Our take
The real reason to pay ₹1.87L more for the Majestor Savvy: level 2 (core suite) ADAS, 360° camera and blind spot monitor. The useful extras on top: touchscreen (12.3" against 8") and wireless CarPlay / Android Auto. The rest of the additions are minor trim. At that price, we would stretch.
- Also on the Majestor Savvy: tyre pressure monitor, panoramic sunroof, powered driver seat (12-way against 8-way) and speakers (12 against 11), and some minor trim beyond that
- Going to the Majestor Savvy, you give up airbags (7 against 6), terrain modes and auto headlamps, which the Fortuner Neo Drive keeps
- Choose the Toyota Fortuner Neo Drive if
- You would rather keep the ₹1.87L than pay for kit you will not miss
- Choose the MG Majestor Savvy if
- You will do long stints in this car and want the daily comforts
