MG Cloud EV: When Is It Coming To India?
MG Motors will be unveiling the Clould EV this year itself in the country. After all the rumors, the company itself has confirmed the timeline for its next electric four wheeler in India which is scheduled for the festive season. While the exact date is not announced by MG Motor, the timeline suggested is for October 2024. It seems that the brand is trying to take a bite of the surge in car sales that is witnessed every year during the festive season.
MG Motor has only shared insight related to the Cloud EV’s arrival as of now and has kept the pricing details a mystery as of now. Some previous reports hinted it to be priced lower than the existing ZS EV model. Which means it could be priced starting under Rs. 18 lakh in the country. But these prices are to be taken as a pinch of salt considering the costs aren’t confirmed officially.
