The price of MG Comet EV has significantly dropped. It now costs 6.99 lakh rupees, down from the previous 7.98 lakh rupees (ex-showroom). This is a reduction of 99,000 rupees. On the other hand, the current price of Maruti WagonR 1.2-liter ZXi+ AGS variant is 7.25 lakh rupees (ex-showroom), while the base model is priced at 5.54 lakh rupees (ex-showroom).
