Hyundai Venue vs MG Astor: which should you buy?
The Hyundai Venue starts at ₹8.00L against the MG Astor's ₹9.79L ex-showroom Delhi, so it is ₹1.79L cheaper to get into.
They run together up to ₹15.30L, where the Astor tops out. Past that only the Venue has anything left to sell you, up to ₹15.65L.
Fuel is a real difference here: the Venue comes in petrol and diesel, the Astor in petrol.
Same money, which car?
Take ₹15.30L to both showrooms and you come out with the Venue HX 10 at ₹14.65L or the Astor Savvy Pro at ₹15.30L, the Venue leaving ₹0.65L of that in your pocket.
Our take
The real reason to pay ₹0.65L more for the Astor Savvy Pro: blind spot monitor, SOS emergency call (E-call / B-call) and sunroof (Panoramic against Single-pane). The useful extras on top: hill descent control and powered driver seat (6-way against 4-way). The rest of the additions are minor trim. At that price, we would stretch.
- The Astor swallows the most luggage at 488 litres
- Also on the Astor Savvy Pro: rain-sensing wipers, and some minor trim beyond that
- Going to the Astor Savvy Pro, you give up ADAS (Level 2 (full suite) against Level 2 (core suite)), touchscreen (12.3" against 10.1") and drive modes, which the Venue HX 10 keeps
- Choose the Hyundai Venue HX 10 if
- You would rather keep the ₹0.65L than pay for kit you will not miss
- Choose the MG Astor Savvy Pro if
- Safety kit matters more to you than keeping the money
