Picture yourself on the busy roads of India in an SUV more rugged than the Fortuner yet sleeker than the Kodiaq. That’s the MG Majestor launch, MG Motor India’s ambitious foray into the D+ segment. Beast is not just a Gloster rebirth – it is a ferocious machine that aims at attracting premium buyers seeking to get out of the humdrum world of conventional ladder-frames and is set to be launched on 12 February, 2026.
Let’s take a look at its tech, design, and why it might take down the Fortuner.
MG’s Smart Play in the SUV Wars
MG is all set now. Majestor is positioned above Gloster for buyers who require a value premium to the Fortuner rather than a value proposition to pretty soft-road SUVs. Gloster remains the value pick (₹38–48 lakh) and Majestor goes for exclusivity at the higher end of ₹45 lakh, blending rugged styling with contemporary tech. MG’s unambiguous push to reimagine value luxury.
Exterior Design: Majestic Muscle on Wheels
Bold Front Fascia That Demands Respect
Discard Gloster’s gentle curves—the Majestor’s huge block-shaped grille yells superiority, feeding its twin-turbo engine with black-chrome embellishments. Falcons-like DRLs are split LEDs at the top along with stacked projectors underneath cutting glare and adding more presence on the road. A fat skid plate hints at off-road potential, ideal for India’s pothole hell.
Dimensions of the SUV
- It’s bigger in size as it is 5,046 mm long with height of 1,876 mm and the wheelbase is 2,950 mm
- Taller than Kodiaq and longer than Fortuner
- Bold, boxy design with squared wheel arches
- Diamond-cut alloy wheels in 19-inch
- Range Rover lookalike styling
- Fender vent adds a premium touch

Interior: Tech-Luxe Haven for Long Hauls
There is a stylish dual 12.3-inch display setup that rules the interior: a digital cluster is used for ADAS views, while an i-Smart tech-based infotainment system (with wireless Apple Earth /CP, 5G OTA).
Seating Comfort for a Long Rides
Choose from 6- or 7-seater configurations with ventilated captain’s seats in the second row and a driver’s seat offering 12-way power adjustment, memory function, heating, ventilation, and massage—Fortuner, who? Tri-zone AC, PM2.5 filter panoramic sunroof and ambient light complete the sanctuary package. ANC and acoustic glass mute the diesel drone for tranquil takata.
Engine and Powertrain Features
The twin-turbocharged 2.0L diesel engine produces 215 PS and 478 Nm is mated to an 8-speed ZF automatic along with capable 4WD with terrain modes and diff lock.
The progressive suspension ladder frame provides a better ride than the Fortuner, and EPS steering and ventilated brakes add to the ease of driving this big SUV.
MG Majestor launch with Upgraded Safety and ADAS
Level 2 ADAS includes adaptive cruise control, AEB, lane assist, blind-spot warning and driver fatigue alert. Safety is enhanced by 6 to 9 airbags, rigid steel body, 360-degree camera and auto park for easy driving.
Conclusion
MG Majestor launch is biggest launch in India. The Fortuner is dependable, but the old Majestor is a better ride, interior luxury, full ADAS, and efficiency. Higher power per litre gives an edge to Toyota’s 2.8L, at a more aggressive price.
MG’s building that with JSW muscle. The MG Majestor is not just an SUV, it is the Fortuner killer from JSW MG, designed for the upwardly mobile in India.
