MG has unveiled the Majestor as its new flagship SUV for India. While it is based on the Gloster and shares the same ladder-frame platform and diesel powertrain, the Majestor is positioned as a more premium and capable offering. Compared to the Gloster, it brings noticeable updates to the cabin, adds more comfort features and introduces serious off-road hardware.
Here’s a look at the key features the MG Majestor gets over the Gloster.
1. Larger digital displays
The Majestor gets upgraded screens inside the cabin. It gets a new 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system along with a fully digital 12.3-inch instrument cluster. In comparison, the Gloster features a 12.3-inch infotainment screen paired with a smaller 8-inch multi-information display, making the Majestor’s digital setup more expansive and modern.
2. Massaging front seats
While the Gloster already offers powered and ventilated front seats, the Majestor adds heating and massage functions. This upgrade is aimed at improving long-distance comfort, especially for buyers who spend a lot of time on highways.
3. Dual wireless phone chargers and upgraded audio
The Majestor adds a second wireless charging pad up front; the Gloster offered just one. This has been made possible by relocating the gear selector from the centre console to the steering column. It also gets a 12-speaker JBL sound system that offers better sound quality than the setup in the Gloster.
4. Triple differential locks
The most significant mechanical upgrade over the Gloster is the addition of differential locks at the front, centre and rear. In comparison, the Gloster gets only an electro-mechanical rear differential lock and depends largely on electronic traction control. The Majestor’s triple-lock setup offers much stronger traction in low-grip conditions, making it far more capable off-road.
5. Ten off-road drive modes
MG has expanded the Majestor’s terrain management system, and it now offers 10 off-road drive modes. In comparison, the Gloster offers seven driving modes. The added modes allow the Majestor to better tailor its systems for surfaces such as sand, mud and rocks, giving the driver finer control in difficult conditions.
6. Low-range transfer case
Unlike the Gloster, the Majestor comes equipped with a low-range transfer case. This allows the SUV to better manage steep climbs, rocky surfaces and slow-speed off-road driving by delivering torque more effectively to the wheels. MG claims that the Majestor has a maximum water-wading capacity of up to 810mm.
7. Crawl mode (M-Crawl)
The Majestor adds a crawl function that manages throttle and braking at very low speeds, helping the driver tackle tough terrain more easily.
Bookings for the MG Majestor are currently open at Rs 41,000. Prices will be announced in April, with customer deliveries scheduled to begin in May 2026. Once launched, the Majestor will replace the Gloster as MG’s flagship ICE SUV in India.
