Now in terms of features, the MG Hector Plus is identical to the Hector. The vertical 10.4-inch HD touchscreen takes the centre stage and is a one source destination to access the entire range of connected car features. Of course you can continue to access most of that with the voice assist function as well. Then there is an eight-speaker Infinity surround sound system, 7-inch MID screen, ambient lighting, auto climate control, a lager panoramic sunroof, powered ORVMs and power adjustable driver's seat among others.
