After its debut at the Bharat Mobility Expo earlier this year, MG Motor is now gearing up to launch the Majestor SUV in India. While the brand has remained tight-lipped since the unveil, the Majestor is expected to arrive in the coming month, possibly by mid-May 2025. The SUV will also be offered in a new black exterior shade, in addition to the white version showcased earlier.
Exterior
The MG Majestor is essentially a refreshed version of the Gloster, carrying forward its full-size, three-row SUV proportions with more aggressive styling. At the front, it features a large, upright octagonal grille that sets a bold tone. Flanking the grille are sleek LED daytime running lights and vertically stacked LED headlights that give the SUV a modern, upscale appearance.
Moving to the rear, the Majestor gets wraparound LED tail lamps connected by an LED light bar, a design touch that adds visual width. Spy shots and test mule sightings also reveal the ‘MAJESTOR’ badging boldly spread across the tailgate. The rear bumper maintains a chunky design and houses dual chrome-tipped exhausts, which add a sporty flair to the otherwise premium styling.
Interior
Although MG has kept the interiors under wraps with heavily tinted windows, some upgrades can be anticipated based on the Gloster’s current feature set. The Majestor is expected to come with a new free-standing 12.3-inch infotainment screen and a fully digital instrument cluster.
Comfort features like three-zone automatic climate control, ventilated front seats with heating and massage functions, ambient lighting, and a panoramic sunroof are likely to be retained. These features would ensure that the Majestor remains a plush and tech-forward option in the full-size SUV segment.
Powertrain
Under the hood, the Majestor will be powered by the same 2.0-litre, twin-turbo diesel engine seen on the Gloster. This robust powertrain produces 213bhp and 478Nm of torque and is paired with an eight-speed automatic gearbox.
To support varied driving conditions, the SUV will also feature an intelligent 4WD system, ensuring solid traction on both highways and rough terrains. This combination of power and drivetrain capability makes the Majestor suitable for buyers looking for a big, rugged SUV with premium credentials.
Launch Timeline
While MG hasn’t officially confirmed the launch date, all signs point to a launch sometime in May 2025. The Majestor is expected to be sold alongside the current Gloster, potentially as a more premium or updated offering. Pricing and full feature details will likely be announced closer to the mid-May timeline.
