MG continue to test the Gloster facelift ahead of its launch later this year. While M are yet to reveal the timeline for the launch of the 2024 Gloster, the brand continue to test the D2-segment SUV with heavy camouflage, hinting at a barrage of changes underneath. The latest spy shots give u a glimpse into the MG Gloster facelift’s all-new front and rear end and other design changes. Let’s take a look.

MG Gloster Facelift To Get Maxus LDV D90-Inspired Design

Some of you may know the MG Gloster is a rebadged version of the Maxus Lingdi (Territory). The latter is manufactured by MG’s parent company SAIC and is currently on sale in China. The Maxus SUV received a facelift in 2023 with an aggressive front end and a reworked tail section. The latest spy shots of the MG Gloster facelift suggest the D2-SUV could borrow styling elements from the updated Maxus SUV.

Like the Maxus Ligndi, the MG Gloster facelift could receive a large polygonal front grille flanked by vertical LED DRLs. The spy shot also showcases the new light cluster mounted on the front bumper. This light cluster not only houses LED high and low beam but also LED fog lamps. Lower down the bumper, expect to find black plastic cladding and a chunky faux skid plate.

The side profile looks similar to the current Gloster while the rear now features connected LED tail lamps. The tailgate of the production-spec SUV could feature ‘Gloster’ lettering lower down. The rear bumper could get a faux skid plate along with twin exhaust outlets for a rugged yet premium look.

Details regarding the MG Gloster facelift's interior remain under wraps. However, considering the close relation to the Maxus Lingdi, we might see revisions to the dashboard layout. This could include a potentially larger touchscreen infotainment system and a redesigned centre console for an enhanced user experience.

The powertrain is likely to carry over from the current MG Gloster. This means we can expect 2 options: a 2.0-litre diesel engine with a single turbo producing 161PS of power and 370Nm of torque, and a more powerful twin-turbo version generating 216PS and 479Nm of torque. Both engines will likely remain paired with the same 8-speed torque converter automatic transmission.

The MG Gloster facelift is anticipated to arrive in the Indian market sometime in the latter half of 2024. It will continue to compete with established rivals like the Toyota Fortuner, Jeep Meridian, Skoda Kodiaq, Volkswagen Tiguan, and the Hyundai Tucson.
