In a sea of futuristic electric cars trying to outdo each other with wild designs and tech overload, the MG Windsor EV 2025 brings a refreshing change. It’s not here to win style contests or look like a spaceship.
Instead, it’s a grounded, well-thought-out family EV that actually works for daily Indian life. It delivers real-world usability, premium practicality, and EV efficiency — without the usual compromise.

Styling
Right from the first glance, the Windsor EV strikes a fine balance. It merges next-gen EV looks with the comforting familiarity of a traditional family car. The signature chrome grille, which cleverly houses sensors and the engine cap, pairs well with aerodynamic 18-inch alloy wheels that reduce drag and boost overall efficiency.
The wide-opening doors are a thoughtful touch, making it easier to load children, luggage, groceries, or even assist elderly passengers. The matte-finish bumpers add a layer of scratch resistance, especially useful in tight city parking.
Meanwhile, LED headlights provide ample road visibility without being harsh on oncoming traffic. The overall look is modern but not flashy — the kind of design that ages gracefully.
Performance
Under the hood (well, under the floor), the Windsor EV is powered by a 201 horsepower front-mounted electric motor that delivers smooth and quick performance, especially suited for Indian cities.
It can go from 0 to 60 km/h in just 4.2 seconds, making it ideal for quick merges or sudden overtakes. With 320Nm of instant torque, you get seamless acceleration without the delay of gear shifts.
The car also features three levels of regenerative braking, allowing drivers to choose between gentle coasting or one-pedal driving. It’s well-balanced, thanks to a 50:50 weight distribution, and the adaptive suspension ensures the car stays planted even on uneven Indian roads. This isn’t a sports car, but it offers solid confidence behind the wheel.
Battery
Let’s talk about what powers this machine. The Windsor EV packs a 64 kWh LFP (lithium iron phosphate) battery that offers a claimed range of 450 km, with a more realistic real-world figure of around 380 km when the AC is running.
That’s plenty for daily commutes and even long weekend drives. Fast charging support means you can juice it from 10 to 80 percent in under 40 minutes, which is perfect for pit stops on road trips.
The battery is smartly placed underneath the floor, allowing for a spacious 500-litre boot. One standout feature is the Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) function, which lets you power home appliances or gadgets directly from the car — a lifesaver during power outages or remote travel. The battery is also covered by an eight-year or 160,000 km warranty, offering peace of mind for long-term owners.

Interior
Step inside, and you’ll immediately notice that the Windsor EV is built with families in mind. The flat floor and wide cabin make it easy to seat three adults comfortably in the back, without the awkward middle seat hump found in many rivals.
Up front, there’s a 10.1-inch touchscreen for infotainment, but MG has wisely kept physical controls for climate, avoiding annoying submenu navigation while driving.
Storage is generous with over 30 pockets and compartments, including a cooled glovebox and hidden drawers under the seats. There’s even an R-TRAY sunshade setup perfect for impromptu snack breaks.
Clean air is ensured with a built-in PM2.5 air purifier, and leatherette seats make cleaning up after road trips or family outings a whole lot easier.
Safety
When it comes to safety, MG didn’t just stop at the basics. In addition to six airbags and Electronic Stability Control (ESC), the Windsor EV features a 360-degree camera setup with a curb-view assist mode — super useful for tight parking spots and narrow lanes.
A rear occupant alert reminds drivers to check the back seat before locking the car, helping prevent accidental lock-ins.
Adaptive high-beam headlights adjust automatically to prevent blinding other drivers. And since it’s built with India’s monsoons in mind, the Windsor EV also features battery protection designed to withstand ankle-deep water, making it monsoon-ready right out of the showroom.
Economics
For everything packed into the Windsor EV, the ex-showroom price of ₹25 lakh is more than reasonable. But the real savings show up over time. Running costs are about 70% lower compared to diesel vehicles, and owners can save approximately ₹1.25 lakh over five years compared to similar petrol-powered cars.
On top of that, MG is offering five years of free service, including brake pad replacements. The battery is modular, so individual cells can be replaced without swapping the entire pack — a future-proof move. Add to that MG’s 600+ service centers across India, even in Tier 2 cities, and it’s clear this car is built for long-term ownership.
The MG Windsor EV 2025 is not trying to be a trendsetter or a flashy new toy. Instead, it quietly delivers everything Indian families actually need from an electric car — practical features, real-world range, family comfort, and low cost of ownership. It’s the kind of EV that makes the switch from petrol or diesel feel like a no-brainer.
