MG Automotive has announced the on‑road price of its second flagship SUV, the MG Astor, in Manipal as of July 2026. Customers can now expect to pay ₹12.76 lakh, inclusive of all taxes, registration and insurance.
The compact SUV, powered by a 1.5‑liter turbo‑charged petrol engine that delivers 161 bhp, features advanced infotainment, safety packages and a spacious cabin. MG Astor follows the larger MG Gloster and now competes directly with models such as the Tata Harrier, Hyundai Creta and Mahindra XUV500.
Pricing the MG Astor at ₹12.76 lakh puts it within reach of the growing middle‑class segment in Udupi district and beyond, offering high‑tech features at a competitive price point. The launch coincides with the start of the Christmas‑New Year sale season, giving buyers an attractive option for family transportation. Source: Google News – Manipal.
