JSW MG Motor has teased its upcoming SUV for the Indian market, which is likely to be called Hector Tomahawk. It is set to be revealed on August 26, 2026. It will be the brand’s first product to be underpinned by the ADAPT (Advanced Drive Architecture Platform Technology) platform and will be a fully electric vehicle.
MG Hector Tomahawk EV – What Does The Teaser Reveal?
The official teaser shows a glimpse of its exterior design, revealing bits like rectangular LED headlamps with twin-element LED DRLs, silver-finished alloy wheels, pull-type door handles, prominent roof rails, and twin-element LED tail lamps mimicking the DRLs.
All these design elements confirm that it is essentially a rebadged version of the Wuling Eksion (Starlight 560) sold in the Indonesian market.
Dimensionally, the MG Hector Tomahawk is likely to be similar in size to the Wuling Eksion 7-seater, which measures 4,745mm in length, 1,850mm in width, 1,755mm in height, and has a wheelbase of 2,9810mm.
