MG Majestor launched in India at Rs 40.99 lakh with twin turbo diesel engine

MG Motor India has pulled the wraps off the all‑new MG Majestor, its flagship D+ segment SUV for buyers who want more space, presence, and technology from their next upgrade. Launched today in Gurugram, the Majestor promises a blend of imposing design, serious off‑road hardware, and premium comfort, aimed squarely at full‑size ladder‑frame rivals in the Indian SUV space.

Positioned as India’s first D+ SUV, the Majestor arrives with two fully loaded automatic variants: a 4x2 priced at Rs 40.99 lakh and a 4x4 at Rs 44.99 lakh (ex‑showroom) in India. Both versions use a twin‑turbo diesel engine paired with an 8‑speed automatic gearbox, promising effortless cruising, strong towing ability, and confident highway performance for large families across cities and challenging terrains alike.

Updated Design and Styling

While looking at the car, the dimensions speak as 5,046 mm long, 2,016 mm wide, and 1,870 mm tall. The 2026 MG Majestor comfortably outstretches most mainstream SUVs, backed by a substantial 2,950 mm wheelbase. Those numbers should translate into generous cabin space across all three rows, especially for buyers who often travel with extended family or prefer chauffeur‑driven comfort.

Styling‑wise, the SUV leans into its size with an upright stance, a bold Mosaic Matrix grille, Dragon Eyes LED DRLs, tri‑beam headlamps, connected LED taillamps, and a raised hood line, all sitting on 19‑inch alloy wheels. The overall look is deliberately assertive yet polished, designed to stand out equally in urban settings and on long‑distance highway runs.

Interiors and Features

Inside, the 2026 MG Majestor adopts a dark, premium theme, with plush leather upholstery and ventilated, massaging front seats, including a 12‑way powered driver seat with memory and an 8‑way powered front passenger seat. A panoramic sunroof, 64‑color ambient lighting, and three‑zone climate control further boost its upmarket feel.

The tech package is equally ambitious: twin 12.3‑inch screens, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a 12‑speaker JBL surround‑sound audio layout, dual wireless phone chargers, and a 220V power outlet headline the equipment list. MG’s iSMART suite adds 75‑plus connected features, ensuring the Majestor meets expectations of always‑online, feature‑rich SUVs in this price band.

Powertrain & Performance

​Under the hood sits a twin‑turbo diesel engine that develops a segment‑best 215.5 PS and 478.5 Nm of torque, mated to an 8‑speed automatic transmission. MG claims this setup balances performance and refinement, ensuring relaxed cruising even when the Majestor is fully loaded with passengers and luggage.

The advanced 4WD system brings 10 dedicated off‑road modes, allowing the SUV to tailor its responses to surfaces ranging from loose gravel to deep mud. In Auto mode, it runs in 2WD during normal driving to aid efficiency and automatically shifts power to all four wheels when slip is detected, which should be especially reassuring in heavy rain or on broken surfaces.

Updated Safety Suites

Safety is a core pillar, with Level 2 ADAS bringing assisted steering, braking, and acceleration functions to help reduce driver fatigue on long journeys. The package is complemented by a 360‑degree HD camera, ESP with ABS, EBD, traction control, and roll‑movement intervention, underlining MG’s intent to offer active as well as passive protection.

Four exterior colors are on offer at launch – Pearl White, Concrete Grey, Metal Black, and Metal Ash. Standard benefits include a three‑year unlimited‑kilometer warranty, three years of roadside assistance, and three labor‑free periodic services, with optional extended warranty, pre‑paid maintenance packs, and an assured buyback program promising up to 70 percent value for added peace of mind.
