It would be hard to choose between Taigun, Astor and Creta. Taigun is fun to drive, Creta is feature loaded and Astor looks nice from outside and has a quality cabin inside.
This review is spot on. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼❤️❤️ Being a 220 Turbo owner myself with ADAS features, I was listening to this review very carefully to try & punch a hole or two in the reviewer's assessment. But this review is as accurate as it can get from any reviewer. The car indeed feels really solidly built, the engine sound is almost non existent, cabin sound insulation is fantastic, ride is plush, handling is really very good (not sporty but excellent otherwise). The brakes are more than adequate and do their job efficiently without any drama. This review very accurately covers all important aspects about the car. Anything more, then only an actual owner will be a good source of info. 😉
For the youth, aspiring to own the first ever car with their “own” money and stretching their budgetary limits, reviewing the base models too would be ideal, imo.
Although it looks nice, i dont get why car manufacturers have to put fake exhaust surrounds in cars these days😃Apart from that i think Astor will definitely shake the compact SUV market in months to come due to its aggressive pricing along with the plethora of safety and tech features it provides 👍
Happy owner of astor CVT and believe me it's not a car to compete with it's segement the interior quality and many attention to detail things are only available above the segement, and talking about performance it's good and gives you power when you need it and getting a good mileage figures too
This car is all about interiors and features, but driving dynamics and engine refinement is just average. Lack of auto-dimming IRVM and paddle shifters at 20+ lakhs on road is just unacceptable.
With 1.5 Sharp Manual we are facing issue while driving in uphill. If there is one person sitting in back seat the car doesnt move at all from stand still.
Hi,you are doing a real good job withthe reviews. Can you guys do a review of the Astor 1.5 CVT. I have searched everywhere for the Astor 1.5 CVT for a professional review. Thanks in advance
Astor feels more of VW then VW itself, we went straight to VW as a polo owner came back disappointed as I saw screw on sun blind and squeaky plastic on dashboard , ASTOR does all the job and feel like a 20L car
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
I hate how much electronics is being shoved into cars. This sounds like a good feature but it gives these companies more control on a car that the customer is supposed to fully own.
Unfortunately these are the bare minimum electronics by world standards as even the smallest of cars come with ADAS overseas. We didnt have it that's why it feels alien to us
laden gc means when people are in the car or else unladen gc of Astor is 185mm mostly cars are sold with unladen gc figure but laden gc for most compact suv/crossovers are around same range. in 1 and half months my Astor never touched even big size bump
Its surely a stunner and grabs long attention of the on lookers by the street. I loved the car and got the best ownership experience. Very comfortable in city or on long highways. Would recommend ADAS, very useful on highways.
LOL..... high beam assistant is a waste technology in India. Vehicles like few 4 wheelers, all most all Trucks and travel's multi axle buses add 2 to 4 more headlights along with oem fitted headlamp even the govt. Rto buses also add more headlights. Now there are total of 4 to 6 point headlights in high beam and oncoming vehicles can't see any more. Now tell me what is the use of high beam assist technology. Why the hell Indian government not taking it seriously? Government will take seriously until unless any big boss or a minister die in such accidents. Yes I'm angry at those high beamers. 😤
I personally love the Astor. The interiors in person is an absolute value for money. Crafted beautifully.
Fuel economy is a killer for me

One of the best 👍💯. I didn't expect MG to give so many features at a reasonable price. A real value for money proposition!
Although it looks nice, i dont get why car manufacturers have to put fake exhaust surrounds in cars these days😃Apart from that i think Astor will definitely shake the compact SUV market in months to come due to its aggressive pricing along with the plethora of safety and tech features it provides 👍
Autocar India is pumping out wonderful content so quickly! Best wishes! I've Subbed.
For me, comfortable rides matter a lot and that's why I have booked MG Astor.
Happy owner of astor CVT and believe me it's not a car to compete with it's segement the interior quality and many attention to detail things are only available above the segement, and talking about performance it's good and gives you power when you need it and
getting a good mileage figures too
Sir. How much mileage figures are you getting in city and highway both?
Astor is truly a great option. Its AI system and driving features are impressive .
The corner ac vents and the steering wheel looks more like that of merc than vw!
A comparison between Astor and Xuv’s ADAS systems would be quite good
One could also understand the level 1,2,… concept of ADAS
It's a brilliant car no doubt, but there's something unexplainable that doesn't want me to put my hard earned bucks on an MG
If Astor was available in diesel it would have been instant hit.
Strangely i haven't seen a single Astor on road around.
I hear the factory can't produce many as there aren't enough chips and too much demand for Hector
Delivery issue
Pls do a 1.5 L engine review….thats what most people would buy
8:10 Is the Taigun a teaser of a mega comparison to come?
Tuxedo Black interior theme look more classy than Red
Paddle shifters are still a miss at this Price Point..
Overall a Great Car...
Most underrated car
All the features is amazing 🔥and its Price is value for money 💰
But they should make Diesel manual also 👍
One of the very good products, better than Creta and Seltos
Wonderful explanation review was awesome stay always blessed 🙂❤️🙏
Is the Taigun in this video a hint of a comparison video? Waiting for it.
This car is all about interiors and features, but driving dynamics and engine refinement is just average. Lack of auto-dimming IRVM and paddle shifters at 20+ lakhs on road is just unacceptable.
Even xuv 700 doesn’t have it
High Beam assist should be made mandatory by law!
Wonder, how will all those fancy electronics behave over few years down the line...!!
Even its base model is a complete vfm 🔥
With 1.5 Sharp Manual we are facing issue while driving in uphill. If there is one person sitting in back seat the car doesnt move at all from stand still.
Great Review Saumil - to the point with holistic coverage
Fuel efficiency part ???
Hi,you are doing a real good job withthe reviews. Can you guys do a review of the Astor 1.5 CVT. I have searched everywhere for the Astor 1.5 CVT for a professional review. Thanks in advance
How's the mileage?
Is the nvh level better than the polo tsi auto?
Astor is Fantastic, great car with best interiors….||||
First comment 👍
Does every variant has sun roof??
No, top 2 variants
No
Review the 1.5 petrol manual
Please do a comparison video on Astor VS Creta
This car has bundle of lots of features and safety equipments, please guide me about its milega for both 1.3 and 1.5???
I AM HAVING SAVY AT TOP MODEL CAN I INSTALL LATEST UPDATES TO MY CAR TWO YEARS OLD
Confused between top end Taigun and top end Astor
Go with top end astor if you want ADAS features. Taigun is like normal car nothing new, it looks small in real world.
go for the tiagun
Astor feels more of VW then VW itself, we went straight to VW as a polo owner came back disappointed as I saw screw on sun blind and squeaky plastic on dashboard , ASTOR does all the job and feel like a 20L car
MG Please add ventillated seats and auto IRVM
Yes, abhi se first hai, but ye 2 features ke baad toh koi aas pass bhi nahi rehe ga
They will.
Had all car interiors in India be like it….Wish never comes true….All other manufacturers throw us poor plastic…. Best car in India barring engines 🙏
Beautiful car 💕💕
I'm yet to see a single car. Is there a delay or low marketing?
Delay due to chip issue.
Make video on MG hector 2022 version.....
Can we turn off the AI assistant? I don't want the car to take unnecessary conversations
Red interior colours and red upholstery colours will certainly split opinions and can also prove to be deal cracker and breaker ...
BASE MODEL REVIEW PLZZ 🔥🔥
I've been waiting for a long time.
Lane keep assist works the best on an expressway. Works like a charm
ASTOR🔥🔥
Astor or Carens? 🤔
Now just waiting for NCAP test.
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.

Repeated complaints to MG has not helped
Car drive etc is good
Have been waiting for the Skoda Slavia review! Hope those engines are worth the money
That massive sunroof but a thin/ flimsy looking sunshade, how does it hold in summers?
Remember ADAS, for Lane departure warning, you need to have painted lanes on the road as well .. 😂🤣
Tough build quality 🤔 Whats the GNCAP rating of the Indian variant?
It's dimensions are longer but it still feels narrow and small inside (clostrophobic)
Waiting for 1.5 litre cct review
Game changer if low waiting period.
mg astor drag race with creta pls :)))))))))
Great review
I hate how much electronics is being shoved into cars. This sounds like a good feature but it gives these companies more control on a car that the customer is supposed to fully own.
Unfortunately these are the bare minimum electronics by world standards as even the smallest of cars come with ADAS overseas. We didnt have it that's why it feels alien to us
No it doesn’t…….
I love the product. But exterior design reminds of old creta
I20 ko zoom karke dekho toh Astor lagta hey 😂
Good one 😉
Choose one:
1. Creta
2. Seltos
3. Kushaq
4. Taigun
5. Astor
Looks awesome. But low profile tyres are useless.
Base variant is vfm
Soo soon vw taigun vs Astor coming soon...
I like the car a lot, but I hate that stupid plastic thing a top of dash board.
Wait a minute.. 141 mm gc laden? Will it touch bumps?
laden gc means when people are in the car or else unladen gc of Astor is 185mm mostly cars are sold with unladen gc figure but laden gc for most compact suv/crossovers are around same range. in 1 and half months my Astor never touched even big size bump
It's same as others, I guess u new
Cars have gone from being engineering marvels to gimmick machines....
1.5 petrol is underpowered....
1.3 turbo would be fine I guess......
Astor better than Creta Seltos Taigun Kushaq
Nice car 👌🏻
URBAN CRUISER IS BEST @ THIS PRICE RANGE
Mg Astor nice 👍 I want that 🚗 wrong
17L ex showroom is huge money
BIC Race Track is such a wasted opportunity
Only con is it's not available in diesel
I have this car and I love it, but the mileage is terrible.
1st comment 💪🏻
We need a detailed comparison between astor creta seltos taigun kushaq and scross
This is a budget GLA
MG copied Captiva and renamed it as Hector. It’s gearbox is sluggish. Don’t know how Aster performs.
It's features are awesome for that money but their design is bit odd & it looks like a hatch
Its surely a stunner and grabs long attention of the on lookers by the street. I loved the car and got the best ownership experience. Very comfortable in city or on long highways.
Would recommend ADAS, very useful on highways.
i found the interior very jaguar
Love taigun ❤️🔥❤️🔥
rolley polley
What about the manual. An abandoned kid !!!
I really wonder how these ADAS features would work in dense city traffic ?🙄🤔
It has an adaptive cruise control

it's better to buy XUV 7OO MX series
base models are never worth
