Useful review. Cleared doubts, Congratulations 🎉
Thank you for helping.
Nice car & great review! Congratulations again 🎉
Thank You!
Absolutely perfect and realistic info
Thank You!
Hello, Were you able to take the car on hills? If Yes, pls share your experience wrt power/pickup
No, not yet. I’ll share the review as soon as i’ll take a trip to the hills.
Hi Bai
I am very impressed and like your review.
I decided to buy a base varient for my daughter.
She is first time driving.
Pl share it's right choice? Or not
First of all - Thank you!
4 things that you will have different in bade model from this model will be - (1) Base model comes with key and this model is push start, keyless
(2) No alloy wheels (3) No Sunroof and Sunroof was the selling point for me in this model (4) No Digital meter, base model comes with traditional old meter.
Engine is same and interior is same so choosing base model could be a good deal if you are ok with there things.
One more think.. Is there mobile conectivity through jack... I jave oneplus 11 R where no having jack.. Than how to connect this???
Yes, they offer android car play and apple car play with wires function only. There are many third-party devices which makes it wireless, so I think you can opt for that.
Gud Choice
Thank you!
Brother, i have booked super model in same colour, i have no need of sunroof... Is this right choice in this model... Plz suggest.
Engine is same so i guess it’s a smart choice. In super model you will not get keyless start and application control. I reckon it’s indeed a smart choice.
U must go for skyroof.. it's superb
Oh absolutely. A must buy thing.
With Ac on in city rides definitely the mileage will dip, i too purchased the smart cvt this winter. Hoping for a good average after 3rd service
I am hoping for the same.
Bro, how much mileage it gave inside city
How about read seat... It seems to be a bit small and uncomfortable.... Can you comment on this pls
I sat once at back that too at the time of test drive, 99% I am on the driving seat. If I have to share the review as per my family members then they have no complaints so far. They sit comfortably and enjoy the ride.
I am planning to purchase austor what about performance test please suggest
So far it has been good I don’t see any issues with performance, but yeah, it is filled with technology, which is a pinpoint at some point of time, and I would like to address that in the next video. Running is not an issue. It’s smooth and steady, but the tech side creates problem.
Bro does it have a fake exhaust panel or both exhaust is working
Yes, that is only for look and it has only one exhaust.
excellent review write words
Thank you.
Astor has a big problem. The controls of AC and other functions are in the infotainment itself. I want to keep the car for more than 5 years, if the system breaks, i cannot even replace it with a cheaper one. I'll have to pay more than 50k to replace. The hector's unit costs 80k. Paying so much for a stereo for a 5-6 year old car is stupid. Also, in all other cars, i can install another stereo, not in this because the ac and other functions will not work then.
There is no info on spare part prices as well. I've heard they are very expensive unnecessarily. No price is provided online. What if 5-6 years down the line, the stereo breaks, won't be able to use the AC then. No one will buy the car when they come to know the stereo can't be changed and they are stuck with 5-7 year old tech whereas they can upgrade in another car if they want.
This car feels like a use and throw product because of this. I cancelled the car because of this.
The extended warranty is only for 5 years, beyond that one will have to pay to buy but availability of this exact model stereo is also in question. if car is discontinued, spares might take long, the car will be unusable in that case. In any other old car, i can get a latest or a cheap android installed in 5-6 years time, not in this.
Good point out, however, the AC can be controlled from long press of buttons also. Even I want to keep the car for not less than 8 years from now. So far this car runs good but yes I feel less power.
Does this car lag in up hill roads like ghat. And does it generate overtaking like power in up hill roads?
It does generate good overtaking power, however, it not yet tested on HILLS BY ME YET. I’ll share the video as soon as I’ll take hills ride.
Sure, thank you
Nice choice bro.
Thank you.
@@WithSameerBhutani I visited today at the showroom after watching your video and I am amazed how awesome is the interior of this one. Call krunga iske regarding.
@@gauravgaur3903 Absolutely. Car is good without any doubt. 3-4 chizen hain which I have addressed in this video.
Heartily congratulations on getting this beautiful and powerful machine. Could you pls tell from which dealership you bought this? And how was the experience overall with the dealership?
Thank you so much. I purchased this from MG Motors Golf Course Rd. Mr. Nagendra will help you there.
@@WithSameerBhutani thank you
@@WithSameerBhutani thank you
It was a British brand....with Chinese owners.....SAIC Automobile
Indeed. It is. Chinese investors now who are maintaining British legacy and a big selling point.
MG have won the award for customer satisfaction that's why
Ok. I never knew.
If you play little bit on rock music setting you will get a nice quality bass.
Exactly. I did the same and that is the reason I rated 8/10 for music system. But Tata is offering better quality and that could be the miss factor in this car.
@@WithSameerBhutani I have Tata Punch as well with JBL system it has the Bass but not that clarity of Astors one
@yashpund1 Altros has better system.
base model (sprint) me black colour ata ha kya?
Yes! Colors I guess saare models me same available hai.
Only two Colors are available in base silver and white
Silver is a good color choice.
Bro, what about milage??
With AC on these days. It is giving me 11.5.
What is the lowest and highest mileage you got?
Lowest 6 and highest 18.
Sir mileage on highway and city??
After 3rd Service. 11 City and 18 Highway.
Hello Sameer , I do have a budget of around 12 lakhs to get a petrol car . In my consideration, I do have Kia Sonet turbo imt htk+ , amaze , seltos base variant and recently launched Astor sprint variant which costs 9.98 lakhs. 70 % of drives would be in the city (in congested Bangalore traffic) and 30 % for weekend trips. Can you suggest which one should I consider?
(I don't want to go for Tata and Mahindra for Horrible After sales support in Bangalore. So I have narrowed down to 3 companies only Honda , Kia and MG).
Also , what I Heard from most of the other available astor videos is that - for 1.5 NA it is not a good engine and city average is quite less around 6 km/l . Also can you confirm these ?
Hey, as I mentioned in the beginning of this video that i am not a car expert and neither I am sharing expert opinions about this car. I shared what I was experiencing about MG since I bought this but still I’ll answer these questions.
- Milage:
Today (11th Feb) i drive my car in delhi traffic on an average speed of 30/50 KMPH and the average was 13.5 so whoever says 6-7 KMPH is not sharing the right info. I wish I could share the video i recorded regarding the average.
Budget of 12 Laks.
I’d suggest raise a bit and go for Honda Elevate or stay with MG AATOR base model.
Hey Subhash, do tell me which car did you buy. I am in the same boat. 12 lakh, Bangalore traffic and I want Honda, Kia or MG.
@@MrNinethsense I'm currently assessing my choices and plan to test drive all available cars next week. I'll share my observations with you afterward, in case they're beneficial to you.
In case you can raise a bit then Elevate is a superb option and MG is above KIA anyday. This is my observation.
MG is far better than rival base models
Between verna 2023 and astor which one you think is better.
Both are different segment. I was driving Civic from 15 years and was looking for a change. I will
Not be able to answer this question i’d suggest reach out to an expert of cars.
Please help us with the city traffic mileage
It’s 11.5 with AC so far. I am creating a dedicated video where i’ll explain everything.
@@WithSameerBhutani thanks. I am above 6 feet. I hope the space is sufficient
@SalmanKhan-lj8lp space is same in every SUV. Not much of a difference.
Hunterr review coming soon
Meteor review coming soon!
Bro this is a chinese company. It is owned by SAIC motors. From R&D to manufacturing everything is done in china
I am with you. I did some research and I apologize on my remarka that it is not a Chinese company. Yes you’re right.
bhai average to kam nhi ho gya car ka🤔🤔🤔😂😂😂😂@@WithSameerBhutani
@@akashdongre7041 haha na bhai. Bad gaya hai infact.
Abey chup
Sir leather seat cover kahan se banaye hai tel me number
From MG itself.
Brother civic cut kyu karai Punjab Sell kar dete ?
Brother, they did that kyunki mujhe x change bonus mila tha.
Hi Sameer, thanks for the video.
My budget is 12 lakhs, my running will be on highway not very frequently.
I am confused between Nexon pure S, or MG Astor (base model). This will be my first car.
Hello sir! Between Tata and MG I’ll go for Tata only if I am going with the base model anything above is obviously MG.
There will be a huge difference of customer handling and post service facility. I felt like I was in SBI bank when I visited Tata and when I visited MG it was like I visited Citibank where everyone listens to you and you can ask questions freely. I hope this example explains you the service scenario. My younger brother owns Altroz and I have ASTOR, when I had to get the second service done for MG then I called them and they picked it up and dropped without any charges and everything was given in written that what was done and what to expect, however, in Tata it was like no one listens to you and everyone behaves like they don’t care.
There will be a difference if 3 laks if you go for MG and you will not get Panoramic sunroof, no keyless start, no smart application where you can start and stop the car with your smartphone, no music system and for Tata it’s the same but you will not get one more thing which is arm rest support.
I hope it explains the majority difference.
Once again - if you have to go for base model then go for Tata because you will get better milage since it is 3 cylinder engine and MG provides 4 cylinder engine.
@@WithSameerBhutani Thanks, Sameer for the quick response and nice explanation. Much Appreciated.

Same here bhai ji
Service cost and maintenance kaisa hai bhai
Abhi tak to 4000₹ hi laga hai. Aage jaake pata chalega to share karunga.
Bhai last year india aaya tha hector cvt li thi Sachi bta rha hu local me 6 to 7 milage mila mujhe highway pe maximum Udaipur gya tha jaipur se frinds k Sath 11 ka mila tha vo bhi 80 90 ki speed pe petrol ita leti h sara taste kharab kr deti h bas interior and fit finish no doubt bhut acha h mene to abhi 3 month phle Honda city hybrid leli vo dedi mere frnd k papa ne li unhe week me 1 bar chalni h Honda city lene k bad mujhe lgta h worth buying hybrid car mujhe city local me 27 28 ka milage milta h hector se achi to meri Purani superb thi kam se kam highway pe to 15 16 ka milta tha 😂
Hector is no doubt heavy car and average to hai hi kam uski lekin if we talk about Astor iska engine Hector se kam hai and average is slightly better. On the point of buying a hybrid car so I think right now the prices are so high that I will not even end up purchasing that much of fuel that I’ll pay extra on the car so I think in the price range that I have purchased it think it’s worth it.
Shinu Bhai tujhe 21 hectors ka salam jo tune hector ko ek sedan se compare Kiya...
Bechara tujhe kya hi pata hoga curb weight ke baare me....
Tujhe to truck mein splendor wali milage chahiye na 😢
@@ionman2537 bhai 6 ki milage lelu phir sedan se compare ki bat nhi h 6 7 ki milage ho to power to feel kam se kam isse acha xuv 700 nhi h most powerful and reliable engine pese ki worth to ho kam se kam mere pass superb thi vo local me 10 ka milage deti thi mujhe koi problem nhi hoti thi kam se worth tha usse 10 ka milage Lena isse acha h xuv 700 lele more feature rich more milage and Indian brand
Bhai tu splender leke 20 ki avaerge to nhi lega na power hector me na k brabar h uper se fuel ita leti h
Your mind is only revolving around mileage. Definitely Hector is Not a Car for your mind. You did wrong choice. Do not blame the Car.
Company to Chinese hai bhai, but I think india ka business reliance lene wala tha, pta nhi kya bna.. may b this year..
Product acha hai company jo bhi ho haha
Bhai Mercedes se koi mg mai switch nahi krta, tuk tuk se mg Astor pe jate hai log😂😂😂
Haha. I think I oversaid that statement but TukTuk se MG Astor is your overstatement.
Iss car ka size,engine k hisab se 15kmpl se upr honi hi chahiye thi sahb
Haan lekin nahi hai. But I am ok with that. Depends on an individual mujhe lagta hai.
Bro , mileage in city
With AC 11.5
Everythig is fine, but the statement its not a chinese company the parts are manufactured in china is wrong. MG is a Chinese company located in UK.
MG Motor UK Limited (MG Motor) is an automotive company, headquartered in London, owned by the Shanghai-based Chinese state-owned automaker SAIC Motor
I accept my mistake, and in one of the comments I mentioned that yes after further research that I found out that this is the UK base company owned by Chinese finances, so yes, I’ll take my words back that this is not the United Kingdom based company. But if you are going as per Wikipedia, do not refer to that because that does not have the latest information.
How much average
13.5 so far
@@WithSameerBhutani is it super mt model
@Shu1253 it’s MT SMART. Super is without sunroof I reckon.
@@WithSameerBhutani ok bro
It’s obviously Chinese SAIC motors (MG Promotors now)…..update yourself or knowingly……lying for paid promotion????
This may be my 7th or 8th comment where I accepted it’s a Chinese Company and I was wrong.
Not paid promotions here. It’s all self funded.
Bhai vaise negative as such koi hai nhi . Dhakke se dhoond rhe hum 😂 So don't wry this is good SUV as compared to Kia Seltos and Creta
Bother there are some serious faults. Wait for the next video and you will be surprised.
Avg toh dekha dete hum ko jhoot mat bolo 13 ki avg hai plz
Next video me dikhai hai. Check that.
What about the power delivery? Many say it is grossly underpowered, especially on highways & hills.
Secondly, most users say the rear seats are uncomfortable for long drives. Is this true ?
My family never questioned about discomfort of rear seats. I’d say I am still to test it on hills so no comments on that yet but I feel it’s decent.
I owned Honda Civic prior to this car and power was amazing since that was 1800 cc and I would say I used to crib a lot when I used to get stuck in Delhi traffic and that I could not drive more than 50KMPH / 60KMPH as the travel speed restrictions on Delhi roads, but I feel this is the good for 80% of my drive which is in city and rest 20% or 30%. Whatever we want to calculate on hills I think I’ll be OK.
@@WithSameerBhutani Thank you. I was bothered about just two things with Astor.
Mileage & the lack of power, especially while overtaking on highways & while climbing uphill with four people inside.
I intend buying the manual transmission, only to ensure, that I get adequate power while required. In the CVT variant, Iam told, that there is some lag in power generation & its transmission to the wheels.
What about mileage in city ? If you could clarify.
Mileage in the city is from 6.5 to 18.5. If I have to explain better if I have covered less distance, for example my home to office which is 5 km I have seen average varies from 6.5 to 9 however, when I go on long rides, I’ve seen it going till 18.5 and I have the recorded videos of that so that makes my overall 12.5 at max.
About overtaking yes I tried taking a truck and another truck was coming from the other side and I felt that I may crash but never happened but yeah, I feel little bit lower compared to my other car or compared to the cars out there. But 1500 cc is what I opted and I am ready to give away that overtaking power.
It all depends what you opt for.
@@WithSameerBhutani For a MT, 6.5 kmpl in city is too less. I was expecting atleast 9-10 kmpl in city conditions. Secondly, one needs decent/adequate power on highways.
It is not for racing. But at the same time, one needs some power while overtaking. It is just not possible to drive on highways without having to overtake at one time or the other, especially on one or two lane highways.
One more thing what I can't understand about Astor is, despite the engine being underpowered, why is the mileage so less ?
@up6427 it may go up after 2nd Service. Let’s see. I’ll keep you posted.
Bhai base lena chahiye k nai?🤔
Power same hai agar Sunroof main buying point nahi hai to lelo.
you forgot one main thing that it’s look fabulous compare to civic
I don’t agree my friend. I’ll choose Civic over this anyday. The seat comfort and road presence was level next.
@@WithSameerBhutaninah bruh...this looks way better than civic
@sahtarwars8386 even I feel that now. Haha
