The MG Majestor is an all-new flagship SUV from MG Motor India, scheduled for official launch on February 12, 2026, with teasers already revealing its bold road presence and modern design cues. Positioned above the existing MG Gloster in MG’s lineup, the Majestor is engineered to compete directly with premium body-on-frame SUVs like the Toyota Fortuner Legender and other flagship rivals. This new model is being introduced as India’s first “D+ segment” SUV, which means it’s larger and more premium than typical D-segment SUVs currently on sale, boasting a commanding stance, tallest and widest dimensions in its class, and a distinctive Majestic Matrix front grille with sharp split-headlamps and falcon-type DRLs.

Under the hood, the MG Majestor is expected to be powered by a 2.0-litre four-cylinder diesel engine paired with an 8-speed automatic gearbox, offering robust performance for both on-road and off-road driving. According to reports, the engine’s output is likely around 216 PS of power and up to 480 Nm of torque in the higher tune, with 4×4 drive capability available — making it suitable for rugged terrains as well as highway cruising. This powertrain setup is similar to the internationally sold Maxus D90/Gloster platform, which the Majestor builds upon but with significant design and feature enhancements.

Inside, the Majestor is expected to feature a premium and technology-rich cabin, with a large free-floating 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, an all-digital instrument cluster, a panoramic sunroof, and a suite of advanced comfort features including ventilated/heated seats with massaging functionality, three-zone climate control, and a high-end audio system. Connectivity and convenience will likely be strong points, with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, wireless charging, and connected car tech anticipated across higher trims. On the safety and driver-assistance front, Level-2 ADAS features such as adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, blind-spot monitoring, and a 360° camera setup are expected to be offered, elevating the Majestor’s appeal in the premium SUV segment.

In terms of pricing, the MG Majestor is expected to be priced in a “premium” range, with estimates around ₹40–₹50 lakh (ex-showroom) in India for the base and higher trims, while some publications suggest starting prices could be closer to ₹46 lakh for the initial variants. Final pricing may vary by city and feature level at launch. With its combination of commanding dimensions, powerful diesel engine, advanced tech and safety suite, and luxurious interior features, the MG Majestor is being positioned as a serious challenger in India’s full-size SUV market — appealing to buyers who want more space, capability, and premium features than typical mid-size SUVs.

The 2025 Tata Tiago is Tata Motors’ flagship entry-level hatchback in India, known for its solid build quality, practicality, and safety. For 2025 it receives a subtle refresh with minor exterior tweaks like a sharper front grille, LED headlamps with DRLs, and a shark-fin antenna, while still keeping its compact hatchback silhouette ideal for city driving. Inside, the Tiago offers a more modern cabin with updates like a new multifunction steering wheel, a larger touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, TPMS (tyre-pressure monitoring), cruise control, and multiple USB charging ports — enhancing comfort and tech for drivers and passengers alike. Safety is a strong focus: the Tiago carries a 4-star Global NCAP adult safety rating with dual front airbags, ABS with EBD, ESC & hill-hold assist on higher trims, making it one of the safer cars in its class.

Under the hood, the 2025 Tiago sticks with Tata’s reliable 1.2-litre Revotron three-cylinder petrol engine, paired with either a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed AMT automatic gearbox. The petrol unit delivers around 86 PS of power and 113 Nm of torque, offering responsive performance suited for city and highway use while maintaining good fuel efficiency (around ~20 km/l in petrol form depending on variant and driving conditions). A CNG (iCNG) option is also available on many trims, improving running cost with mileage figures often above 25 km/kg, making it attractive for budget-conscious buyers. Beyond internal combustion options, Tata also offers an electric Tiago EV with battery options that provide an estimated range of around 250 km (medium range) to about 315 km (long range) on a single charge, with features like automatic climate control, cruise control, and a single-speed automatic motor setup.

In terms of variants and pricing, the 2025 Tiago range is broad to suit different needs and budgets. Petrol and CNG versions start from approximately ₹5.8 lakh on-road for base trims like XE and go up to around ₹9.8 lakh for fully-loaded CNG/AMT versions in many cities. If you’re considering the Tiago EV, its on-road prices typically range from around ₹9.1 lakh for the medium-range base variant up to about ₹12.9 lakh for top-end long-range versions. These prices make the Tiago one of the most competitively priced hatchbacks in India, especially considering the level of tech, safety, and efficiency it offers.

Across the lineup, the Tiago is presented in multiple trims — including XE, XM, XT, XZ and XZ+ — each adding progressively more features such as larger infotainment screens (up to ~10.25″), LED lights, alloy wheels, rear parking camera, automatic climate control, and additional safety gear on higher trims. With its compact dimensions, generous feature list, practical engine options (petrol, CNG, and EV), and strong safety credentials, the 2025 Tata Tiago continues to be a compelling choice for first-time car buyers, urban commuters, and anyone seeking a value-packed hatchback.

The Kia K4 Hatchback (2026 model year) is Kia’s new compact hatch designed to give the K4 sedan’s tech and styling in a more practical shape. Compared with the sedan, the hatch keeps the same front-end look up to the C-pillars, but the rear is shorter and shaped for a liftgate, making it feel sportier and more versatile for everyday use. Even with the shorter overall length, early reports highlight that the hatchback can offer more usable cargo room than the sedan thanks to the taller, more accessible rear opening.

On the powertrain side, the K4 Hatchback mirrors the K4 sedan lineup. The standard engine is a 2.0-liter four-cylinder making 147 hp, paired with a CVT and driving the front wheels. If you want more punch, the GT-Line Turbo upgrades to a 1.6-liter turbo four with 190 hp and an 8-speed automatic (a conventional automatic, not a CVT), giving it stronger acceleration and a more “normal” sporty feel in daily driving.

Where the K4 Hatchback aims to stand out is the blend of interior space + modern cabin tech. Kia’s official materials highlight an available Digital Cockpit with a 29.6-inch combined display, plus a roomy interior focus (including strong rear-seat legroom messaging). Practicality is a big part of the pitch too: outlets note around 22.2 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats up and up to about 59 cubic feet with the seats folded, which is big for this class and exactly why hatchbacks still have fans.

Trim and pricing info has also started to land. Kia has publicly announced pricing for the 2026 K4 Hatchback, positioning it as a stylish alternative to compact rivals like the Civic hatch/Mazda3/Corolla/Impreza crowd while still aiming for value. Some coverage has cited pricing in the mid-$20k to around $30k range depending on trim and options, but the exact out-the-door number will vary by destination, packages, and dealer add-ons.
