MG Comet EV Blackstorm Edition – What’s Special?

It enhances the Comet’s aesthetics with a dark Starry Black paint scheme, along with red accents on the bumper, skid plate, side cladding, and Morris Garages emblem on the hood for a sportier and aggressive appeal. It also features dark alloy wheels with a red star accent.
Inside, the dashboard continues to come in a white & grey dual-tone theme; however, the seats are blacked-out, complemented by red stitchings and “Blackstorm’ badges on the headrests.
