The hike could be due to rising input costs.
Increment ranges from Rs 50,000 to Rs 80,000, with the top-spec Savvy seeing the highest hike.
The Gloster now retails from Rs 29.98 lakh to Rs 36.88 lakh (ex-showroom).
It rivals the Ford Endeavour, Toyota Fortuner, and Mahindra Alturas G4.

The price of the base-spec 7-seater Super remains unchanged, at Rs 29.98 lakh. The price hike ranges from Rs 50,000 to Rs 80,000, with the Top-spec seeing the highest increase. MG hasn’t mentioned any specific reason for this hike, but we suspect it could be due to increased input costs.
One of the highlights of MG’s flagship full-size SUV is that it’s the only one in its segment to feature captain seats for middle row occupants. Besides, it gets level 1 autonomous driving tech, including autonomous emergency braking, park assist, adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, and forward collision warning.

It is a feature-loaded offering with a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPay, connected car tech, ambient lighting, a 12-speaker sound system, heated and ventilated front seats, a panoramic sunroof, and a powered driver’s seat with massage function.
The Gloster is powered by two diesel engines with a 2.0-litre displacement. The difference being one is a single-turbo mill pushing 163PS and 375Nm to the rear wheels, while the other is a twin-turbo motor delivering 218PS and 470Nm driving all four wheels. Both engines are paired to an 8-speed automatic transmission.
The MG Gloster continues to rival the likes of the Ford Endeavour, Toyota Fortuner, and Mahindra Alturas G4.
