Pros and Cons

  • Positives
  • Negatives

Land Rover Defender

  • It's bigger
  • better and easier to live with. Up to date tech. Comfier
  • upmarket interiors.

MG Hector Plus

  • Impressive road presence; this large SUV grabs attention on the road. Spacious and comfortable cabin
  • offering ample room even for six-foot-tall individuals. Abundant features
  • including powered seats
  • front seat ventilation
  • a 14-inch touchscreen
  • and ADAS – feels like a worthwhile investment.

Land Rover Defender

  • Not as cushy a ride as it's other stablemates. Might take the self satisfaction out of off-roading for the hard-core enthusiast.

MG Hector Plus

  • Lack of a diesel-automatic option
  • which might not suit buyers with high running. Petrol engine isn't particularly fuel-efficient
  • making it less suitable for extensive city driving. Third row space is not great. Very cramped for adults.

    power one needs in their life 

    So many people have this car on their wishlists and so did I and that is why I went to purchase this as soon as it was launched. Its price will range between high numbers and is great besides being a bit expensive. The mileage is good and so is the ground clearance. I have got the white colour car which looks quite attractive.

    An Unpolished Gem 

    Exploring adventures in the Land Rover Defender has been an exhilarating experience that few vehicles can match. Its robust design and unmatched off road capabilities make it a perfect companion on rugged terrains. Powered by a 2.0L turbocharged petrol engine that made it powerful with 300 horsepower the Defender does not just tackle obstacles, it charges through them.The interior surprises with a blend of ruggedness and modernity, offering a touchscreen infotainment system alongside durable materials suited for rough use.However, the infotainment system could be more user friendly and the ride in urban settings might feel too stiff for some.

    Spacious but Could Use Some Refinement 

    Having owned the MG Hector Plus for nearly a year I have grown to appreciate its spaciousness and the comfort it provides. It is a great car for family trips with a 2+3+2 seating configuration ensuring everyone travels in comfort. The panoramic sunroof adds to the airy feel inside the cabin which is a hit among my kids. Performance is decent with the 2.0 liter diesel engine offering 170 horsepower and driving dynamics are generally smooth. However the fuel efficiency is not very impressive I barely get around 12-14 kmpl which is lower than what I expected.

    MG Hector Plus: Space and Comfort 

    Having owned the MG Hector Plus for around six months now, I have had enough time to thoroughly gauge what it is like to live with day to day. One of the Hector Plus' most outstanding features is its space. The 6 seater configuration with captain seats in the middle row offers comfort that few cars can match makes it perfect for family outings. The panoramic sunroof adds to the airy feeling inside the cabin, something my kids love.The 2.0 liter diesel engine producing 170 horsepower, paired with a smooth automatic transmission, handles city and highway drives adeptly.

    MG Hector Plus is an extraordinary vehicle. Two of my friends own this and has given a great response regarding the same, even I am planning to buy this next month. I researched about the features and functions and they seem to be versatile and quite practical. It has a user-friendly layout and is quite portable.
