Morris Garages recently released a couple of teasers of its upcoming Gloster 7-seater premium SUV. It will be the flagship SUV from the British carmaker in the country that’s estimated to cost around Rs 35 lakh (ex-showroom). Sources in the know tell us that the MG Gloster will be launched in the month of October.
Ahead of its official price announcement, the carmaker has confirmed that its new 7-seater SUV will be packed with several segment-first safety features including autonomous emergency braking (AEB)system, park assist, lane keeping assist and adaptive cruise control.
The adaptive cruise control, which is usually offered on high-end luxury cars, monitors the road via cameras, laser and radar and helps maintaining a preset distance from the car in front. The autonomous emergency braking system detects an imminent frontal collision and automatically applies brakes. It also provides visual and audio alerts to driver when it senses a potential impact.
