MG Motors was caught testing the facelift of the full-size SUV, Gloster, which competes with the Toyota Fortuner, and Jeep Meridian. The test mule was camouflaged but we’ve details on how it’s going to look.
MG Gloster Facelift: What you need to know!
When MG Motors launched the Gloster in India, it offered a very luxurious and more premium SUV experience compared to its rivals, Toyota Fortuner, and Jeep Meridian. Few Weeks ago, MG launched Black Storm edition for Gloster to boost sales in order to compete with the Fortuner in terms of sales, but no matter what you throw at Toyota, Fortuner continues to be at No.1 in sales. Now, in order to compete, MG was seen testing the Gloster Facelift in India with new features, and more butcher design.
From the spy shots, one thing is clear is that it’s a rebadged Maxus D90, or LDV D90 given if you look at the Gloster’s history. MG Gloster Facelift very identical to those models where design is concerned. Moreover, the LDV D90 was showcased earlier this year in Australia and New Zealand. So, if we take the Maxus D90 in consideration, the Gloster Facelift will feature new design for the front, and rear with significant changes to the interiors.
The Gloster Facelift has become more bigger with dimensions – 5214 MM in length, 2016 MM in width, and 1876 MM. When compared to the outgoing version, the Gloster measured – 4985 MM in length, 1926 MM in width, and 1867 MM in height. The Gloster Facelift has grew incredibly longer by 229 MM, wider by 90 MM, and taller by 9 MM. As for the wheelbase, it’s the same between the current and facelift version, and in case it’s increased, it’s likely to be because of added bodywork – front and rear.
Talking about the design, the front features massive grille with block patterns, and this grille houses two vertical LED elements which are encased by orange element for top trims. Then there is the two slim LED DRLs connected by LED light bar, and below is the tri-cube LED headlights positioned vertically which now look much better than it does on the outgoing version. The Maxus has a large logo on the bonnet, and it’s very much going to be replaced by the “Morris Garages” lettering emblem, and an MG logo at the center of the grille.
The interiors features a new infotainment system, redesigned dashboard and center console, two new rotary dials for drive modes, and 4×4 selector, but retains the slimmer AC vents, and the steering wheel. As for the powertrains, MG offers 2.2 L Single Turbo, and Twin-Turbo Engine mated to 8 Speed Torque Converter Automatic in India, and will probably continue to offer the same option.
As for launch, the Gloster could end-up launching in the mid-to-late 2024.
