I personal a Toyota Fortuner (first-gen), Ford Endeavour 3.2L and Mahindra Thar, and I want yet another giant SUV, which shall be each self-driven and chauffeur-driven. I lately check drove the MG Gloster and cherished the house and options it provides, however I want your opinion on whether or not it’s value shopping for. What different choices do I’ve?

Autocar India says: As you rightly talked about, the MG Gloster is a spacious SUV packed to the gills with options, which make it interesting. However, do understand that the powertrain feels a bit torpid and unresponsive, which may hamper the driving expertise, particularly within the metropolis. So do take a protracted check drive within the metropolis and if it fits your driving type, it’s possible you’ll go forward and buy it.

Another possibility is the Toyota Fortuner (or Legender), which feels way more highly effective compared and, like your first-gen Fortuner, it’s going to be a tricky and dependable SUV. Compared to the MG although, its steering is heavier, journey is bumpier and it is not as well-equipped both.

We’d strongly suggest check driving the Skoda Kodiaq, which, though a bit smaller, feels far nicer to drive, and is comfier and extra luxurious than the MG and Toyota.
