The Astor is currently the most affordable car in India to get ADAS with features like adaptive cruise control, high-beam assist, blind-spot monitoring, front collision warning, lane-keep assist, automatic emergency braking, etc. In terms of aesthetic appeal, the Hector is likely to get minor nip and tuck and the powertrains are also expected to remain unchanged.
