MG Motor is said to be working on a new-generation iteration of its Astor SUV. Ahead of its global unveil, the new-gen MG Astor was spotted undergoing testing in Australia, where it is called MG ZS.

The spy images showcase the SUV in near-production form. It can be seen featuring a new wider and rounded front grille, sleeker headlamps and a revised front bumper. The upcoming Astor also gets a new tailgate, new wraparound tail lights and an updated rear bumper.

Inside, the new-gen Astor can be seen with a large central touchscreen infotainment screen, a revised central console with storage below and an updated steering wheel; among many others.

MG is yet to confirm the powertrain options for the new-gen Astor. Reports though suggest that depending on the market, it will be offered with petrol and hybrid options. The electric version, the ZS EV, is also expected to receive similar updates in the near future.
