Recently Asked User Questions
- If you want a car in a more smarter and understated set of clothes, look no further than the Taigun. Even the interior is out and out Volkswagen with a minimalistic layout. The VW also packs a digital driver’s display, a feature that’s absent in the Kushaq. The Taigun has a good amount of features, safety feature wise too it feels sorted right from the base variant. The ride is comfortable enough and more importantly is fun to drive. On the other hand, Creta has been dominating the segment for years and is now in its second generation. The new Creta feels like it’s lifted its game a step up, and in some ways, even a step and a half up with a more sophisticated ride, comfort and features list. But we’re used to Hyundais being leaders of the pack, especially when it comes to features. For a better understanding of compatibility and driving comfort, we would suggest you to take a test drive. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details. Read More: - Hyundai Creta vs Volkswagen Taigun
- Both cars are best in their own forte, The Maruti Suzuki Brezza maintenance the strong fundamentals of space, practicality, and comfort but now gets a stronger tech package, more safety features, and a better automatic transmission. But, it should’ve offered superior interior quality and more exciting drive options. On the other hand, Volkswagen Taigun looks just like a baby VW SUV and a classy one at that. In terms of build, it does feel a tad better than its key rival, the Creta, but falls short in fit and finish levels compared to the Polo and Vento. However, the features and safety equipment on offer are definitely a step up. The quality of features is excellent and the way the Taigun GT drives has to be the most impressive aspect of this entire package. Moreover, we would suggest you visit your nearest dealership and take a test drive. Click on the given link for dealership details and select your desired model and city: dealership.
- Both the cars are from different segments. Volkswagen Taigun is an SUV whereas Volkswagen Virtus is Sedan. The Virtus offers a strong balance of style, space, features, ride comfort, and performance. It has a classy design, spacious interior, intuitive infotainment package, and punchy petrol engines. On the other hand, Taigun isn't stepping up in terms of fit and finish, and although they will be delighted with all the knee room on offer, rear-seat width is still an issue as fitting three people in the back will be a squeeze. But if you look past this, the Volkswagen delivers, and how! It has a good amount of features, safety feature-wise too it feels sorted right from the base variant. The ride is comfortable enough and more importantly is fun to drive. For a better understanding of compatibility and driving comfort, we would suggest you take a test drive. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership.Read more -Volkswagen Virtus First Drive Review: Does The City Need To Sweat?..-Volkswagen Taigun First Drive Review: 10 Reasons Why It Lives Up To The Hype!.

Mg Astor has a very good and powerful engine. Mg will provide the Astor with two petrol powertrain options: 110ps/144 nm 1.5-liter naturally aspirated petrol and a 140 ps/220 nm 1.3-litre turbo-petrol unit. Transmission options will include a 6-speed manual and an 8-speed CVT and a 6-speed automatic (for the turbo-petrol unit). The Astor is 4, 323 mm long, 1, 809 mm wide, 1, 650 mm tall, And has a 2, 585 mm wheelbase. These are very good specifications in the price range.

Mg astor gets an ai assistant which is basically a droid placed on the astor’s dashboard that can interact with you, Perform certain functions and it can also change its expressions! the astor will come loaded with active and passive safety features.It will come with 6 airbags, Traction control, Electronic stability control and hill descent control.This car will be a tough competitor in the segment.

Mg astor is yet to be launched by morgan garage in the indian market and it is already very hyped.People have a lot of expectations from this car and i hope it lives up to the expectations of the people.It is expected to be launched at around 10 lakhs but it would be much better if it is launched at a cheaper price range.As of now the expected launch date is 7th oct.I hope it launches soon.

I am planing to buy a compact suv and i am waiting for the official launch of mg astor.I have high hopes with mg astor in the segment.Mg is expected to price the astor from rs 10 lakh (ex-showroom) onwards.It will have competition with the hyundai creta, Kia seltos, Mg hector, Tata harrier, Nissan kicks, Skoda kushaq, And vw taigun.The segment of compact suv is very tough to compete in.
Hemant Kumar1 few weeks ago -
The compact suv has already started reaching dealerships and unofficial bookings are underway for a token of rs 50, 000.The mg astor gets two petrol engines: 110ps 1.5-litre naturally aspirated and a 140ps 1.3-litre turbo unit, Paired with manual and automatic transmission options.It will come in five broad trims: style, Super, Smart, Sharp, And savvy.I am thinking of buying this car.

Optimum would be 1.2 tsi 4 cylinder.In my opinion, Better option would be 1.2 tsi instead of 1.0tsi/1.5tsi.1.0tsi 3cylinder would be underpowered and noisy for this heavy vehicle.1.5tsi 4 cylinder would be more than required.Optimum would be 1.2 tsi 4 cylinder.

It's the best SUV for real driving enthusiasts, punchy engine, smooth driving, gear throttle is very short. So it's good for city traffic also.

Good to drive Taigun GT plus. Driven 1100kms (50-50 local and highway), average 12kmpl (claimed 17kmpl), really disappointed
Dr few weeks ago -
No educated buyer will suggest VW Taigun after seeing its cost-cutting measures in this video.VW Polo was much much better. Waiting for Renault or Honda's upcoming SUVs.
