The rear showcases a sleek light strip connecting the taillights, emphasizing its bold design.
While the interior remains shrouded in secrecy, MG’s collaboration with Maxus hints at a elegant cockpit featuring a large, 12.3-inch touchscreen display. Expect a high level of comfort and convenience, potentially including features like a heated and ventilated driver’s seat with massage functionality, three-zone climate control, a premium audio system with 12 speakers, and an impressive suite of advanced driver-assistance systems.
Powering this impressive SUV is rumored to be a potent 2-liter, four-cylinder turbocharged gasoline engine, generating 160 kW (218 hp) and a peak torque of 480 Nm. This impressive powerplant is expected to be paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and an all-wheel-drive system, promising exceptional performance both on and off the road. Adding to its off-road capabilities, the Majestor is built on a robust ladder frame, a construction method typically found in dedicated off-road vehicles.
Set to launch in India this spring, the MG majestor is poised to make a significant impact on the market, anticipated to start around 1.1 million crowns.
This new addition to MG’s lineup boasts a robust yet elegant aesthetic. Its commanding stature on the road is further enhanced by advanced features and a luxurious interior.
