top-spec Essence trim, as it is the only one available with this seating configuration. Considering the list of additional features, the Essence trim is priced on the higher side.

  • Cabin and cargo space

  • Easy to drive for its size

  • Well equipped

We don't like

  • Cabin quality could be better

  • Suspension noise

  • Over-reliance on touchscreen

Exterior Design And Engineering

6.0

The Tomahawk EV is larger than the Mahindra XEV 9S in every dimension except width and has 230mm of ground clearance. Its clean, handsome design features a squared-off front, slim LED headlights, chunky cladding and intricate LED tail-lights. However, the 18-inch wheels look slightly small and the overall design lacks the imposing, butch stance of some rivals.

Read More
Interior Space And Comfort

8.0

The Tomahawk EV has a spacious, airy cabin with soft-touch materials and comfortable, wide seats. Its long wheelbase translates into excellent second-row legroom, while the 7-seat version offers reasonable third-row space for shorter journeys. Boot space ranges from 192 litres with all three rows up to 528 litres with the third row folded. Some areas of fit and finish, particularly the centre console, could be better.

Read More
Features And Safety

8.0

The 15.6-inch touchscreen, 8.8-inch digital instrument cluster, 10-speaker Infinity audio system, panoramic sunroof, 256-colour ambient lighting and connected-car tech make the Tomahawk well equipped. The top Essence trim gets Level 2 ADAS, while six airbags, ESP, all-wheel disc brakes and ISOFIX mounts are standard. However, the infotainment system can require navigating through several sub-menus.

Read More
Performance And Refinement

7.0

The 69.2kWh LFP battery powers a front-mounted motor producing 204hp and 310Nm, with a claimed 0-100kph time of 8.2sec. Throttle response is mild initially but becomes more aggressive under hard acceleration, resulting in some torque steer. The motor itself is fairly quiet, although suspension noise is noticeable over rough surfaces.

Read More
Mileage / Range And Efficiency

8.0

MG claims an MIDC range of 517km. In testing, the Tomahawk EV returned 4.85km/kWh over 192km, translating to a real-world range of around 336km. The 7.4kW AC charger takes about 12.5 hours for a 10-100 percent charge, while DC charging at up to 90kW can take the battery from 30-80 percent in around 35 minutes.

Read More
Ride Comfort And Handling

7.0

The Tomahawk EV is a significant improvement over the ICE Hector, with a mature ride that absorbs most road imperfections well. Its light steering, excellent visibility and good body control make it surprisingly easy to drive for its size. However, sharper bumps can expose some firmness and the strong torque delivery through the front wheels can affect steering feel when driven hard.

Read More
Value For Money

8.0

Priced from Rs 19.49 lakh to Rs 23.49 lakh, the Tomahawk EV undercuts similarly specified rivals while offering a large battery, strong performance, a spacious cabin and a comprehensive feature list. Its relatively relaxed driving character and practicality make it well suited to buyers who prioritise comfort and space, although its dynamic polish falls short of some newer EVs.

I am planning to buy my first EV with a budget of around Rs. 25 lakh. Currently driving a Tata Nexon Petrol. I am confused between the MG Hector Tomahawk EV (on-road Rs. 24.7 lakh) and the Mahindra XEV 9e Pack Two 70 kWh (on-road Rs. 26.2 lakh, which may come close to Rs. 25 lakh with festive discounts). I like the Hector Tomahawk EV's minimalist interior and single-screen layout, which feels sufficient for my needs. However, the XEV 9e has much better road presence and looks more premium. I also prefer a clean dashboard over the XEV 9e's triple-screen setup. My priorities are reliability, family comfort, long-term ownership, daily usability, and value for money. I'm based in Hyderabad, and the MG showroom/service centre is very close to my home, which is a plus. Which one would you recommend and why?

It seems like you're leaning towards the MG Hector Tomahawk EV. This MG car is a well-priced three-row, feature-loaded EV. Even though we haven't extensively tested the Tomahawk EV yet, given our past experience with MG offerings, they deliver healthy range and are very easy to drive, with light controls. And having the flexibility of a third row of seats is something you don't get with the Mahindra XEV 9E. On the flip side, the Mahindra XEV 9e Pack Two 70kWh will not only be more efficient, resulting in better real-world range, but it is also nicer to drive, and certainly has stronger road presence. The festive discounts only improve its value quotient. In summary, the Hector Tomahawk EV is a good product, but the XEV 9e is a future-proof and better-engineered EV.

Go for the MG Hector Tomahawk EV, as it seems to fit your brief better. While the Tomahawk EV is a new product, MG has a proven history with EVs in India, with models such as the ZS EV, Comet and Windsor, and more recently the M9 and Cyberster. This includes aftersales and service, with its dealerships well prepared to handle EVs, which should give you peace of mind when it comes to long-term ownership. As you have noted, the Tomahawk EV has a practical cabin and a clean interior without a passenger screen. The fact that the MG showroom and service center are very close to your home is also a significant advantage for long-term ownership and convenience.The Mahindra XEV 9e is a very good product with strong road presence, but the triple-screen setup is something you are not keen on, and it adds complexity that you do not need. It's also more powerful, and though it has the longer range on paper, in real-world use the difference may be less. The MG Hector Tomahawk EV is also better value for money at around Rs 24.7 lakh on-road, and it leaves room in your budget for a higher variant or additional accessories.

Which is the best electric SUV with seven seater capacity under Rs. 25 lakh?

Verified
•23h

Your choice boils down to the MG Hector Tomahawk EV and the Mahindra XEV 9S, both capable, practical and spacious electric SUVs with seven-seat options and prices that start around Rs 25 lakh or below. The Tomahawk EV is well-priced and offers good value, but we think the XEV 9S is the more compelling package, thanks to its stronger performance, superior ride quality and better-appointed cabin.

Is an EV a safe bet as a primary car now as I am considering MG Tomahawk EV. My daily running in city will be around 45 km and will also include quarterly long drive around 600 km. Currently, I am staying in Thane.

Verified

With a daily city run of 45 km and a 600 km trip once a quarter, an EV is a perfectly viable primary car today, provided you have access to home charging in Thane.The MG Hector Tomahawk EV looks well suited to your routine. Its 69.2 kWh battery has a claimed range of 517 km, though real-world range will be lower, so plan on at least one charging stop on a 600 km tripThat’s less convenient than filling up with petrol or diesel, but for a trip you make only once a quarter, it may be a reasonable trade-off for the lower running costs and relaxed everyday driving.

Hi, I'm looking for a new second car, mainly for city use and occasional highway trips, maybe once a month. My top priorities are comfort, space, and a good driving experience. My average daily usage would be around 50 km, mainly for household work. I'm considering an EV for its silent and smooth drive. My shortlisted cars are:Tomahawk EV, VF7, XEV 9S, Sierra EV My budget is Rs. 25-30 lakh.

For a second car doing around 50km a day, mainly in the city, an EV makes a lot of sense, particularly if home charging is available. Among your shortlist, the Tomahawk EV is the best match for your priorities of comfort, space and ease of driving. It has a spacious cabin, light steering and excellent all-round visibility, making it surprisingly easy to manage in traffic despite its size. Its ride is also comfortable overall, although the suspension can be heard working over rough roads.The Tomahawk also has enough range for your occasional highway trips. In our first drive, it returned 4.85km/kWh on a fast highway run, which translates to around 336km of real-world range from its 69.2kWh battery. DC charging is supported at up to 90kW.The XEV 9S is the more sophisticated and performance-focused option, but it is also a more expensive proposition. The VF7 is worth considering if driving enjoyment is more important than outright cabin space.
