Leaked: MG Hector & Hector Plus To Soon Get A Facelift — Again; 4th Design For Hector Twins | V3Cars

We have recently learned that the MG Hector and Hector Plus are about to get a design update very soon — again. This is the 4th design for the Hector twins. The first time the car went on sale in 2019, it had a black grille. In 2021, they moved to adding a chrome dots pattern to the grille. In 2023, they got the chrome pro max plus upgrade. And for 2026, they are getting another update to the front design; enough to call it a facelift.

Leaked: MG Hector, Hector Plus Facelift 2026 Update Launching Soon

The usual industry practice is to give a car one minor update (usually called a facelift) and then a major update (called a generation change). We have seen Tata also do something similar with the Tiago and Tigor. Both of these cars got their 2nd facelift early in 2025. However, a 3rd facelift for the Hector and Hector Plus may feel like stretching the product life too far.

On the powertrain front, we shouldn't expect any revisions. So, we will most likely continue to see the same options as before, which include:

  • 1.5L turbo petrol with 6-speed manual transmission
  • 1.5L turbo petrol with CVT automatic transmission
  • 2.0L turbo diesel with 6-speed manual transmission

On the pricing front, we may see some revisions. Whether they will be for the better or the worse, we can’t guess at the moment as our source failed to provide us any information about pricing.
