Technology that drives MG Hector

With 50+ connected features, the MG Hector is India’s first car that will offer connectivity on the go. And the brain behind it is the revolutionary i-SMART Next Gen technology. It combines hardware, software, connectivity, services and applications to make your driving experience easier, smoother, and smarter.

Information at a glance

This visually delightful interface gives all the information at a glance and allows you to manage complete vehicle settings, with just a touch.

M2M Embedded SIM

The first to introduce Machine to Machine - M2M embedded sim in our cars. The sim is Internet protocol version 6, IPV6 ready for 5G, making it future proof.

Over-the-air updates

The biggest advantage of connected mobility is OTA (Over-The-Air updates). For the first time in India, a car will get updated over the air. So, like your smartphones, your MG Hector will get a new look screen and themes, new apps and new entertainment content from time to time as new updates are made available.

Voice Assistant

Saying “Hello, MG” activates the in-car control system, enabling a better, hands-free interaction between you and your MG, and leading to a more enjoyable, safer journey. The assistant adapts Indian-English pronunciation to our ASR so the car system can hear you correctly. And with Natural Language Understanding (NLU), it overcomes the challenges of understanding different accents like Indian-English and English accents.

e-Call

Our Head Unit houses a self-initiated Emergency Call feature that reaches our 24-by-7 Pulse Hub. The feature is activated once airbags are deployed under an emergency situation, and a text message is triggered. This message goes to the Pulse Hub with the car’s location. A call is made to the head unit immediately. In case of no response, the owner’s phone is called, followed by a call to the emergency contact. In case the owner does not respond, or needs assistance, emergency response is initiated to offer speedy assistance.

Make your drive fun

Driving is no fun without music. We haven't just used our capabilities as India's first Internet Car to get you to your destination faster. We have also used it to make your drive fun. The Hector comes embedded with a Gaana Premium Account. Add that to the seamless, on-the-go connectivity, and you have your favourite tunes at the tap of a button.
