The MG Comet EV is somehow getting pretty popular among Indian celebrities. For instance, Suniel Shetty bought one some time ago. I understand the charm and appeal of something so compact for city dwellers. People who travel short distances every day can save a lot on running costs as they won’t have to bear the fuel expenses as high as for petrol or diesel cars. If they charge the EV at home, the prices for electricity are quite low. Also, the compact dimensions ensure great manoeuvrability in city usage. Let us see which other celebs opt for it in times to come.
