Range Rover Evoque Convertible Driven

Land Rover stunned and surprised the world by showing a Range Rover Evoque convertible concept, at the 2012 New York Auto Show. It made it to production only in 2016, and many baulked at the idea. But a couple of years down the line, that idea is suddenly looking like a successful masterstroke. At the time though, JLR was quite categorical saying India will not get the convertible at all. That decision has now been changed, with the Evoque convertible being ushered in as a marque-defining model.

  2018 Aprilia SR125 First Ride Review

  The Aprilia SR125 plays younger sibling to the much-acclaimed Aprilia SR150, backed by the same components and design but featuring a smaller engine, slightly higher fuel-efficiency and a lower price tag too. Does it really make a smart buy though? We find out.

  Exclusive: Mahindra Genze Electric Scooter Review

  Electric mobility is no longer a thing of the future restricted to the likes of science fiction literature or cinema. It is here, now and the shift from internal combustion to cleaner battery powered vehicles is inevitable. And while here in India we might not all be driving around in our fancy Tesla just yet, there is an ever growing electrification movement that is gripping the nation.
