Features On Offer

All these Storm Editions retain all the features of the Savvy variant, featuring a 12.3-inch infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a fully digital driver’s display, a panoramic sunroof, a ventilated driver’s seat, a powered tailgate, a 360-degree camera, and Level-2 advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) suite, including lane-keep assist, adaptive cruise control, emergency braking, and more.

No Mechanical Changes

The MG Gloster Desertstorm and Snowstorm Editions get the same 2-litre twin-turbo diesel engine as the standard model with 215PS and 478Nm output. It comes mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission and an all-wheel-drive train (AWD).

The standard model also gets a 161PS 2-litre single turbo-diesel engine, mated to a rear-wheel-drive (RWD) drivetrain.

Author’s Take

The new Snowstorm and Desertstorm variants in the MG Gloster’s Storm lineup aim to boost its appeal, which has lagged behind its rival, the Toyota Fortuner. These special editions offer unique styling, making them a compelling choice ahead of the upcoming facelift version.
