MG just launched the Hector Plus and now they're readying themselves for yet another SUV. This time aiming in the territory of Ford Endeavour and Toyota Fortuner. The product name is Gloster and MG is expected to launch this product around Diwali. We caught a video of the Gloster doing rounds on Gurgaon roads near its flagship showroom.
In this video, as you can see the SUV looks huge. MG Gloster packs in amazing features and a huge engine. A powerful one in its segment. Sharing details on the engine, the SUV packs in a huge 2.0-litre twin-turbo diesel engine under the hood which makes as much as 215 bhp with a peak torque of 480 Nm. This engine gets mated to an eight-speed torque converter gearbox.
Interesting highlight is that the SUV gets multiple driving modes too and we can also expect terrain response system, on-demand four wheel drive system and among others. Like the engine which is massive in the segment, its features get much more interesting.

From the pictures you can make out some of the highlights like the quad exhaust, huge diamond cut alloy wheels, chrome garnish on the door handles, window belt line and between the two taillights. There's also Gloster badging at the rear hihglighting its presence on the road.
Unlike its rivals, this one will get three-zone climate control. That means, driver, co-driver as well as the rear seat passenger can control the temperature according to themselves. Another highlight is the adaptive cruise control which we have seen in the premium luxury cars.
What it does is that it sets its speed with the vehicle infront of you and carries on with the same speed. This ensures that if the front vehicle is braking, your Gloster automatically slows down and if the forward vehicle increases the speed then your SUV too will follow the same.

In terms of dimension, the length of the MG Gloster measures 5,005 mm, width sticks to 1,932 mm and height at 1,875 mm. The wheelbase of the upcoming MG Gloster measures at 2,950 mm. In terms of comparison with the popular Toyota Fortuner, MG Gloster not only wins in terms of features but also in the dimensions. The Gloster is as huge as the BMW X5.
Other features of the Gloster includes a huge panoramic sunroof, 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system and it is expected to carry the connected technology like the Hector.
With all these features and safety aids, the price will surely go up. Ou bets stick between Rs 29 lakh to Rs 36 lakh in order to gel well with its competition and to ignite humoungous sales. The car is launching in few weeks and then we can see what is the actual price!
