MG Gloster has been officially launched in India at a starting price of 28.98 lakh (ex showroom, introductory). The massive SUV is the fourth offering from the company here after Hector, ZS EV and Hector Plus and while it has shown off its capabilities on and off the road while promising a connected and comfortable cabin, it is its price point that is likely to be its biggest weapon against established rivals.

Base Gloster has been priced at 28.98 lakh which makes it cheaper by around a lakh when compared to the price of the base Endeavour variant. The top variants of both SUVs in diesel are relatively similarly priced, difference of around 28,000 in favour of Ford.
