MG has launched a new, Savvy variant of its flagship premium Gloster SUV with ADAS and 4×4 systems. This variant is offered in 6 and 7-seat configurations and will be sold as the new range-topping trim. The prime highlights of the Savvy variant include Level 1 ADAS (Advanced Driving Assistance System) features and an improved 4×4 drive system with 7 drive modes to choose from. The MG Gloster competes against the giants, Toyota Fortuner and Ford Endeavour in our market. These two have been around for ages in India and have a loyal fanbase. For most off-roading enthusiasts, either the Fortuner or the Endeavour is a default choice in the segment.
