Pulling off a surprise, Skoda may also introduce the Superb Facelift with a new plug-in hybrid powertrain which was expected in the next-generation model. For the first time in the history, Skoda will be offering a hybrid model and we are expecting it to borrow the powertrain from the Volkswagen Passat GTE. The same 1.4-litre, turbocharged TFSI petrol motor which powers the Audi A4 is expected to be coupled with an electric motor in the upcoming Skoda Superb. We have seen the same powertrain earlier at the 2016 Auto Expo in the Volkswagen Passat GTE plug-in-hybrid variant in which it develops 212 bhp and 400 Nm of peak torque. The 2020 Skoda Superb is likely to get it in the same state of tune.

What looks as a regular Range Rover is actually a bit special and has been designed by the Special Vehicle Operations (SVO) division. It's been finished in a bespoke zero gravity blue paint and the British carmaker says it has taken inspiration from the depth and intensity of the night sky. If the paint job won't articulate its exclusivity, but the Astronaut badging on the tailgate will surely do. In-turn, there are badges in the doorjambs also and the puddle lamps project the image of the Space Ship Two which will fly the customers to space.

The soon-to-be-launched Toyota Glanza has recently been spotted again and this time around we get to see the car's cabin as well. Similar to the new Toyota Glanza's exterior, the cabin too is largely identical to the Maruti Suzuki Baleno's cabin, save for the Toyota badge on the steering wheel.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles India (Jeep's parent company) has partnered with Orix Auto Infrastructure to offer its vehicles on lease. The service won't be limited to the Jeep Compass or any particular model. All FCA cars and even those which will be launched India later will be available on lease.

Though it's the base variant, it's not just bear minimum in terms of features. The W3 variant gets power adjustable ORVMs, Engine immobilizer, electrically operated dual HVAC and even projector headlamps.

McLaren is finally coming up with an all-new Grand Tourer and is just calling it "GT". As we are aware that McLarens are categorised into three segments- Sports, Super and Ultimate Series, the upcoming GT will be positioned between the Sports and Super segment. In fact, McLaren has said that the GT will be slightly different having a mix of cross-country abilities and McLaren's dynamic and agile characteristics. The McLaren GT also takes inspiration from the Speedtail.

The new Mahindra TUV300 Facelift comes with a host of cosmetic updates both on the outside and inside the cabin. Read on to know how different the 2019 TUV300 is from the outgoing model.

The 2019 Mini John Cooper Works has been launched in the country and is priced at Rs. (ex-showroom India). It takes the CBU route into the country and there's a lot to love about the car. Mini had brought us the JCW Pro Edition in 2017 and it was a riot but was limited to just 20 units, and now we get the hardcore Mini Cooper in the new avatar in India. This is the facelifted version of the car which has been launched in international markets already.
