The petrol engine on the Mahindra XUV300 is the same as the one on the KUV100, but there are a lot of changes that have been made to the engine which brings in a whole lot of refinement to the car as also segment leading torque figures
We went to Jaisalmer to meet the new facelifted version of the 2019 Ford Endeavour and drive it on the Thar desert. The SUV comes with several exterior and interior updates, so, let us walk you through them.
The new Honda family look, really comes together and shines on the Civic. While the sedan is not compact in dimension terms, the styling - especially thanks to the sloping coup roofline - makes it look taut and sporty. I like it - and my fears of that tapering roofline causing trouble inside the cabin - were mostly misplaced.
The SsangYong-Mahindra partnership has brought in another new model, which could prove to be the next big thing in the subcompact SUV segment in India. Yes! We are talking about the Mahindra XUV300, based on the SsangYong Tivoli. Here's our first impression of the car!
The new Wagon R gets more character in the face. The style factor comes in with the new headlamp cluster, front grille and all that metal work I was referring to. The floating roof and smartly done taillights complete the job to ensure the car conveys that it has in fact grown wider, and a touch taller.
Toyota, with the Camry hybrid, has found success in India too. The predecessor of this car saw sales of the hybrid version cover 70 per cent sales of the sedan, while the remaining 30 were attributed to the petrol variant.
Skoda's flagship SUV - the Kodiaq - made its India debut in 2017 and since then has been one of the strong competitors in the full size SUV segment in the country. It has been a winner, when it went up against the new generation of the Honda CR-V. When we compared it with the Honda CR-V we said that the Kodiaq lacked a bit of flashiness; and that's because the CR-V brought a lot of bling to the table. But no matter, it looks like Skoda has heard what we said, because it decided that it needed to Jazz up the SUV and brought in the Laurin and Klement variant of the car. First introduced at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show , the SUV made its way to the country in November 2018 and since then, we've been waiting to get our hands on it
While the new generation of the Mini Cooper has grown in size, it still is a lovely little small car. And now, the latest generation has some updates and a bit of a facelift. So, what is new? And is it a lot better? Well, let's find out.
