MG Hector facelift spied testing

The Hector facelift gets subtle cosmetic updates and new alloy wheels.

Spy images of the MG Hector facelift have surfaced online. The SUV was spotted in Vadodara, Gujarat.

The spy images indicate that the Hector will get a few cosmetic updates including a new mesh grille and a new set of dual-tone alloy wheels. MG has also made a minor change to the rear fascia. The red strip connecting the two tail lamp clusters has been replaced with a black and chrome garnish. The dual-tone rear bumper with its silver insert has been carried over unchanged.

The MG Hector facelift is likely to be offered with the same set of engines as the current car. These include a 168 BHP 2.0-litre diesel engine paired with a 6-speed manual transmission, a 1.5-litre, turbo-petrol engine producing 141 BHP and 250 Nm mated to 6-speed DCT as well as a 1.5-litre mild-hybrid powertrain paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox.

Earlier this month, MG introduced a dual-tone version of the Hector. The carmaker is also gearing up to launch the Gloster in the coming weeks.
