What’s New in the 2025 MG Hector?
While the exterior design and rich feature list remain unchanged, MG Motor India has made a vital update where it matters most—under the bonnet.
E20 Compliance: A Future-Ready Move

The 2025 Hector’s 1.5L turbo petrol engine is now capable of running on E20 fuel, a blend that includes 20% ethanol, making it more eco-friendly and aligned with India’s sustainability goals.
This move not only supports the government’s vision of reducing fossil fuel dependency but also reinforces JSW MG Motor India’s commitment to innovation and environmental consciousness. The brand previously introduced E20-compliance with the MG Astor, and now continues the momentum with the Hector.
