The Skoda Superb sedan is due for an update later this month and the Czech car maker has given us the first official glimpse of the updated model with the new sketches. The newly released sketches point at subtle upgrades on the Toyota Camry rival while retaining the trademark butterfly grille, albeit with redesigned headlamps, bumper and possibly new alloy wheels too. The Skoda Superb facelift will break cover at the 2019 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship in the Slovakian capital, Bratislava. The current generation Superb has been on sale since 2015 and the update comes as a mid life-cycle to keep up with the competition.

car&bike Team | May 7, 2019Hyundai Venue: Exterior Explained In DetailThe first production-spec Hyundai Venue has rolled out of the assembly line at the Korean carmaker's Chennai plant and we are just weeks away from its launch. The Hyundai Venue will go on sale in India on May 21 which is when the prices will be announced. As we have mentioned earlier, the Venue being a subcompact SUV will have to take a tough fight. Its rivals have been a blockbuster for their respective brands. In fact, we just got to know that Mahindra has bagged over 26,000 bookings for the XUV300 and the number itself speaks of the success. Credit also should be given to the design of these models. All of them have a different demeanour and their designs have been well received in the market. So it was necessary for Hyundai to design the Venue in a way which would set it apart and give its own identity. Well, we have seen the car at its unveiling and here is our take on its looks.1 min read
car&bike Team | May 6, 2019BMW 8 Series Gran Coupe Teased; To Be Unveiled In JuneBMW came up with a rather interesting strategy to reveal the 8 Series range. Two of the best looking models of the line-up- the two-door coupe and convertible were shown first and they just blew our mind. And finally the four-door Gran Coupe has followed. Though the teaser image reveals the side of the Gran Coupe which looks gracious and sumptuous, the front and rear are expected to be identical to its two-door counterpart. However, the wheelbase will be larger than the Coupe version, given that it will seat four. The sharp flowing character lines build upon the aesthetics and the rising shoulder line looks strong throughout its length. The low slung stance further keeps the sporty quotient intact.1 min read

car&bike Team | May 6, 2019Exclusive: Wagon R Based 7 Seater MPV May Launch As A Nexa Offering In June 2019The car with the powerhouse brand - Maruti Suzuki Wagon R - recently moved to a larger platform and new engines at the start of the year. One of the key reasons Maruti did that was to be able to also sport a larger wheelbase 3-row MPV version of the car with a 7-Seater USP. That vehicle is now ready for launch, and is likely to be sold exclusively through Nexa - Maruti's premium retail channel. It is a decision Maruti is still finalising according to sources. The reason for the dilemma is the fact that Wagon R sales have shrunk - since the new car is bigger and positioned as a higher model than the previous car, which served as a massive volumes model given its entry positioning.1 min read
