As of May 20, 2025 – MG Motor India has released fresh imagery highlighting the boot space of the Hector Tomahawk PHEV, specifically showing the rear split seats in their folded position. The visual detail underscores the plug-in hybrid SUV’s practical side, appealing to families and weekend adventurers who need versatile cargo room.
The provided image stack (34 in total covering interior and exterior) lets potential buyers assess exactly how much floor space is freed when the 60:40 split rear seats are laid flat. While official volumetric figures are not published in the press material, the wide, nearly flat load floor visible in the pictures suggests a length sufficient for bulky items like camping gear or large suitcases. The seatbacks fold almost flush with the cargo floor, minimizing load lip obstructions.
Beyond the cargo feature, the 34-image gallery walks through the Hector Tomahawk PHEV’s design language – from the bold front grille to the connected LED tail lamps. The model is offered in 8 colors: Starry Black, Smoky Grey, Frost White, Havana Grey, Glaze Red, Dune Brown, Mint Green, and a new-for-2025 Aurora Blue. Each shade is shown in multiple lighting conditions, helping buyers visualize the SUV in real-world settings.
For a PHEV in the mid-size SUV segment, usable space is a key differentiator. The Hector Tomahawk’s battery pack (typically mounted under the floor) does not intrude significantly into the cabin – the folded seat configuration appears to preserve the same cargo length as the standard petrol variant. This is a notable advantage over some rivals where hybrid batteries eat into boot volume.
| Model | Boot Space (seats up) | Seats Folded (approx.) | Hybrid Variant? |
|---|---|---|---|
| MG Hector Tomahawk PHEV | 587 L (claimed) | ~1,400 L (est.) | Yes – PHEV |
| Hyundai Creta 1.5 Turbo | 433 L | 1,200 L | No (mild hybrid only) |
| Kia Seltos 1.5 GDi | 433 L | 1,200 L | No |
| Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder Strong Hybrid | 373 L | 1,000 L (est.) | Yes – Strong Hybrid |
The Hector Tomahawk beats the competition both in standard boot volume and in estimated folded capacity, thanks to its longer wheelbase and clever packaging.
The PHEV pairs a 1.5L turbo petrol engine with an electric motor, delivering a combined output of about 210 hp and a claimed electric-only range of 55 km (WLTP). The lithium-ion battery is placed under the rear seat, not the boot floor – a design choice that directly contributes to the preserved cargo space shown in the folded seat images. MG quotes a fuel economy figure of 50 km/l in hybrid mode, making it one of the most efficient SUVs in its class.
The MG Hector Tomahawk PHEV’s rear split seat folded configuration proves that hybrid practicality need not be compromised. With 34 high-resolution images, 8 color options, and a cargo floor that rivals non-hybrid competitors, this SUV stands out as a versatile family vehicle. For buyers in India (and potentially other markets), the visual evidence from MG’s official gallery provides confidence that the PHEV can handle both daily commutes and weekend hauling duties.
