Pulled 406-tonne train to set world record Bookings open at Rs 41,000 Launch expected soon in India
JSW MG Motor India has made headlines with its upcoming flagship SUV, the MG Majestor.
The SUV has officially entered the Guinness World Records by pulling the heaviest train ever hauled by an SUV on rail.
Pulled a 406-Tonne Train
The MG Majestor successfully pulled a massive 406.4-tonne train over a distance of 300 feet.
This record-breaking run took place on an operational railway track between Kakapora and Awantipora in Jammu and Kashmir.
Notably, the feat went beyond the required benchmark of 400 tonnes and 100 feet, setting a new global standard.

No Modifications, Pure Performance
What makes this achievement more impressive is that the SUV used was a standard production model.
There were no engine tweaks or traction modifications. The entire train movement was powered only by the MG Majestor, without any external support.
Experts closely monitored the attempt to ensure complete transparency and accuracy.
Powerful Engine and Capability
The MG Majestor is powered by a 2.0-litre twin-turbo diesel engine.
It produces 215.5 PS of power and 478.5 Nm of torque, paired with an 8-speed automatic gearbox.
The SUV also gets advanced off-road hardware like triple differential locks, a 4WD system with multiple terrain modes, crawl control, 219 mm ground clearance and 810 mm water-wading capacity.
Loaded with Features and Safety
Positioned as India’s first D+ segment SUV, the Majestor combines rugged capability with premium features.
It comes equipped with Level 2 ADAS, offering advanced safety and driver assistance.
The cabin is expected to deliver a premium experience with modern technology and comfort-focused features.
Bookings Open Ahead of Launch
MG has already opened pre-reservations for the Majestor at Rs 41,000.
The first 3,000 customers will get a special ownership package that includes:
- 5-year unlimited kilometre warranty
- 5-year roadside assistance
- 5 labour-free services
Early buyers will also receive priority deliveries and exclusive access to preview events and test drives.
Launch Expected Soon
The MG Majestor is set to launch in India soon and is expected to take on premium SUVs in the segment with its bold positioning and strong capability.
With a Guinness World Record already under its belt, the Majestor is clearly aiming to make a strong first impression.
