Available in 4x2 & 4X2 Options
The MJ Majestor has been launched in India at a starting price of Rs 40.99 lakhs for the 4x2 variant, whereas the 4X4 model is priced at Rs 44.99 lakhs ex-showroom with a few unique bells and whistles. With its sheer size, the MG Majestor's immense footprint is an absolute head-turner. Stretching past the five-meter mark, it comfortably stakes its claim as one of the largest and most imposing SUVs in its class.
This model aggressively dials up its road presence over the Gloster, boasting a significantly stretched wheelbase and a wider, more muscular stance. To cater to diverse buyer lifestyles, the cabin is configurable in both executive six-seat and versatile seven-seat layouts, while clever packaging ensures that practical, usable cargo space remains fully intact even with all three rows occupied. Also, the model offers a segment-first triple differential lock, which aims to heighten its off-road capabilities by a serious margin.
MG Majestor: Interior & Features
Inside the cabin, the MG Majestor creates a black-themed premium sanctuary layered with soft-touch leather materials and customizable 64-colour ambient lighting. Comfort and convenience are highlighted by front ventilated and massaging seats, a 12-way power-adjustable driver's seat with memory/welcome function, and an 8-way power-adjustable co-driver's seat. Overhead, a panoramic sunroof adds an airy sense of space to the massive cabin, which is available in both executive 6-seater and versatile 7-seater configurations.
The tech cockpit centers around a dual 12.3-inch high-definition display that integrates wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Audiophiles are treated to a premium 12-speaker JBL surround-sound system, while convenience items like dual wireless smartphone chargers, a 3-zone automatic climate control system, a 220V power outlet, and over 75 iSMART connected car features aims to offer a sophisticated ownership experience.
As for the safety suite, the Majestor is equipped with Level 2 ADAS, which provides assisted steering, braking, and acceleration. Additional features include a 360-degree HD camera, ESP with ABS, EBD, TCS, and more. The MAJESTOR is available in four colour options - Pearl White, Concrete Grey, Metal Black, and Metal Ash.
MG Majestor: Powertrain
Under the hood, the Majestor relies on a potent twin-turbo diesel engine engineered to deliver a best-in-segment 215.5 PS of maximum power and a massive 478.5 Nm of peak torque. This powerplant is mated to a 8-speed automatic transmission, available across both 2WD and advanced 4WD drive layouts. While the 4x2 variant is optimized for smooth, effortless highway cruising, the 4x4 iteration is built for hardcore off-road recovery.
It stands as the first in its segment to feature Triple Differential Locks (front, rear, and centre) alongside an advanced Crawl Control mode, backed by a 4WD system offering 10 off-road terrain modes, a respectable 219 mm ground clearance, and a 810 mm water wading capability. In day-to-day driving, its intelligent Auto Mode runs in 2WD for maximum efficiency, instantly shifting to 4WD when it detects wheel slip on rain, ice, or loose mud.
Pricing & MG Shield Warranty
| Variant & Trim Configuration | Ex-Showroom Price |
| MG Majestor 4x2 Automatic Top Trim | INR 40.99 Lakh |
| MG Majestor 4x4 Automatic Top Trim | INR 44.99 Lakh |
JSW MG Motor India has positioned the Majestor aggressively against existing premium competitors, offering competitive introductory pricing alongside an assured buyback program that promises up to 70% residual value down the line. Ownership is backed by the comprehensive MG SHIELD after-sales program. This package bundle includes a 3-year/unlimited-kilometer warranty, 3 years of pan-India Roadside Assistance, and 3 labor-free periodic services. Buyers can also choose to tailor their coverage via customizable Protect pre-paid maintenance plans. The vehicle is available in four paint shades: Pearl White, Concrete Grey, Metal Black, and Metal Ash.
Verdict
With the launch of the Majestor, MG India has delivered a calculated, high-impact blow to the premium full-size SUV segment. By introducing a vehicle that is physically larger than its rivals, the Majestor establishes an incredibly strong value proposition. It seamlessly bridges the gap between everyday luxury and hardcore off-road recovery hardware, offering tech-focused buyers a first-class, Level 2 ADAS-equipped cabin, while giving enthusiasts a highly capable twin-turbo powertrain with segment-first triple differential locks. How well cn it do when it goes head-to-head with the Fortuner is still something that only time can tell, as the Gloster, when launched, could not make any serious dent in the sales of its arch Toyota rival.
