This year we saw Maruti Suzuki bring in the second generation of the Dzire subcompact sedan and there were a lot of expectations from it. While its predecessor was the highest selling car in its segment ever since it was launched, it was always criticised for the way it looked post the D-pillar. However, with the new generation, Maruti Suzuki has made sure that it doesn't look like a hatch-converted-into- a-sedan. The new generation looks stunning and yes more like a sedan and that's just one of the many reasons why it won the 2018 CNB subcompact car of the year.

I've been fortunate to get my hands on many sportscars and supercars in the last few years and have fallen in love with most of them. The R8 is pretty much right up there with the best on my list. The exterior may not have changed too much from its predecessor but the revamped interior is quite beautifully put together.1 min read

Cyrus Dhabhar | Dec 29, 2016Ford Mustang: The NDTV Performance Car of the Year 2017The Mustang impressed the CNB Awards Jury at the Buddh International Circuit too.
