SW MG Motor India has delivered one hundred of the newly released MG Windsor electric vehicles (EVs) to Hyderabad. The popular crossover utility vehicle (CUV) was sold retail at the automaker’s RAAM MG dealership.
15,176 reservations were made in a single day when Windsor made its debut in India in September. In addition to becoming the best-selling electric vehicle in India, it sold 3,116 units in October, making up almost 30% of total sales of electric vehicles in the country during that time.
The new EV laws passed by the Telangana government contributed to the Windsor’s impressive Hyderabad sales.

The government order will exempt commercial vehicles, electric two-wheelers, and electric four-wheelers.
