The autonomous braking system in the Gloster works below speeds of 40 kmph (25 mph) by bringing the vehicle to a complete halt if it senses a possible collision.

On the outside, elements like projector lens LED headlights, LED daytime running lights (DRLs), 18-inch alloy wheels and LED taillights will be included.
