Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

MG Hector
- Feels and looks premium inside and out
- Generous cabin space, comfortable for even taller passengers
- Loaded with good features like a 14-inch touchscreen, ventilated front seats, and a panoramic sunroof
- Safety kit boosted by the inclusion of ADAS
- A refined petrol engine with comfortable ride quality
MG RX5
- Clean and sophisticated European styling
- The MG RX5 already has a plug-in hybrid model that could be introduced here at a later stage
- Always connected to the internet and can do several things such as remote start, switch on the AC, make payments, among others
- Will be bigger than both the Creta and Compass but would still be priced in the same range

MG Hector
- Its styling could seem too blingy to some buyers
- Has lost out on the mild-hybrid tech; still no diesel-auto combo
- Its electronics could have been more responsive
- Should have had better contoured seats and underthigh support at the rear
- Fuel efficiency of the petrol engine is still an issue
MG RX5
- MG is a relatively unknown brand in the country compared to Hyundai and Jeep
- Dealer and service network would be limited at the time of launch
