In a bid to keep the buzz alive around its breakout electric crossover, MG Motor India has unveiled the Windsor EV Inspire Edition—a special, limited-edition variant that’s blending fresh aesthetics with the model’s proven efficiency. Launched earlier this week on October 8, 2025, this head-turner is now trickling into dealerships nationwide, offering a stylish twist on the Windsor EV’s urban appeal. Priced at an accessible Rs 16.65 lakh (ex-showroom), the Inspire Edition is set to ignite bookings with its exclusive flair, targeting style-conscious buyers in a segment where personalization is king.
Building on the Windsor EV’s success—over 10,000 units delivered since its July launch—this special edition amps up the visual drama without altering the core specs. With production capped at just 300 units, it’s a collector’s item for early birds, blending premium touches with the practicality that made the Windsor a segment disruptor against rivals like the Tata Curvv EV and Mahindra XUV400.
Exterior: Dual-Tone Drama with Rose Gold Accents
The Inspire Edition’s curb appeal starts with a striking dual-tone paint scheme: a pristine white body paired with a glossy black roof, outside rear-view mirrors (ORVMs), and pillars for a floating-roof effect that screams sophistication. Rolling on newly designed 18-inch black alloy wheels, it gains a sportier stance, while subtle “Inspire” badges on the sides nod to its exclusivity.
Adding a touch of elegance are rose gold inserts along the side cladding, subtly elevating the Windsor’s crossover lines without overwhelming its compact footprint (4,298 mm long). These tweaks keep the aerodynamic silhouette intact—key for that claimed 331 km range—while making it stand out in traffic. For those wanting to personalize further, MG is bundling a curated accessory pack, including custom mats, chrome accents, and ambient lighting kits tailored for the edition.
Interior: Red-and-Black Opulence with Inspirational Details
Step inside, and the cabin channels a premium lounge vibe with dual-tone black and red upholstery that wraps the seats in supple comfort. Front headrests bear embroidered “Inspire” lettering—a cheeky reminder of the edition’s motivational moniker—while gold highlights accent the dashboard, door panels, and steering wheel for a cohesive, upscale feel.The tech suite remains unchanged from the standard Windsor: a 15.6-inch touchscreen with wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, a 360-degree camera, and Level 2 ADAS features like adaptive cruise control. Rear passengers get ventilated seats and ample legroom in the five-seater layout, with the frunk and 332-liter boot (expandable to 1,347 liters) ensuring everyday versatility. It’s a cabin that feels a cut above its price point, ideal for young professionals craving EV chic on a budget.
Powertrain and Range: Unchanged Efficiency for Daily Drives
Under the skin, the Inspire Edition sticks to the Windsor EV’s reliable recipe: a 38 kWh battery pack powering a rear-mounted electric motor with 134 bhp and 200 Nm of torque. Acceleration from 0-100 km/h clocks in at 8.6 seconds, with a top speed of 155 km/h—peppy enough for city sprints and highway jaunts.The ARAI-certified 331 km range on a single charge, coupled with 10-80% DC fast charging in 27 minutes, keeps it practical for India’s patchy infrastructure. Regenerative braking and vehicle-to-load (V2L) capability round out the eco-friendly package, with running costs under Rs 1 per km making it a no-brainer for cost-savvy commuters.
Limited Edition Rush: Bookings Open, Deliveries from October 15
Exclusivity is the name of the game here—only 300 units will be built, ensuring the Inspire Edition becomes a rare sight on roads. Bookings kicked off immediately post-launch via MG’s website or dealerships, with a token of Rs 25,000 securing your spot. Deliveries commence on October 15, 2025, aligning with the festive season to capitalize on buyer sentiment.At Rs 16.65 lakh, it’s a Rs 10,000 premium over the top-spec Essence Pro variant, justified by the bespoke styling and accessories. MG’s strategy mirrors global trends of limited editions to boost brand loyalty, especially as EV sales in India surge past 200,000 units in Q3 2025.
Why the Inspire Edition Could Spark a Style Revolution
The Windsor EV already redefined compact EVs with its “Unlimited Power to Impress” tagline, undercutting rivals on features while delivering smiles per mile. The Inspire Edition takes that ethos further, infusing personality into a market often dominated by cookie-cutter designs. For first-time EV owners or fleet upgraders, it’s a gateway to electric mobility that’s as photogenic as it is functional.
As MG eyes 50,000 annual EV sales by 2026, specials like this keep the Windsor relevant amid incoming competition. If you’re in the hunt for an EV that turns heads without breaking the bank, the Inspire Edition’s arrival at dealers is your cue—act fast, before the 300 slots vanish. In India’s electric evolution, inspiration isn’t just a badge; it’s the drive forward.
