A major attraction is the need for a small space to park

1- Color options are desolated but only white is available.2) A major attraction is the need for a small space to park.. but the parking assistant reverse camera is absent.3) Only one key… if battery operated key is not functioning.. no other option but to break the side glass to enter the car. There is no provision to use the manual key to open the door. I believe.., these are major issues to be considered before deciding on MG Comet-Executive…

Maruti Suzuki Wagon R

Very explant service and the drive is very comfortable, very comfortable space for luggage and persons. All future is very good and very good averages in petrol, no speed increase in running time.

Spending a week with the MG Comet EV

The MG Comet EV replaced my car as a daily driver for a week. This is all that I learned in the said time.

Maruti Suzuki Wagon R Flex-fuel — First Look

By Ninad Ambre22 Jan 2023

The way things are being planned, the Maruti Suzuki Wagon R Flex-fuel (FF) is set to become India's first mass-segment flex-fuel car. It's one of the answers to the never-ending quest for alternative fuels for cars. The Wagon R FF is designed to run on any ethanol-petrol blend and will eventually help reduce tailpipe emissions. It also goes without saying it will comply with the upcoming and more stringent BS6 phase-II emission norms. The prototype exhibited at Maruti's pavilion at the 2023 Auto Expo looked exactly the same as the standard Wagon R on sale in India, save for the fluorescent badging. We believe the 'Flex-Fuel' branding on the side will be mellowed down in the production avatar. However, the bright green embellishments may be retained to display its green, environment-friendly avatar.

MG Comet Long Term Review: City Report

By Vikrant Singh05 Jun 2024

We have had the MG Comet on our long-term fleet for a while. And, though I have driven the car on and off for short stints like fetching coffee, I never dared to take it home. I live 40km away from my workplace and don’t have a charger at home.
