Base model is value for money, whereas the change in price rate is bigger towards upper model. The second model should not be more expensive than one lakh. Super model
Perhaps the most under engineered powertrain in segment Both Creta and Tiagun has 6 speed manual or 7DCT this has 5 speed manual or 6 speed TC Power is also least in segment
I am interested to know about the long term maintenance cost of Astor. What is the service cost, price of spare parts, how about the after sales service. Also, I don't think this car will fetch any good amount after 4-5 years.
Resale value depend upon market demand if the product will sell in good nos the resale will be better and if the product will be doomed then you will not get more buyers
@@veeras2020 Hello Veeraa, I didn't get any information on the same. Just because of this I am delaying my purchase as well. I am not going buy it unless until I have all the information with me. If i get to know further, would share the same with you.
You're saying DIESEL VARIANTS ALONE as if there are more than 2 fuel variants. 53% Diesel means 47% Petrol which in itself is a significantly competitive and high percentage when compared to the previous decade or even 4-5 years ago as well.
Yes, it mainly because price difference between these two fuels has diminished in last 4-5 years. Now with turbo petrols , even the torque performance of petrols has improved to level of diesels
Which you finalized by paying 34 thousand more than seltos htx you will get power driver seat 6 airbags blind spot detection ai steering modes lane assist rear assist big panaromic sunroof 360 degree camera turn signal camera big instrument cluster and many more traction control hill decent control
This car misses on features like ventilated seats, wireless phone charging and few others which you mentioned. So is there any chance that we could see these in new model and when do you expect it to be released with the updated model. I am planning to buy this car but i will book it next May or June. What do you think will MG get new model with these features by than?
If you want manual then go for Creta. The Astor petrol manual is lethargic, especially at lower revs. The engine really has to be worked to make it going.
What would be your recommendation xuv300 W8(o) (top model) or MG Astor super variant ?? for petrol manual. Your recommendation will help me a lot on booking. My major requirement is safety and rear seat comfort for major access to and witin city
Go for Creta (Diesel) only.. Even if you purchase E variant you will get other things done after market within ₹50k and make it like EX variant.. And in terms of exterior-interior looks, feel and comfort it is the best..
Can you explain interior colours of style astor in candy white colour? Can you show the interior video of style astor manual....that what is the show of manual gearbox with interior
I had booked but then cancelled again. This car is very cramped from inside, Rear legroom is good but that’s because it has very less under thigh support. And then there is transmission tunnel in between, hence its very cumbersome to allow seating for third passages, At front, the legroom is very very cramped. The middle walls of gear tunnel will poke your legs again and again, I really wanted to buy, but The space and comfort is very important for me if I want to plan long trips . Sad but true, very nice car but very cramped, even the Tiguan feels better from inside
I think they brought the petrol as a filler till Indians catch up with the EVs, which are a bit pricier. This model is just the MG ZS EV with petrol engine and connected car features.

While the car has AI and modern features and boasts of best in class infotainment , it's unable to fix basic USB feature like folder scan. Even in Hector it has the same issue. Songs stored in multiple folders in USB stick cannot be played based on your choice as there is no folder scan option. All songs gets mixed up and it plays in a system driven random order! It's a basic USB feature available on all mp3 players and entry level cars. It's unfortunate that a hifi car like this is unable to provide basic features while it boasts of AI. Repeated complaints to MG has not helped Car drive etc is good
@@prathammalkani5232 The Astor naturally aspirated engine takes its own sweet time to pick up speed. There is definitely lack of performance especially in the lower rev range.

Bro it was a suave presentation. I just loved your swag. It made Astor look more enthralling. Keep going. By the way - you have a sexy masculine voice. Oops i am also manly.
It's just icing on shit Worst car performance u have to drag drag n drag the car there is no power in CVT transmission worst Looks n fit n finish is good space is best

It's British. Current ownership is Chinese but that has nothing to do with car's technology. Even Volvo is owned by Chinese but that doesn't take away it's Swedish USP. Same with JLR.

Get a lower variant
current fav mid suv mg astor...only 2 things i miss - front seat AC and wirless apple carplay
Nice power train
Simple and clean design
Modern interior and truck load of connected car tech
Decent pricing can make this a hit
Base model is value for money, whereas the change in price rate is bigger towards upper model. The second model should not be more expensive than one lakh. Super model
Not only this channel ,,no one revealing fuel efficiency
Perhaps the most under engineered powertrain in segment

Have booked the Astor Sharp MT and the KIA Seltos HTX. Which one should I go for? Very confused - any suggestions please?

@@razerrazer8242 Yes I relaised - no comparison. I finalised the Astor!
I have booked Astor and now shifting to Nissan Kicks. What’s your view?
@@aska7835 no doubt Nissan kicks is a good car but the 1.5 na engine is not peppy to drive and low on mileage some issues on hilly areas
@@aska7835 Not the best decision as the Kicks may be discontinued due to low sales.
Sir my budget is 12laks which one is best car plz suggestion
Does the absence of paddle shifters make a difference while overtaking?
Yes at times it does because the autoboxes, both CVT and torque converter take about half a second to respond to heavy throttle input.
This car misses on features like ventilated seats, wireless phone charging and few others which you mentioned. So is there any chance that we could see these in new model and when do you expect it to be released with the updated model. I am planning to buy this car but i will book it next May or June.

No bro not getting i am also planning to buy this in feb and no new model is coming
What is its milage..?
What's the milage mg Astor, I eared its giving low milage...
Rear seat is not upto the mark
Bhai should i go for creta Sx petrol manual for city or should i go for mg astor????
If you want manual then go for Creta. The Astor petrol manual is lethargic, especially at lower revs. The engine really has to be worked to make it going.
Plz Don't Mention Creta in Ride Quality.. It's A Ship In A Strom

Tanks all. I took xuv300 and is good to me. Tanks all for your valuable feedback
I feel the Suzuki Scross can do all of this with less gimmicky features and more value for money even today.
S-Cross is a really under rated car. Ofcourse its cabin feels ancient. But mechanically it is a fine product.
Can you explain interior colours of style astor in candy white colour?
Can you show the interior video of style astor manual....that what is the show of manual gearbox with interior
I Bet, It'll Become An Avg Car
How brooo

No diesel in the astor would eat up its own sales.

How much do they charge for driving in that circuit?
Its 6500 for 30 mins for cars
They guessed the price to start from 13lacs and mg undercut them by starting at 9.78

Car drive etc is good
I think am hearing the seatbelt reminder? Or is it a speed sensor?
With so many beep possibilities some driver may get confused. I hope It is different sound for different warnings and a visual indication as well.
Creta and Aster, felt like last Year’s Samsung mobile phone and this Year’s MI mobile phone…..Aster is too “Chinese”
if only this 1.3 was the same as Kicks.

If i am not wrong, we need to pay extra for ADAS Features.
You are correct, Rs.80,000 you have to pay for that.

If you can live with that then Astor is way above Sonnet.

They are absolutely different segments. No comparison.

Worst car performance
u have to drag drag n drag the car there is no power in CVT transmission worst
Looks n fit n finish is good space is best
I agree. The 1.5 is a pathetic performer. Almost made me scream.
The 1.3 litre is exactly opposite but there is no manual transmission with that.
If we want to buy base varient which one is taigun or astor
Taigun
Depends on your priority.
If you are a keen driver then definitely Taigun or Kushaq. For everything else Astor.
Global ncap rating!?
MG 😁: not interested 😁

In Hindi review
How many of you think the interior is heavily copied from latest Jaguar vehicles.
No one 😂😂
@@reflexon5760 😂
The dash colour, some other bits and wide sunroof definately looks copied from Jaguar
Car me helmet 😂😂👍👍 not confidence about own drive..
I guess mandatory requirement on F1 circuit track, and he is testing the car. Imagine high speed and ADAS fails 😭
Is sunroof available in base model
top model
No
Not sure of the build quality.. crash test like NCAP rating?
5 star
It got its rating...it is 5 star
ZS EV got 5 stars and this is the ICE version of the electric. So rating should be 4 or 5 stars for this also.
