In summary

MG Gloster mileage ranges from 12.04 to 13.92 kmpl across its last diesel automatic configurations. The 2WD turbo-diesel offers the higher official fuel-economy figure.

  • The 2.0-litre turbo-diesel 2WD automatic delivers 13.92 kmpl.
  • The twin-turbo diesel 4WD automatic returns 12.04 kmpl.
  • Every Gloster version uses an 8-speed automatic transmission.
  • Power ranges from 161 PS to 215.5 PS.
  • Actual efficiency can change with traffic, terrain, load, speed, and four-wheel-drive use.

The Gloster was phased out in India during 2026 as MG introduced the Majestor. Its mileage data therefore applies to the outgoing Gloster rather than a currently sold new model.

The Gloster is no longer part of MG's current new-car range. If you are comparing it with a current MG model and need financing, a car loan from Bajaj Finance can support an eligible new-car purchase.

What is the official MG Gloster mileage?

The MG Gloster offers an official fuel-economy range of 12.04 to 13.92 kmpl across its last diesel configurations. The 2WD turbo-diesel automatic sits at the upper end.

The 4WD twin-turbo automatic returns 12.04 kmpl. Its additional drivetrain hardware and higher engine output support rough-road capability but come with greater fuel demand.

Daily mileage may differ from these figures. Heavy traffic, frequent acceleration, full passenger loads, low tyre pressure, high highway speeds, and off-road use can all increase diesel consumption.

What is the MG Gloster diesel mileage?

MG Gloster diesel mileage ranges from 12.04 to 13.92 kmpl. Both powertrains use a 1,996 cc diesel engine, but their turbo setup and drivetrain differ.

The 2WD turbo version focuses more on regular road use and returns 13.92 kmpl. The 4WD twin-turbo offers higher output and stronger off-road ability, with a lower 12.04 kmpl figure.

  • The 2WD diesel automatic delivers 13.92 kmpl.
  • The 4WD diesel automatic returns 12.04 kmpl.
  • Both versions use an 8-speed torque-converter automatic.
  • The 2WD engine produces 161 PS.
  • The 4WD twin-turbo develops 215.5 PS.
  • Off-road use can raise diesel consumption.
  • Vehicle load can also affect everyday efficiency.

How much can MG Gloster cost to run monthly?

This example uses the 2WD diesel automatic's 13.92 kmpl figure. Diesel is assumed at Rs. 95 per litre.

The table is meant for planning only. Actual spending can be higher if traffic or driving conditions reduce real-world mileage.

Monthly fuel cost = Monthly distance ÷ selected mileage × example fuel price

Daily drivingMonthly distanceSelected mileageEstimated monthly fuel cost
20 km600 km13.92 kmplRs. 4,095
40 km1,200 km13.92 kmplRs. 8,190
60 km1,800 km13.92 kmplRs. 12,284

A 4WD Gloster may require more diesel because its official efficiency is lower. Regular off-road use can widen this difference further.

How does MG Gloster mileage compare with rivals?

The Gloster's last diesel automatic range sits within the broader full-size SUV segment. Its 2WD version offers higher mileage than its own 4WD configuration.

Mileage should be compared with drivetrain capability, engine output, seating, highway use, and off-road requirements.

How do Gloster 2WD and 4WD differ for mileage?

The drivetrain has a clear relationship with MG Gloster fuel efficiency. The 2WD turbo-diesel delivers 13.92 kmpl, while the more powerful 4WD twin-turbo returns 12.04 kmpl.

VersionOfficial mileageMain usage consideration
2WD turbo-diesel13.92 kmplRegular city and highway travel
4WD twin-turbo diesel12.04 kmplRough roads, touring, and off-road use

The 4WD also produces more power and torque. Buyers researching a used Gloster should therefore compare drivetrain needs with fuel expense rather than mileage alone.

What should used MG Gloster buyers check?

Since the Gloster is no longer sold as a new car, vehicle condition now matters as much as its original mileage figure. Two used examples can return different efficiency even with the same powertrain.

Check the service history, tyre condition, wheel alignment, engine health, automatic gearbox behaviour, and 4WD system before purchase. A neglected SUV may consume more diesel than a well-maintained example.

Also inspect how the vehicle was previously used. Frequent off-road driving, heavy towing, or sustained high-load use can affect wear and long-term running costs.

What are the MG Gloster specifications?

MG Gloster specifications include a 1,996 cc diesel engine in turbo and twin-turbo forms. Every version uses an 8-speed automatic transmission.

The SUV offers six-seat and seven-seat configurations with a 75-litre diesel tank. Its long 2,950 mm wheelbase supports a spacious three-row cabin.

The Gloster also offered connected technology, a 360-degree camera, terrain modes, driver-assistance features, ventilated seats, and a panoramic sunroof on selected variants.

How can you improve MG Gloster mileage?

A large diesel SUV responds noticeably to load, tyre condition, traffic, and throttle inputs. Sensible driving can help keep fuel use more consistent.

  • Maintain the recommended tyre pressure.
  • Avoid sudden acceleration from low speeds.
  • Keep highway speeds steady when conditions allow.
  • Limit unnecessary luggage on regular trips.
  • Avoid prolonged engine idling.
  • Use 4WD modes only when required.
  • Maintain correct wheel alignment.
  • Complete engine and gearbox servicing on schedule.
  • Plan routes that reduce long periods of congestion.
