JSW MG Motor India has unveiled MG ADAPT (Advanced Drive Architecture Platform Technology). According to the company, it is India’s first multi-New Energy Vehicle (NEV) platform. The modular architecture is designed to support Electric Vehicles (EVs), Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs), Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) and Range Extender Electric Vehicles (REEVs) under a single framework. The company has confirmed that one EV and one PHEV model will be launched on the platform by FY 2026-27.
According to the company, the MG ADAPT platform integrates a dedicated hybrid engine, a dedicated battery system, India’s first 10-in-1 intelligent electric drive unit and what the company describes as the world’s first electromagnetic dedicated hybrid transmission. These systems are managed by an intelligent energy management system that automatically switches between four drive modes Pure Electric Drive, Series Hybrid Drive, Parallel Hybrid Drive and Engine Direct Drive based on driving conditions.
In the REEV configuration, the electric motor powers the wheels at all times, while the petrol engine functions solely as a generator to recharge the battery. The company said this technology is designed to extend driving range while maintaining an electric-first driving experience.
Anurag Mehrotra, Managing Director of JSW MG Motor India, said the platform will give customers the flexibility to choose an energy solution based on their requirements without compromising on performance and efficiency. He described MG ADAPT as a significant milestone in the company’s New Energy Vehicle strategy and the technological foundation for future products.
JSW MG Motor India is a joint venture formed between SAIC Motor and JSW Group in 2023. The company’s manufacturing facility in Halol, Gujarat, has an annual production capacity of more than 100,000 vehicles.
