First revealed at the 2016 Auto Guangzhou, the Baojun 510 got a mid-cycle upgrade last year. The compact SUV is 4,220 mm long; 1,740 mm wide and 1,615 mm high, which is slightly smaller than the Hyundai Creta which has the respective dimensions figures of 4,270 mm; 1,780mm and 1,665 mm. The Baojun 510 comes with a 2,550-mm wheelbase, a little bit shorter than the Creta with a 2,590-mm one. Some of the most prominent outstanding features include the unique 'Future Eye' LED DRLs, which makes the face look bold and a twin-light arrangement, which reminds us of the MG Hector.

The Baojun 510 SUV is expected to be another SUV from MG Motors for the Indian auto market. While MG Motors has not confirmed anything about the launch of the Baojun 510 SUV in India, with these spy images, it is likely to take place soon. MG Motors is ready to enter the Indian auto market with the launch of a medium SUV based on the Baojun 530, the MG Hector in mid-2019. It will be highly localized to keep the price down and manufactured at the Halol plant of the company in Gujarat. The next vehicle for India is anticipated to be an electric SUV.
