MG Motor India Unveils the Majestor SUV in the Indian Market
MG Motor India has officially launched the MG Majestor SUV in the Indian market, marking a significant entry into the premium full-size SUV segment. The vehicle was first showcased at the 2025 Bharat Mobility Expo and represents a comprehensive update over the existing Gloster model.

Additional off-road enhancements include the M-Crawl function for low-speed crawling, three differential locks, and a maximum water-wading capacity of 810 mm. The system allows for automatic switching between 2H and 4H drive settings on the fly, enhancing versatility in various conditions.
