At least three new SUVs are coming to MG showrooms in India this year, including both ICE and electrified models
It’s been well over a year since JSW MG Motor introduced the MG Majestor at Auto Expo 2025, and the company is finally set to bring it to showrooms. The Indo-Chinese joint venture also plans to launch pure electric and hybrid models this year.
In a recent interview with Pune Times Mirror, Anurag Mehrotra, the Managing Director of JSW MG Motor, confirmed that the company will launch the MG Majestor later this month. The new Toyota Fortuner rival is a facelifted version of the MG Gloster and packs comprehensive upgrades.
The MG Majestor features a noticeably brawnier exterior with a newly designed front-end, featuring a massive radiator grille, a prominent skid plate, split headlamps, and a muscular bumper. New 19-inch alloy wheels, a chunky rear skid plate, and connected tail lamps complete the refreshed look on the outside.

Inside, the Majestor comes with upgrades such as a redesigned dashboard, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, a new 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a dual wireless smartphone charger, new front seats with an 8-point massage, ventilation, and heating functions, and a steering column-mounted gear selector.
The Majestor is much more capable in off-roading than the Gloster, thanks to the inclusion of a low-range transfer case. While the old model had an electro-mechanical locking differential at the rear, the new one has a mechanical one. There are locking differentials at the front and in the centre as well, which the old model lacked. The engine is the familiar 2.0-litre twin-turbo diesel unit, mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission.

Further into the interview, Mehrotra said that JSW MG Motor plans to launch an electric SUV and a hybrid model later this year. He was likely referring to the product internally called ‘MG 520’, derived from the Wuling Starlight 560 SUV that is manufactured in 5- and 7-seat versions and offered with plug-in hybrid and pure electric powertrains internationally.
The rebadged version in India is said to be offered in both the electrified variants and challenge the Mahindra XUV 7XO, Mahindra XEV 9S, Tata Safari, and Tata Safari.ev. In China, the plug-in hybrid variant delivers a CLTC range of up to 125 kilometres in EV mode, and the pure electric variant can travel up to 500 kilometres on a single charge, also as per WLTP.
