MG Motor India has increased the prices of its MG Astor compact SUV by Rs. 10,000, effective immediately. The price hike affects all the trims in MG Astor’s range that includes Style, Super, Smart, Sharp, and Sharp (O). The new prices of the MG Astor now start from Rs. 10.32 lakh for the base version and goes up to Rs. 18.22 lakh (ex-showroom, India) for the top-spec version. MG is also offering a price hike on the EX-variants of the Astor that essentially loses out on a few safety features for quicker delivery of the car.
