Price hikes for the Astor SUV have once again been implemented by MG Motor India. In our home market, there are two petrol engines and five variations available for the mid-size SUV, which competes with the likes of the Hyundai Creta as well as the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara. Meanwhile, Toyota recently announced its sales figures for April 2023. The company reported overall sales of 15,510 units last month, including 14,162 domestic dispatches and 1,348 overseas dispatches of the Urban Cruiser Hyryder. Domestic sales for the firm were 15,086 vehicles in the same period last year. It has resulted in a 6% drop in sales. Unlike last month's sales, the firm saw substantial revenue in March 2023. Its sales increased by 9% year-on-year to 18,670 units. In 2022, the company shipped 17,131 units in the domestic market at the same time. According to the automaker, numerous models such as the Innova Hycross, the Urban Cruiser Hyryder, the Innova Crysta, and the Hilux, among others, allowed it to sustain a strong sales performance in March 2023.

The ZS facelift serves as a design inspiration for the MG Astor. The SUV has a redesigned bumper, complete LED hawkeye projector headlights with boomerang-shaped LED daytime running lights, and a striking celestial pattern grille. Additionally, it features heated ORVMs, roof rails, and 17-inch machined alloy wheels inspired by turbines. The SUV's new LED taillamps and redesigned rear bumper with a chrome-accentuated twin exhaust design are located at the back. Five exterior colours are available for the car: Spiced Orange, Aurora Silver, Glaze Red, Candy White, and Starry Black.
The MG Astor comes equipped with a large 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and connected car technology, as well as a completely digital 7.0-inch instrument cluster, and more. The mid-size Astor is one of the most reasonably priced vehicles with ADAS. The high-tech SUV includes artificial intelligence and level 2 autonomous driving technology.
