  Ferrari 488 Pista First Drive Review

  Ferrari put the 488 on a strict diet to produce the Pista - yielding a weight savings of as much as 90 kilograms. The engineers have saved 18 kilos in the engine alone. The Pista takes great inspiration from Ferrari's tin-top racers - the 488 GTE that competes in the FIA World Endurance Championship and the Ferrari Challenge contender that takes part in their one-make series.

  Hyundai i20 CVT Petrol Automatic Review

  The Hyundai i20 CVT is available in two variants - the Magna and the Asta. Unlike the manual, which offers a higher, spec Asta (dual tone) and Asta (optional) variant, the CVT gets just the standard Asta, which is the top spec variant in its lineup. So what it looses out on as compared to the Asta(O) are a bunch of features that although aren't crucial, would have been nice to have. You don't get the projector headlamps with integrated LED DRLs for starters. Instead, you get a set of daytime running lights integrated into the bumper just below the fog lamps. And in my opinion, these look fantastic! You do however miss out on auto headlamps and cornering lights. You also get dark grey 15-inch wheels as compared to the larger 16-inch diamond cut wheels that are available on the optional package. You also loose out on the likes of a whole bunch of interior features like the leather wrapped steering wheel and gear knob, and the smart keyless entry with a start-stop button.
