    At maximum, I got 17.8KMPL when I ride my astor at night or early morning. When I ride by morning, it gives maximum 16kmpl. Its more than enough for me.. Very good comfort, I never expected this for this price...

    Exactly... Not many many people know that MG made cars are built like a tank. Even the comet has heavy doors and it weighs heavier that celerio which is technically a larger car. Mileage will be less however you are getting a European(Chinese made) spec car with descent reliability (unlike tata and mahindra).

    I am planning to buy between Sonet / Venue / Astor. My current car is polo 1.5 diesel. After my test drive, I felt Astor is superior among the 3 shortlished. can you tell me exact mileage bumper to bumper and light traffic?? I heard if we are light footed is gives good mileage with less braking and less than 2000 rpm

    • @JR_packs
      @JR_packs  6 місяців тому

      Good choice, since Sonet/ venue are compact SUV , where Astor comes in Mid size SUV segment.
      Mileage in the tight bumper to bumper it tracked 8 to 9kmpl to be honest.

    My take is mid size crossover la ,
    So astor oda plus points are
    1 Astor has the cheapest base varient by a huge margin. So buyers can get a mid size at a cost of a some of a sub meter with great features
    2 as for the engine, a 1.5 is a great upgrade for a person coming from a smaller cars, at 12 lakhs , even a vitara sigma costs above 13.5 lakhs
    Cons
    1 you said creta does not give touch screen at the base, but creta base comes with 6 air bags , 4 wheel discs , projector headlights etc as standard , so installing a music syatem is not a issue as they are not technical thing, extra airbags or discs can't be installed on a base of a astor
    2 next to the engine 1.5 in a astor is a good upgrade from a small car as i said earlier
    But there are better engines in the market , eg a 1.5 of a honda ivtec or a 1.5 from a vitara mild hybrid will give you more mileage, and vitara will give 20kmpl at 80kmph and 18 min at 100 due to battery assisted tech
    And ivtec gives more performance with the relative mileage
    So issue with astor was with the heavy car the 1.5 was not able to pull the car like others , and even vitara got 4 stars and elevate cousin city got 5 in the asean ncap.
    So if your budget is tight and around 12 lakhs , astor will be a great option as nobody gives you a mid aize at that price
    So thanks for the review cheers 😊😊

      Hi , I agree that Creta base comes with 6 Bags but I don't think they are giving an LED projector but halogen. On top of it Astor also comes with an All wheel disc brake. Build & Premium wise Astor > Creta however coming to Engine performance Creta has an upper hand.
      I see sprint and Sharp variant in Astor is valuable for money. No doubt Creta is the King in the segment.( If you can afford 18+ lacks ).
      Thank you for your opinion 👐.

      @@JR_packs yes agreed , creta give halogen projector only , but visibility is a toss up , and yes I missed up the 4 wheel disc point in astor :) , but if price is not a issue that 1.5 engine is a bit of a downer. Specially the mileage
      Yes the astor is heavy , but better crash rating can be developed with better strong and light structure too , as in kushaq or elevate which is what I feel, that heavy chassis is taking a toll , we call it power to weight ratio
      Anyway thanks bro 👍👍👍👍

      Bro, Astor base model has 4 wheel disc brake, ESP, ABS, Traction control, Hill hold assist, hill decent control, Auto AC with climate control, rear vent ac, LED projector lamp, back wiper with washer, de fogger, steering wheel mount control, driver seat with height adjustments, 10" monitor with all system control, especially Steering dynamics, android and apple carplay and more.. I am not sure, these features are available in the Creta base model.

      @@nkarthikeyan1907 bro if you go by the features Astor wins compared to all other cars in the competition,
      But creta base E la they would have given all the basic features, 6 air bags , 4 wheel discs , abs with ebd, esp, vsm vehicle stability management, etc
      Yes creta might miss hill assit , steering modes etc and touch screen etc but it has covered the basic features
      As I said above , Astor main weakness is its engine , and it's mileage , you can ask about cretas build , the old creta is 3 , but the new one will do 5, point is other cars like kushaq , vitara , elevate have got 4-5 crash rating but they are lighter cars and better engines
      Astor main issue is its engine,
      The chassis is so heavy , that the engine struggles to pull it , and mileage is low.
      1, 2 , 3 gear la power less power
      So MG is following the chinese strategy of more features at less price , as I said about Astor is a perfect choice for sub 4 meter budget buyers,
      But there are other cars with better engines and mileage , and better service and handling
      Ours is a elevate V MT, we don't get all the features that Astor offers but we get all the basic features, ultimately for us the engine is great and handling is great , better mileage.
      So it's my opinion
      And your opinion might vary that's it.
