Life is slow sometimes and crazy sometimes. Life has been a little crazy for me over the past month, which means running around and not having a lot of free time.

MG Comet Long Term Review – Second Report

In the first report, I mentioned how our small long-term aircraft attracts attention, making it less suitable for those who prefer to fly under the radar. Comet has since flown several kilometers in and around Mumbai, providing a range of new insights. We also have its main rival, the Tata Tiago EV, in our long-term fleet, which helps us make some interesting comparisons over time.We've established that the Comet is easy to park, maneuver, and has excellent air conditioning, but its ride quality leaves something to be desired. With a driving range of over 8,000 kilometers, there is a lot to discuss, especially in terms of range and charging.After a full charge, with regenerative braking set to "heavy," my range has been around 160-180 kilometers. Of course, this depends on flow and throttle input. Unfortunately, the Comet doesn't provide any real-time efficiency readings, so you're kind of…
