The Astor is managing to stand out in the segment with its looks, tech and upmarket cabin experience. And the rest of the elements like drive and comfort are also looking promising. The only chink in its armour is looking to be the cabin width for three at the back, boot space and missing headline features. However, if MG can get the price right between Rs 10 lakh to Rs 18 lakh ex-showroom the Astor could well be among the favourites to pick in the segment. On the other hand, the Compass continues to excel at being itself. It remains a powerful yet easy SUV to drive that combines a cushioned ride experience with excellent corner stability to deliver an un-SUV like experience. Jeep’s sweetened the pot with an all new interior which makes the experience more premium than before. It's also added many features that, to be honest, should have been there from before keeping the Compass’ price in mind.
Both the cars are good in their forte. The Astor manages to stand out in the segment with its looks, tech and upmarket cabin experience. And the rest of the elements like drive and comfort look promising as well. On the other hand, the Taigun, apart from a few fit and finish issues, feels like a proper Volkswagen. Finally a worthy upgrade for the Polo and Vento owners. For a better understanding of compatibility and driving comfort, we would suggest you to take a test drive.
