The safety package includes ABS, EBD, ESP, traction control, hill-hold control and brake assist as standard. A 360-degree camera with a wheel view has been added. The Hector continues with a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine, available with a CVT or manual transmission, producing 143 PS and 250 Nm of torque. The diesel variant is planned for 2026. The Hector has been a key model for the brand with 1,50,000 customers since launch, said Anurag Mehrotra, Managing Director, JSW MG Motor India.
