Tell us about your experience

The MG Majestor gets a 2.0-litre twin-turbo diesel engine from the Gloster and uses a ladder-frame chassis. As per our review, it offers strong overtaking performance once the engine gets going, but there is noticeable turbo lag below 2,000rpm.

Key facts for the Majestor:

  • The 2.0-litre, four-cylinder diesel engine produces 215hp and 479Nm. It comes with an 8-speed automatic gearbox and paddle shifters.
  • The 2WD versions are rear-wheel drive. The 4WD version adds a low-range gearbox, front, centre and rear differential locks, M-Crawl and 10 off-road modes.
  • The SUV is 5,046mm long, 2,016mm wide and 1,870mm tall. It has a 2,950mm wheelbase and 219mm of ground clearance.
  • MG claims a water-wading depth of up to 810mm.
  • It gets 19-inch alloy wheels with 265/55 R19 tyres and disc brakes on all four wheels.
  • The 75-litre fuel tank is paired with a 343-litre boot with all rows in use. Folding the third row increases boot space to 1,350 litres.

The car looks great. I think it is a real rival to the Fortuner. The overall dimensions and size of this SUV give it a muscular appearance.

This car looks amazing and has a heart-touching style. The MG Majestor is an upcoming full-size SUV, debuting at the Auto Expo 2025 and expected to launch in late 2025. It will be a premium successor to the MG Gloster, with a refreshed design, improved features, and likely diesel engine options.

A good competitor to the Fortuner, this car is muscular and stylish. Its size is very attractive and loaded with features. This is the king among big SUVs, good job MG! My first choice is Majestor, and the second is another good MG.

This car is excellent in every way. Mileage and comfort are very good, and it comes with all sorts of safety features, which is a big plus. The seat ventilation system is especially impressive and works excellently, enhancing the overall comfort of the car.

MG Majestor has many advantages and amazing features. It boasts a big touchscreen, a digital instrument cluster, and a panoramic sunroof that gives it a modern feel. The seats are soft and comfortable for long drives, plus it has automatic climate control and a good music system for a better journey.

This car beats the Fortuner and is the best in its segment. I really like and love it! It has many extra features compared to the Toyota Fortuner, like a panoramic sunroof and ADAS. The looks are great, and long-distance travel is just awesome and very comfortable.

Driving experience is good, with lots of safety features and more. I enjoyed the 4×4; it was a good experience. But the car is quite expensive. Still, it's a good car, the best.

Too much reliance on the screen. Even when switching between modes like Sports, Eco, and Comfort, it all has to be done on the screen. Driving quality is nice, feels luxurious inside. Very comfortable.

I currently own a 2017 Tata Hexa XTA automatic with 1,27,000km on the odometer and plan to replace it within the next 12 months. My key requirements are an automatic transmission, a genuinely comfortable third row for adults, excellent bad-road and hill-climbing capability, strong highway comfort for long-distance touring, and proven long-term reliability with minimal ownership headaches. The MG Majestor 4x4 is currently my leading contender, and I am happy to wait for the right vehicle rather than buying immediately. Considering my priorities, would you recommend waiting for the next-generation Toyota Fortuner, choosing the MG Majestor 4x4, or holding out for another upcoming SUV?

With a 15-year-old Hexa replacement in mind and priorities centred on adult-friendly third-row space, bad-road ability, highway comfort and, most importantly, proven long-term reliability, waiting for the next-generation Fortuner makes more sense than committing to the MG Majestor immediately. The new Fortuner is expected to make its India debut in 2027, with the familiar diesel likely to continue and a torque-converter automatic and 4WD expected.The MG Majestor 4x4 is the more sophisticated SUV on paper. Its 2.0-litre twin-turbo diesel produces a lot of power, and its cabin is also considerably more modern and premium than the current Fortuner. However, it has not yet established the long-term reliability and resale record that matters for a buyer looking at another 10-15 years of ownership. It also currently has no official Bharat NCAP crash-test rating.The current Fortuner already has a strong record for durability, resale and hassle-free ownership, although its third row is still best regarded as occasional adult seating and its ride can feel busy compared with newer SUVs. The next generation should address some of the current model's dated cabin and technology, while retaining its ladder-frame architecture and off-road focus.

I want to buy a 7- or 8-seater car. I currently own an XUV500 and am considering the Toyota Hycross, Kia Carnival, MG Majestor, and Toyota Fortuner. I am a bit confused. The Hycross lacks some premium features, the Carnival feels too long for city driving, the MG Majestor seems like the perfect choice, but I am unsure about MG's reliability and after-sales service, and the Fortuner is not very comfortable, especially in the middle and last rows. Which one would you recommend based on these requirements?

Pick the Toyota Innova HyCross. It is the only one here that is easy to drive and park in the city, yet still seats 7 or 8 in real comfort on trips. The hybrid shines in slow traffic, so your running costs drop, and it feels lighter and simpler to handle than the very long Carnival. Your comfort worry is also solved. The HyCross has a roomy middle row and a genuinely usable last row, with a comfier ride than the Fortuner’s ladder-frame setup. Your family will be happier day to day, not just on highways.You also get Toyota’s service reach and resale, which answers the trust question you have with MG. That peace of mind matters over the entire ownership period. It will not feel as plush as a Carnival or Majestor inside, and yes, you will miss out on some features, but the basics are spot on. If you still want that “limo” feel and are mostly chauffeur-driven with easy parking, the Carnival can work. For mixed city use with family comfort and low hassle, go for the HyCross.

Hello Autocar team, This question is in two parts. I am tearfully moving on from my beautiful Ford Endeavour 3.2 Titanium AT and am in the market for a new vehicle. Priorities are good ground clearance (laden), a powerful and responsive engine, and preferably a 4-by-4 or AWD. The second part is the tough one. Situated in Delhi NCR, do you think it makes sense to go for diesel again? Because my boxes are mostly ticked only by diesel powertrains, and the petrol ones are either too expensive (Kodiaq), or too small (e.g., the Jimny). Can you please help?

4WD SUVs are getting rarer by the day, but given what you're looking for, the best fit is the Mahindra Thar Roxx. For the price, it feels the closest to your Endeavour in the stuff that matters - proper 4x4 with low range, generous ground clearance even when loaded, and a strong 2.2-litre diesel that responds eagerly. The Roxx's new-gen chassis is Mahindra's best ladder frame yet, soaking up rough roads without breaking a sweat and handling highway duties reasonably well too. It's also gotten a lot more liveable than previous Thars, with genuine space, premium feel and creature comforts.There's the Jeep Compass and Meridian too, but their interiors won't feel spacious enough after your Endeavour, and on the other end are the MG Majestor and Toyota Fortuner, though those are likely to be out of budget. Of the petrols, the Kodiaq is probably the best AWD bet, but as you said, it is too expensive. A few-year-old example of any of these, however, might be a good option.On diesel in NCR, it might still make sense, if you can make your peace with the 10-year cap - and the associated resale value hit. You may see the odd winter restriction put into place, but new BS6 diesels have generally been clear of those. It's not an easy decision, but if it's for a car you'll enjoy, and you can work out a shorter ownership cycle that suits your needs, it can still work.

I'm upgrading from a 2021 Tata Safari adventure edition. I loved its looks, engine and middle row comfort. But, now I'm looking for a 7-seater car in the 40-50 lakh range (ex-showroom). The rear-most seats don't have to be very spacious, as I mostly fold them for boot space and occasionally carry a 6th passenger. I need a strong engine, good comfort for the first two rows and decently kitted out. A good speaker system is a must. I will use this car only for outstation trips. I prefer diesel cars with good road presence, but if other options are compelling, I will consider them too.

While your preference is for a diesel car, we suggest you consider the Skoda Kodiaq, which is a petrol-only model. Its 2-litre turbo-petrol engine is strong and punchy, and the SUV's good high-speed stability makes it a great road trip car. The third row is tight on space, but this shouldn't be a deal breaker given your occasional use of the last row. With the last row down, the Kodiaq offers loads of room for luggage. The Kodiaq is also well kitted out, and you'll like the sound quality from the Canton sound system. Do note, fuel economy isn't great in town, but the Kodiaq returns reasonable numbers on highway drives. If a diesel is a must, the new MG Majestor is an option for you. It's a size or two larger than your Tata Safari and scores big for road presence. The large size also means the Majestor is big on space. Performance is good, and there are also loads of features packed in. The only question mark for now is the price, but we expect it to be within your budget.
