- Better feature value: Mid‑range buyers now get camera and folding mirrors; top‑end gets better interiors and sound.
- Choose your purchase plan wisely:
- Outright purchase: Higher upfront, no per‑km costs
- BaaS plan: Lower initial investment, ongoing cost ~₹2.5/km
✅ Bottom Line
The 2025 MG Comet EV delivers more features—especially in Excite and Exclusive variants—while raising prices modestly. For those prioritizing lower upfront cost and value, BaaS makes sense.
