➡️The MG Astor is the petrol counterpart of the now popular ZS EV from the Chinese-British enterprise.
➡️The Astor is taller, wider and longer than its main rivals Creta, Seltos, Taigun and Kushaq.
➡️The Astor is the first MG to get an AI or artificial intelligence personal assistant.
➡️The Astor also gets 2 Petrol engine options. You get both manual and auto gearboxes.
➡️The range topper is the 1.4 litre turbo Petrol which makes 138 bhp @ 5600 rpm and 220 Nm @ 3600 rpm. A 6-speed Automatic comes as standard here. It also gets a Sport mode but what's missing here are paddle shifts.
➡️the naturally 1.5 litre aspirated engine makes 108 bhp @ 6000 rpm along with 144 Nm @ 4,400 rpm. It gets 5-Speed manual or CVT transmission options.
➡️The MG Astor also comes with Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS) along with Level 2 autonomous technology. MG has partnered with Bosch for this, and the Astor uses six radars and five cameras, allowing it to manage 14 driver assistance functions.
➡️We expect the Astor to be priced between ₹ 9 and 18 lakh, ex-showroom. It is slated to go on sale in the market in the next few weeks, bang in the middle of the festive season.
