KATHMANDU: Paramount Motors, the official distributor of MG vehicles in Nepal, has launched the upgraded version of the Comet EV in the Nepali market.
The refreshed Comet EV comes equipped with several new features, including a rear parking camera, power folding side mirrors and 7kW fast-charging capability. With fast charging, the car can be fully charged from 0 to 100% in just 3.5 hours, according to the company.

MG is offering an 8-year or 120,000-kilometer warranty on the battery and a 3-year or 100,000-kilometer warranty on the high-voltage components.
The upgraded Comet EV is powered by a 17.3 kWh prismatic cell lithium-ion battery that delivers a range of up to 230 kilometers on a full charge. The battery is rated IP67 for dust and water resistance and has passed 39 rigorous safety tests, according to the company.
The car features a 10.25-inch dual display system, comprising an infotainment touchscreen and a digital instrument cluster. It also comes with a smart key for added convenience.
