The MG Windsor Essence Pro price will be hiked from July 2025

MG Motor India has recently announced a price increase for its popular electric vehicle, the MG Windsor EV, effective immediately. This price hike is only on the top-end variant of the car, the Essence Pro EV, which is now Rs 21,000 costlier

When the MG Windsor Essence Pro was introduced to the market, it was priced around Rs 17.49 Lakh. Since the day of its debut, the car was applicable for the first 8,000 bookings. As the demand increased, all 8,000 bookings were exhausted in just 24 hours. Seeing this, the prices were raised by Rs 60,000. After the price rose, the car was now available at Rs 18.10 lakh for Indian customers.

Why the hike in the price?

MG Motor has not officially stated any reason for such a hike in price for the Windsor EV. However, various analysts from the industry suggest that increasing input costs and a global rise in tariffs across the country have led the board to take such immediate measures. Alas, the market conditions are spontaneously changing.

MG Motor has not publicly elaborated on the reasons behind the price revision. However, industry analysts attribute the increase to rising input costs and changing market conditions. The brand had previously introduced the Pro variants only a few months ago, and now, with an increase of Rs 21,000, the price of the MG Windsor Essence Pro EV costs around Rs 18.31 lakh.

As per the reports, with the increase in price of Rs 21,000, the top model might become costlier than before. The sales of the particular variant can reflect the market-driven sales growth. Buyers might not be interested in going for the top model choice due to the increase in prices. However, with enriched features and comfortable riding, the vehicle still turns the heads of customers.
