MG Windsor EV Pro deliveries commenced. Check details

The EV was launched recently and achieved 8,000 bookings in the span of 24 hours. It is the top-of-the-line variant in Windsor lineup and features numerous new things compared to the standard Windsor EV.
The MG Windsor Pro was priced at ₹ 17.49 lakh (ex-showroom) when it was launched in India, and was available for the initial 8,000 buyers. The EV is also available with the battery-as-a-service (Baas) option, which can be purchased by consumers at a price of ₹ 12.49 lakh (introductory and ex-showroom). Here, the consumer needs to pay an amount of ₹ 4.50 per kilometre. With the introductory prices over, the Windsor Pro is priced at ₹ 18.09 lakh, ex-showroom and ₹ 13.10 lakh with BaaS.
The cabin has been given fresh dual-tone black and ivory interiors that give the new variant a luxury touch. The Pro variant of the MG Windsor EV gets a visual upgrade with newly designed diamond-cut alloy wheels, setting it apart from the aero-style wheels seen on the lower trims. It also introduces three fresh paint options—Celadon Blue, Glaze Red, and Aurora Silver—further enhancing its premium appeal.
Step inside, and the Windsor Pro continues to impress with a feature-rich cabin. At the center is a large 15.6-inch touchscreen infotainment system, complemented by an 8.8-inch digital instrument cluster. A panoramic glass roof brings an airy feel to the cabin, while amenities like wireless phone charging, a nine-speaker Infinity sound system, 360-degree camera, electronic parking brake, and six airbags round out the list of creature comforts and safety enhancements.
What truly sets the Windsor Pro apart, however, is its integration of Level 2 Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). This includes smart driving aids like Traffic Jam Assist, Forward Collision Warning, and Adaptive Cruise Control, offering added convenience and safety on the move.
In addition to these upgrades, the Windsor Pro continues to support Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) and Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) charging capabilities, giving users flexible power-sharing and charging options—a standout feature in its segment.
Driving the MG Windsor Pro EV is a larger 52.9 kWh battery pack. It assists the electric powerplant to produce 134 bhp top-end power and 200 Nm of maximum torque. The electric car can cover a distance of up to 449 kilometres in a single charge.

Royal Enfield's Cheyyar plant set to become an all-women facility
Gender inclusivity is the new mantra which Royal Enfield wants to embrace fully as the motorcycle maker works towards making its Cheyyar plant in Tamil Nadu an all-women facility. Royal Enfield's CEO, B. Govindarajan, in his social media post, recently shared that the company is focusing on bringing diversity at its manufacturing facilities. "At Cheyyar, we've built our first all-women assembly line and the energy there is something else," Govindarajan wrote, and added that the company is working towards making Cheyyar Royal Enfield's first all-women plant, with a 100 per cent female workforce. Notably, the company's Vallam facility-- also in Tamil Nadu--has the highest number of women employees at any single Royal Enfield facility, accounting for 26 per cent of the workforce there. The two-wheeler maker's CEO and also the MD of Eicher Motors further stated in the post that the organisation's gender diversity ratio stood at around 5 per cent some years ago, and is presently close to 20 per cent. "In FY25 alone, 24 per cent of our new hires were women, surpassing our overall gender diversity target for the year," he noted. In the ongoing calendar year 2025, so far, about 3,90,171 Royal Enfield two-wheelers have been registered in India, according to the Vahan Portal . These figures last year stood at 8,16,741 units, while in 2023 the number was 7,85,342 units. Other vehicle makers, including Tata Motors and MG Motor India , have previously shared announcements around improving the diversity ratio across different functions. For instance, Tata Motors during 2023, had announced an all women assembly line at its Pune Plant. MG Motor India, on the other hand, has close to 40 per cent women in its workforce at its Halol, Gujarat plant.

Tata Motors plans a premium push as competition intensifies in EV space
Tata Motors Ltd, the country's first carmaker to enter the electric vehicles space with the launch of Tigor back in 2018, aims to bolster its presence in the premium EV segment while ensuring products across a full spectrum of price points amid intensifying competition. India's third-largest automaker by the number of cars sold launched the EV variant of its Harrier sports utility vehicle (SUV) on Tuesday at an ex-showroom price of ₹21.49 lakh. The launch of the new electric vehicle comes at a time when Tata Motors' lead in the electric vehicles segment is being aggressively challenged by MG Motor India, Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) and Hyundai. Its market share in the EV space slumped to 55.4% in FY25, from 73.1% in FY24 and 84% in FY23. As many as 117,000 EV cars were sold in India in FY25. However, Shailesh Chandra, managing director at Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles and Tata Passenger Electric Mobility, noted that the company's key strength is its strategy to have a presence in each price point. Also Read: How Tata Motors plans to win back the market with its hatchbacks 'The right way to look at the market is to divide it into three segments based on pricing. Through our launches this year, we will have 2 cars each in the entry segment, mid segment and the high segment," Chandra told Mint in an interview. 'After Harrier and Sierra launches this year, we will go even further in the premium segment with more launches in upcoming years." Focus on volumes Sales of higher-priced cars result in an increase in the average selling price, which allows a company to have more revenue even if the volume declines. Mahindra & Mahindra had stated earlier that it is looking to dominate the market through leadership in revenue market share. During the January to March quarter, M&M garnered a 33.1% revenue share. However, Chandra says Tata Motors will not shift its focus to revenue market share and instead look to dominate volumes. 'While selling more luxury vehicles can help get more revenue share, whether you are a popular brand among the customers of the country is decided by the share in volumes," Chandra highlighted. But the car market has not given automakers many reasons to cheer in the last one year. During the last financial year, the growth in the passenger vehicle market was just 2%. Tata Motors sales in the year was at 556,263 units, 3% lower than in FY24. 'You have to try and excite a tepid car market through new launches," Chandra said. Market share, service challenges During April and May 2025, Tata Motors' share in the EV market fell to 38% with 9,043 units sold. Since late last year, it has faced pressure from Windsor EV of JSW MG Motor India, Creta EV of Hyundai Motor India and Mahindra electric SUVs BE 6 and XEV 9e. Shares of Tata Motors fell 1% on Tuesday to close at ₹704.30 apiece on the National Stock Exchange. The stock has fallen 5.5% during 2025 as against a 0.86% rise in Nifty Auto index. Also Read: Trump's tariffs push Indian exporters to redraw game plans While Tata Motors is trying to address the challenge by introducing new models in each price range, it is also addressing customers' complaints about the company's servicing capabilities. During a meeting with analysts in March, the management acknowledged that there was an issue with service capabilities. 'Management indicated that while most of its products are well positioned, there is a need to enhance the service capabilities of its outlets," analysts at Motilal Oswal Financial Services wrote in a 11 March note. 'Given the rise in its market share without a corresponding increase in servicing throughput, customers are now facing challenges in receiving timely service." Chandra also noted that the company's focus in the last one year has been on improving servicing capabilities. 'Our growth in the last few years in a few cities was more than anticipated, which led to some hotspots emerging where our service capabilities lagged. We have focused on increasing servicing bays at our service centers, adding more than 1,300 bays over the last one year," he said. EV offerings, premiumization plans In 2025, Tata Motors has been trying to increase the premium experience of its cars with refreshed launches of its hatchbacks Tiago and Altroz. To get growth back in the passenger vehicle market, it is expanding offerings in the electric vehicle space and premiumising its cheaper hatchback cars in the sub- ₹10 lakh range to attract more customers. Also Read: Fronx, Jimny drive Maruti's export boom to Japan amid home market slowdown "Refresh launches of Altroz and Tiago (launched in Q4) will help Tata Motors regain lost market share in hatches, while the launch of Sierra ICE and EV and Harrier EV may strengthen Utility Vehicle share," Jay Kale of Elara Capital wrote in a 14 May note.

Tata Motors races to regain EV dominance with Harrier.ev launch as rivals gain ground
Tata Motors on Tuesday launched the much-awaited in an effort to strengthen its position in India's electric vehicle (EV) market. The move comes as rival carmakers such as JSW MG Motor and Mahindra & Mahindra ramp up their EV offerings, chipping away at Tata's once-dominant market share. Just a year ago, Tata Motors commanded 73% of India's electric passenger vehicle market. However, a surge in rival launches and their quick adoption by EV buyers has eroded Tata's lead, making the a crucial addition to its lineup. Tata Motors' electric car sales fell 15% in May 2025 as it delivered 4,316 units compared to 5,083 in the same month last year. This decline reduced its share in the small but fast-growing EV market to 35%. In contrast, JSW MG Motor India's share in this segment rose to 30% share as its sales, thanks to the high demand for its Windsor model, grew by 159% year-on-year to 3,737 units. Mahindra & Mahindra, which commenced deliveries of the BE 6 and XEV 9E in March this year, sold 2,605 EVs in May 2025, boosting its market share to 21%. The company has delivered 10,000 units of these models since deliveries began on March 20. Tata Motors Passenger Vehicle and Tata Passenger Electric Mobility Managing Director Shailesh Chandra recently said that they have aspirations to have more than 50% market share in the EV market in the mid-to-long term. 'We would aspire to be at a 50 per cent market share by having a very wide product portfolio and products which are aligned to the expectation of the customers,' he stated.
