• Pros & Cons

  Pros, Cons

  Pros	It has become more stylish than its previous generation The car comes with features like a 360-degree camera, a 4-way powered driver seat, a BOSE 7-speaker sound system, auto-dimming IRVM, wireless charging, and more. The design includes a dual-screen connected panel with a full digital cluster. It has a 10.25-inch color LCD MID and a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment. It is available with 3 engine options: 1.2-litre NA petrol, 1.0-litre turbo petrol, and a 1.5-litre diesel engine. The HTK+ variant is available with all three engine options making it a good option. Diesel engine is available starting from the base HTE variant Different types of transmission options are available depending on the engine. The DCT gearbox is available starting with the HTX variant at Rs 12.29 lakh. The interior comes with an option of 5 colour themes and offers a premium feel The car is loaded with a number of safety features. It includes 15 standard safety features. These include 6 airbags, ESP, VSC, Hill-hold assist, ABS, Brake Assist, and more. Level-1 ADAS features add extra safety. They include Front Collision Warning (FCW). They also include Leading vehicle departure alert, Lane Departure Warning, Lane keep assist, and more. The base variant comes with a decent number of safety features and an attractive price tag	Positioned as one of the most technologically advanced SUVs in its segment, featuring an AI assistant Boasts a premium interior with a choice of two color options: Ivory & Sangria The 2024 update introduces new features, including wireless charging, wireless connectivity for Apple CarPlay & Android Auto, ventilated seats, auto-dimming IRVM, and more Aggressively priced, with the top model available at Rs 17.89 lakh (ex-showroom) and equipped with Level 2 ADAS Offers an extensive array of features, such as a 360-camera, powered seats, automatic climate control, a 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system, MG iSmart Suite, a panoramic sunroof, and more The addition of new lower variants enhances the overall value-for-money proposition for Astor Offer a good number of standard safety features such as all-4 disc brakes, ABS with EBD, ESP, hill-hold, traction control, rear fog lamp, ISOFIX child seat mount, all-5 3-point seatbelt, seatbelt reminder, and more
  Cons	No automatic transmission with the 1.2-litre NA petrol engine The lower models lack features. The company only reserves most of the good features for the higher variants. GTX+ & X-Line variants are the only ones that have ADAS. The turbo petrol engine does not offer a complete manual transmission. Instead, it comes with a clutchless manual transmission. This might not appeal to some customers. The dual-tone color option is not available until the HTX+ variant The 10.25-inch infotainment does not support Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The top-of-the-line X-line trim comes with a high price tag specially with diesel engine The 1.2-litre petrol engine is available in three variants only	No diesel engine is available The turbo petrol engine doesn't offer a manual transmission Base variants have only 2 airbags, whereas many other SUVs in this category now provide 6 airbags Although the Astor is longer, wider, and broader than other SUVs, its wheelbase isn't optimal, resulting in limited legroom at the rear The Astor is most comfortable for 4 adults; accommodating 5 adults might be challenging ADAS is available in the top-spec Savvy Pro variant only with the 1.4-litre turbo engine
