MG announces personalized MG Shield Packages for MG Astor. This makes the SUV even more attractive amongst its rivals. This special package offers Astor customers the flexibility to choose and personalize their ownership package. This includes warranty extension, protection plans and more. MG is offering more than 180 different combinations to choose from. Astor comes with a standard 3-3-3 package. This includes a warranty of three years/unlimited kilometres, three years of Roadside Assistance and three Labor-Free periodic services. Furthermore, MG is also offering its customers an assured buyback plan. Under this, customers will get 60 per cent of Astor’s ex-showroom price on completion of three years of purchase.
The SUV has received quite a positive response from the market. This is evident from the fact that the lot for 2021 is entirely booked. In fact, the bookings for the 2021 models closed within minutes since the opening of the booking. Priced very aggressively, which starts at INR 9.78 lakh (ex-showroom), Astor is set to disrupt the mid-size SUV segment. The demand for SUVs is increasing day by day, and the introduction of newer models will further push more customers to this segment. Customers get the option of two engine choices, a 1.5-litre VTI-Tech petrol engine that makes 110 PS of power and 144 Nm of torque. And a 1.4-litre turbo-petrol motor that produces 140 PS of power and 220 Nm of torque.
Astor main USP is its cutting edge technology and features that are not available with any other car in its segment. Moreover, MG has introduced a new concept of Car-as-a-Platform that enables the car with a host of features enabled by software. This includes services and subscriptions in the areas of utility, security, consumer payment, entertainment, and more. Moreover, MG has also confirmed that they will add more features to this platform to make the ownership experience even more exciting.
