Models like the Tata Harrier, Safari and Jeep Compass come the same 2.0L Diesel engine paired with an automatic gearbox.
MG Motor India has confirmed that the Hector diesel will not get an automatic transmission option.
In response to a comment on Twitter, the company stated that the launch of the Hector in Diesel Auto variant is not part of its roadmap as of now.
At present, the MG Hector is offered with 1.5-litre petrol, 1.5-litre mild-hybrid and a 2.0-litre diesel engine, which is only available with a 6-speed manual gearbox. However, models like the Tata Harrier, Safari and Jeep Compass use the same 2.0-litre diesel engine. In addition to a manual, these SUVs get an automatic transmission option as well.
MG is gearing up to launch the updated Hector in India. The SUV will receive some cosmetic changes, including a new grille and bumpers. It will also get Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) this time around.
