Note: Since the MG Astor is a petrol-only offering, we’ll only be comparing the petrol variants of its opponents.

Takeaways: – 

• The performance figures of the MG Astor are quite a par with its Korean rivals. However, its mileage figures are the least here.

• Thanks to the Active Cylinder Technology, the 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engines of the German siblings are the most frugal mills despite being the most powerful among all. However, their 1.0-litre TSI units are thirstier with automatic transmission than their manual counterpart. 

• The next on the list is Kia and Hyundai’s shared powertrain options, with all of them promising to deliver between 16.5kmpl to 16.9kmpl.

• The Kicks-Duster duo is the third least fuel-efficient SUV here with the torquiest turbocharged petrol engine. 

Note: – It is worth noting that these figures are based on internal testing in various conditions and they might vary with the traffic conditions and your driving behaviour.
