The Battery As A Service (BAAS) model isn't as exciting as it sounds. The ₹3.5 per km BAAS cost + charging cost will bring the running cost close to a very efficient hybrid petrol car. Also what was not mentioned in this video is that the customer must pay for at least 1,500 kms per month under BAAS model, bringing the usage cost of the battery to ₹5,250 per month even if the user drives it for less than 1,500 km. So it is not really suitable even for those who don't drive much.
BMW and some other brands already offer some features like that. You have to pay a subscription fee!! Not to forget the usual connected car tech, SIM and other charges are at 3k per year.

Funny how people are trying to segment this into a taxi. No taxi/fleet owner will take on 3.5/km of fixed cost, with charging extra. They will rather take their bet on battery lasting Lakhs of kms for 8+years. Long run will always be cheaper for taxi operators with a battery paid for. It's squarely intended for the non-calculating segment: individual owners. And there too people have started fiercely calculating now. So will be interesting to know how general public reacts to it. My guess is it will not fly, except maybe with those who have rooftop solar to charge it for free.
this is amazing , how beautifuly MG gives big space in car ... still gives so much vibrant features. Buy back offer great option... I wud say gud design , perfect smooth seating...
If MG wants people to buy windsor with a battery subscription plan, then in that case, they must make it free for 1 year, and the battery subscription plan should start from next year.
The car looks beautiful, the features are superb. The only thing will stop me to buy it is the range, 55 Kwh or at least 600 km range is something all ev aspirants are looking at to make it as their regular usable car

Aah…. great! Why don’t they have this battery as a service for comet as well. Then comet cN start at Rs 3/4 lakhs and have battery at Rs2/2.5 per km. They are also giving 1yr free charging at select points - all this combined can make the Comet a perfect city car.
Although the design is a big let down and that too big screen can be distracting, I like it because of its space,features and pretty descent power and torque figures too.
Hmm looks are subjective Of course it's spacious But the main contentious issue here is the subscription plan at Rs 3.50 per km, I'd rather buy an ICE car, which means I don't have to contend with range anxiety 😁
Very much sensible option.... Charging plus battery cost would be around 5.25 Rs. Per KM... Soo even if we are using it for 2 lakh kms ...entire cost would be still under 20 lakh.....Considering the comfort & features it offers.... It should be a hit....

Base model of Windsor with 38kw battery will cost 1226000 if you drive 18000km a year even if you do fast charging on average (63k to mg, 63k to charging) Punch 35kw variant will cost you around 14.7lakhs for same distance travelled Nexon 40kw variant will cost 16.7 lakhs for same distance After 3 years mg will buy back if we don’t want it. 6 lakhs guaranteed. And if you want to keep to car for long run your battery cannot be replaced free of cost after 8 years in other cars .
Full rate of this car might be around 20L. If you have made a down payment of 10L your loan emi may be around 20000pm. And you need to bear the replacement cost of battery after the warranty period. Instead just give 9.9L and give a Rs5250 pm (I think there's a minimum payment of 1500km pm). You can use the car lifelong trouble free as there's no worry about battery. It is also known that MG will provide free public charging for 3 years. i.e. if you are using only public charging you are spending only 5.25K for the whole month journey. There are rental plans (not for this car) but you have to spend atleast 70K pm😮. In a nutshell this is a game changing plan, looking for the same plan from other manufacturers 😊
The identically priced Punch offers a compelling alternative to the Windsor, especially since its price doesn't include the battery subscription cost. Calculating battery cost ROI based on mileage is challenging due to range limitations, making the pay-per-kilometer model seem sensible. Although the Windsor is larger, the extra space feels underutilized without an additional row of seats. Rear-wheel drive (RWD) would have allowed for a spacious frunk and offset the luggage space occupied by the third row. Overall, the Windsor seems optimized for financial efficiency rather than driving excitement, making it an accountant's delight but not a car enthusiast's dream.
What I noticed about some people in these comments are they do not really understand how much benefitting is this battery rental and making it even more VFM as MG is also giving lifetime warranty on the battery which means no replacement expense after few years also it’s just slightly high running cost but very low buying cost which compensates for it it has to offer.
