Front Fascia
Rear Looks
Yes - MG Gloster looks Longer, Wider and Taller as against Toyota Fortuner and even is actually Longest, Widest and Tallest SUV in the segment
Positives
In nutshell its awesome
Most powerful 2 Litre Twin Turbo Diesel Engine with 215 BHP Power and 480 NM Torque in 8 Speed Automatic Transmission with Exceptional Mid range. Not only Powerful but the best part of Gloster is Ride and Handling.
Impeccable Suspension Dynamics or rather should say nearly the benchmark. it just glide on bad roads as what to levels close to the best. Drive on broken roads, drive on sand, mud, city – absolute spot on
Despite of SUV been mammoth size of 5 Meter - Very Light Steering at low speed and its feather in terms of turning car, you will simply love the ride experience of Gloster and for parking in easily comes Auto Park Assist feature.
Aiding on for Enthusiastic drivers is what Paddle Shifters for experiencing the very fun of this Automatic Transmission. Steering is accurate, brakes spot
Negatives
Only downside is that theres a definite turbo lag under 2000 rpm and at the beginning or when taking from standstill - it feels that your Panther is taking time to wake up but all that lag goes away as mid range is awesome.
Been a Tall SUV, body roll yes is definite there for the SUV of this kind due to raised Ground Clearance and height factor
Positives
Driver and Co-Passenger Seats are well comfy. Comes with Electric Driver Seat with Massage Function with good lumbar support, under-thigh support and will love in MG Gloster Seats
2nd Row seats are what one among best points. They are captain seats which you can slide, recline and adjust to best seating position with Independent Armrest. Seats are well comfy
Even ingress and Egress is very easy for 3rd Row. You can enter in 3rd Row either from Gap between 2 Captain row seats on 2nd Row or Tumble in 2nd Row and enter in 3rd Row with Ease
3rd Row seats are roomier enough to accommodate 2 adults (though it’s still best suited to some one with average build and height of 5'4"), and there is still adequate room for luggage with all three rows in use with almost 350 Litre Boot Space. 3rd Row too comes with Adjustable Head Restraints
Negatives
Although 1st Row and 2nd Row are well comfy but Under-thigh Support on 3rd Row felt average in MG Gloster

Technology Features are awesome in MG Gloster. Its the first Autonomous Level 1 SUV of India
Although List is comprehensive but my personal favorites are
Negatives
The 12.3 Inch Touchscreen resolution and display clarity felt very average. Pixel clarity is very average
Also, i personally is not fan of Voice Command. It although looks cool at the first instance but takes time a but to execute
Key Highlights are
No Complaints at all for Safety. Will be reasonable impressed with MG Gloster
MG Motor India likely to introduce Gloster with same Formula
which will all ensure Peace of Mind Ownership in MG Gloster
