MG Majestor: everything we know about the new Fortuner rival ahead of tomorrow’s reveal
JSW MG Motor India is gearing up to shake up the premium SUV segment with the official unveiling of its new flagship, the MG Majestor, tomorrow, February 12, 2026. After a strong showing at the 2025 Bharat Mobility Expo and several teaser campaigns, the Majestor is ready to take on the likes of the Toyota Fortuner.
Building on the foundation laid by the MG Gloster, the Majestor (known globally as the MG Rakan) aims to combine rugged off-road capability with high-end luxury.
Bold and Rugged Design
The MG Majestor moves away from the softer lines of its predecessor in favor of a more “boxy” and commanding road presence. Key design highlights include:
- Front Fascia: A large, vertical grille complemented by slim, high-mounted LED DRLs and a chunky bumper.
- Side Profile: Retains its massive ladder-frame silhouette with pronounced wheel arches and new alloy wheel designs.
- Rear: Features modern connected LED tail lamps and a prominent “MAJESTOR” badging across the tailgate.
Interior and Technology
While the official India-spec cabin will be confirmed tomorrow, international previews suggest a major leap in quality. Expect a dual-tone premium layout with a focus on three-row comfort.
Anticipated Features:
- Dual-Screen Setup: A large infotainment touchscreen paired with a fully digital driver’s display.
- Luxury Comforts: Ventilated, heated, and massaging front seats, plus three-zone climate control.
- Panoramic Sunroof: A staple for MG’s flagship models.
- Safety: Expected Level-2 ADAS suite, 360-degree cameras, and six airbags as standard.
Powertrain: Proven Diesel Performance
Under the hood, the Majestor is likely to retain the reliable 2.0-litre diesel engine from the Gloster, though MG might focus on the higher-output version to justify its flagship status.
| Engine Type | Power | Torque | Drivetrain |
| 2.0L Single-Turbo Diesel | 161 PS | 373 Nm | RWD |
| 2.0L Twin-Turbo Diesel | 215 PS | 478 Nm | 4WD |
Both engines will be mated to an 8-speed automatic torque converter transmission.
Market Positioning and Rivals
The MG Majestor is expected to be priced between Rs 45 lakh and Rs 50 lakh (ex-showroom). At this price point, it will directly challenge:
- Toyota Fortuner Legender
- Skoda Kodiaq
- Volkswagen Tayron R-Line (Upcoming)
