Marking one year of success for its popular electric crossover, MG has launched the Windsor EV Inspire Edition in India at a starting price of ₹16.65 lakh. Limited to just 300 units, this exclusive edition celebrates the Windsor EV crossing the milestone of 40,000 sales within its first year.
With unique styling, premium interiors, added features, and new accessory packs, the Inspire Edition offers a distinct appeal for EV buyers seeking exclusivity. Bookings are now open across MG dealerships and online channels.
Pricing and Availability
- Starting Price: ₹16.65 lakh (ex-showroom).
- Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) Model: ₹9.99 lakh (initial cost), with a flexible battery subscription.
- Units Available: Limited to 300 only.
The Inspire Edition is based on the 38kWh variant of the Windsor EV and is designed to offer a blend of style, technology, and premium ownership experience.
Exterior Highlights: Dual-Tone Elegance
The Windsor EV Inspire Edition sets itself apart visually with several exclusive styling updates:
- Dual-Tone Finish: Pearl White body with a contrasting Starry Black roof and pillars.
- Rose Gold Accents: Found on the fascia, bumpers, and doors for an upscale touch.
- Black Detailing: Alloy wheels, ORVMs, and roof rails finished in glossy black.
- ‘Inspire’ Badging: Special edition badges are placed on the D-pillars for exclusivity.
This combination gives the crossover a more premium and stylish presence on Indian roads.
Interior Upgrades: Premium and Exclusive
Inside the Inspire Edition, MG has focused on a luxury-themed cabin with standout colors and comfort-focused details.
- Sangria Red Upholstery: Exclusive leather seats with embroidered ‘Inspire’ branding on the headrests.
- Black and Gold Accents: Dashboard, door trims, and center armrest carry a blacked-out finish with subtle gold detailing.
- Premium Accessories: Inspire-themed cushions, 3D floor mats, and leather key covers are standard inclusions.
These updates give the cabin a much more upmarket feel compared to the standard Windsor EV.
Exclusive Infotainment Features
The Inspire Edition introduces new infotainment functionalities tailored to enhance convenience and lifestyle.
- Watch Wellness App: Allows users to access a curated library of wellness and relaxation videos directly on the main infotainment screen.
- Book My Service: Lets owners schedule service appointments seamlessly from the infotainment unit without needing a separate app.
These features position the Windsor EV as not just a mobility product but also as a lifestyle-oriented EV.
Accessory Pack
To further differentiate the Inspire Edition, MG has bundled a set of bespoke accessories:
- Themed Cushions and Mats
- Rear Sunshades
- 4K Dashcam
- Illuminated Door Sill Plates (optional)
- Panoramic Roof Animation Feature
This makes the special edition not only stylish but also practical for daily use.
Powertrain and Performance
The Inspire Edition is powered by the same setup as the Windsor EV’s 38kWh variant:
- Motor: Single front-mounted electric motor.
- Power Output: 136hp.
- Torque: 200Nm.
- Claimed Range: 332 km (certified).
- Real-World Tested Range: Around 308 km per charge, which is close to the official figure.
This balance of power and efficiency makes it one of the most practical EVs for city use and short intercity commutes.
Charging Options
MG continues to offer multiple charging solutions for Windsor EV buyers, including the Inspire Edition:
- AC Wall Box Charger (home installation).
- DC Fast Charging – 0 to 80% in around 45 minutes.
- Portable Charger for emergencies.
These charging options ensure flexibility for both city dwellers and long-distance commuters.
Driving and Ride Quality
The Windsor EV Inspire Edition retains the well-rounded dynamics of the regular Windsor EV:
- Smooth Acceleration thanks to instant torque from the electric motor.
- Low Center of Gravity due to battery placement improves handling stability.
- Silent Cabin Experience, further enhanced by additional sound insulation in the Inspire Edition.
The Inspire Edition aims to provide a refined drive with urban practicality.
Why the Inspire Edition Stands Out
- Exclusivity: Limited to 300 units, making it a collectible for early adopters.
- Premium Design: Dual-tone exterior with Rose Gold accents sets it apart from standard trims.
- Feature Additions: Infotainment apps like Watch Wellness and Book My Service add lifestyle value.
- Practical Performance: Real-world range of over 300 km ensures peace of mind for everyday use.
- Accessory Pack: Adds convenience and personalization.
Future of EV Market in India
With festive demand and increasing adoption, the launch of the Windsor EV Inspire Edition underlines MG’s commitment to expanding the electric mobility space in India. As infrastructure grows, more limited editions and lifestyle-oriented EVs will likely be introduced, catering to a diverse audience.
