Expert Verdict on Astor

Design9
Interior9
Features10

The MG Astor is a strong contender in its segment, offering a bunch of features, a comfy cabin, and powerful petrol engines. It stands out as an excellent SUV under Rs 20 lakh. However, it doesn't come with a diesel engine, and the backseat space is a bit limited. Nevertheless, for four people, the Astor ensures a comfortable ride.

Pros & Cons of MG Astor

  • Features we admire in this car

    • 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
  • Features that could have been better

    • 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
  • Should I buy the Astor?

    If you're seeking modern features, a comfortable ride, and excellent petrol engines, the MG Astor is a suitable choice. However, it falls short on rear-row space. Packed with modern features and enhanced by new additions, the Astor has become more appealing, especially with the introduction of new variants that increase its competitiveness. Opt for the Astor if you desire a luxurious cabin, a feature-loaded interior, and a comfortable ride. However, if you prioritize these features along with a preference for a diesel engine, you might consider exploring the KIA Seltos or the new Hyundai Creta, both offering a premium cabin and the option of a diesel motor.

    Appealing Exterior With Bold Design 9
    • The Astor boasts an appealing exterior design with sleek lines and a bold celestial grille that instantly grabs attention. The LED headlights, along with stylish DRLs, add a touch of sophistication.
    • The sides of the SUV stand tall on well-designed alloy wheels, showcasing a perfect balance of ruggedness and modern aesthetics. The overall exterior exudes a sense of confidence and modern charm
    • At the rear, you'll find distinctive LED tail lamps featuring a prominent MG logo and Astor badging positioned at the center of the tailgate.

      Another competitor for the MG Astor is the Honda Elevate. The Honda Elevate features a spacious cabin with comfortable seating, modern amenities, and a well-tuned suspension for a smooth ride. It is equipped with a single 1.5-litre NA petrol engine, known for its efficiency but not particularly thrilling for driving enthusiasts. In contrast, the Astor offers both NA petrol and turbo petrol engines, providing an option for those seeking a more exciting driving experience. Additionally, the Astor stands out for its tech-laden features, including a personal AI, offering a range of modern functionalities. Both SUVs are equipped with ADAS, and in terms of pricing, both the Honda Elevate and MG Astor are competitively positioned in the market.

Meanwhile, the KIA Seltos is renowned for its practicality, spacious interiors, and versatile features, making it a comprehensive choice. An additional advantage of the Seltos is the availability of a diesel powertrain.
