New MG Starlight Debuts With 530 km EV Range and 3-Row Cabin

MG Starlight has made its global debut in Indonesia. The electric version offers a claimed range of up to 530 km. The SUV comes with a spacious three-row cabin and premium features.

MG has officially unveiled the new Starlight at the 2026 Indonesia Motor Show.

The three-row SUV is expected to arrive in India in the future under the MG brand. It comes with a choice of electric (EV) and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) powertrains, along with a long list of features.

Three-Row SUV With Modern Design

The new MG Starlight measures around 4.7 metres in length, making it similar in size to the MG Hector Plus. The SUV gets a modern design with full LED headlamps, stylish daytime running lights, connected LED tail lamps and 18-inch dual-tone alloy wheels. Other highlights include a powered tailgate and rain-sensing wipers. The clean design and upright stance give the SUV a strong road presence.
