With the new Cloud EV, MG Motor is all set to expand its electric vehicle range in India. Upon launch, the Cloud EV is anticipated to be the brand's flagship electric vehicle, sitting above the ZS EV in the India lineup. This will make it the third electric vehicle in MG's India lineup, following the ZS. The forthcoming product, anticipated to land on our shores later this year, was recently spotted testing again. The spy photos, which feature the new MG Cloud EV in heavy camouflage, don't reveal much about the vehicle. When the Cloud EV arrives in September this year, it should cost more than Rs 30 lakh (ex-showroom).
