Design

• The biggest change on the facelifted Hector is up front as previously seen from the leaked image. It now gets a much larger and bolder grille, finished with heavy chrome elements that give it a more imposing look than before. 

• The split LED headlamps and LED DRLs remain unchanged, but the revised bumper detailing makes the front look fresher. 

• From the side and rear, the Hector looks largely the same. It gets updated 18-inch dual-tone alloy wheels. You can get a more detailed look at the new Hector in real-life images in our linked report.

Interior

• Inside, the layout of the cabin remains familiar, which isn’t a bad thing. The Hector gets a new dual-tone Ice Grey cabin theme now. 

• The Hector will be a 5-seater SUV while the Hector Plus facelift will cater for its 6-seater and 7-seater versions. The front seats get an extended under-thigh support.

• MG has made small updates to the trims and finishes to make the cabin feel a bit more upmarket. 

• The dashboard gets a layered design with the big portrait touchscreen as the key highlight. There are plenty of gloss black elements across the dashboard and centre console.

It comes with highlights like a 14-inch infotainment screen, panoramic sunroof, powered and ventilated front seats, wireless phone charger, 8-colour ambient lighting, an air purifier, push-button start/stop, a powered tailgate, cruise control and an Infinity sound system.
