Upcoming Suvs News

The Kicks SUV sold in international markets is based on Nissan's V platform, but we expect the one coming to India to be based on the M0, a platform which is currently used by Renault for the Duster, Lodgy and even the Captur.

The launch of the Q5 petrol variant does not come as a surprise to us, as Audi had already announced that it plans to add more petrol variants to its portfolio by 2020 in India.

The popularity for SUVs is only going to grow further and manufacturers are working in overdrive mode to develop new, compact and smarter utility vehicles that not only command higher volumes but are also more advanced than before. But, just how much has the compact SUV segment grown in the recent years? Well, a survey report by UK-based car comparison and automotive market research firm - Jato - concludes that the global growth of SUV demand is all set to multiply with no signs of deceleration.

Jaguar Land Rover India has started taking bookings for the 2018 Range Rover SVAutobiography and Range Rover Sport SVR. Both these vehicles have received upgrades from the Special Vehicle Operations (SVO) team, which sees an upgradation in the feature and engine departments. The Range Rover Sport SVR is the fastest and most capable Land Rover SUV and the 2018 version gets a whole bunch of updates. To begin with it comes with an uprated 5-litre V8 which churns out 567 bhp. The supercharged V8 powers the car from 0 to 100 kmph in just 4.5 seconds.

Isuzu will soon launch the 'X-Power' editions of the MU-X SUV and the D-Max pickup truck in China.

Images of Mahindra's upcoming full-size SUV, based on the SsangYong Rexton, have recently surfaced online and this time around we get to see the car in a new silver exterior colour. Essentially, it will be the same G4 SsangYong Rexton that will be just rebadged in India with Mahindra branding and evidently a new name as well.

The official brochure of the new-generation Suzuki Jimny has been leaked online revealing a bunch of new information that was previously unknown. The brochure confirms that the small 4x4 SUV from the Japanese carmaker will come in two version - the Standard base model and a slightly bigger and more equipped Jimny Sierra and both will be offered in 3 trims each - XG, XL and XC.

Images of a prototype SUV based on the Tata H5X concept have yet again surfaced online. Tata Motors has been extensively testing the SUV in various parts of the country, and this time around, the test mule was spotted in Ooty.
