MG Astor Launch Price : MG Astor (MG ZS Petrol) First Drive Review
The MG Astor compact crossover SUV, which is also the petrol version of the ZS EV, will be MG Motor’s entry into India’s mid-segment market.
When it launched its first vehicle, the Hector crossover SUV in India, MG Motor India saw a lot of success. There have been numerous SUV and compact SUV models released by the company since then.
MG Astor Launch Price
Let’s get serious straight away and the price is something that most of the time decides the fate of a vehicle that is launched. Here is a table to explain in simple terms :
Model | MG Astor | Hyundai Creta | Kia Seltos | Skoda Kushaq | VW Taigun |
Price(in lakh) | 10.00 (Expected) | 9.99 | 9.95 | 10.50 |
Examples include the ZS EV, Gloster, and Hector Plus. Hector is the most important and well-known of the bunch. Everybody wants and wishes to drive a compact SUV because of the space and features that it offers.
Today, MG has a compact SUV that is extremely popular. Creta, India’s best-selling SUV, is a formidable competitor.
The ZS EV’s petrol-avatar, the 4.3-meter-long Astor, was unveiled a year and a half ago. In reality, Astor is simply ZS rebadged, and the British company sells it in multiple countries around the world under the name Astor. This car’s tailgate features a prominent ZS emblem.
Because of their size, the Creta-Seltos and Taigun-Kushaq siblings would be Astor’s main competition. To your surprise, the Astor’s powertrain is fueled by gasoline. The 1.3-liter turbocharged engine comes standard with a 6-speed automatic transmission, while the 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine is available with either a manual transmission (MT) or a continuously variable transmission (CVT).
