For starters, the Hector Snowstorm’s primary hue is white and the roof and pillars are finished in black, giving it a nice contrasting look. MG has also added stealth as an ingredient to this recipe by adding dark chrome elements in the grille, bumpers and badging. To gel along with the black and white theme, the 18-inch alloys are finished in black if you look behind it. And lastly, the finishing touches – streaks of red can be found around the headlight surrounds and rear bumper, while the brake callipers are finished in… you guessed it… red.

A couple of updates have been made to the cabin as well. The main change is the presence of an all-black dashboard with black seat covers. In addition to that, MG has updated the trim inserts with a gunmetal grey insert to complement the overall theme. Lastly, Snowstorm has been embossed on the front seat headrests to denote which variant you’re driving. 

Since the Snowstorm Edition is not based on the top-end model you do miss out on ADAS. But apart from that, you get all the niceties such as a 14-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a wireless phone charger, automatic climate control, ventilated front seats with powered adjustment, a panoramic sunroof and a 9-speaker Infinity sound system.
