The carandbike Show - Episode 882

Ducati Panigale V2 is the perfect example of a true-blue Italian sportbike. It's all about power, performance, and speed, and the V2 looks the part, almost mirroring the sporty and purposeful stance of its bigger Panigale V4 siblings. It replaces the Ducati 959 Panigale as Ducati's new middleweight sportbike, and it only gets a minor bump in power, with 155 bhp on offer, and a 955 cc engine, which is closer to 'superbike' territory, than a middleweight. In our review of the Audi S5 Sportback, we covered the driving dynamics, features and looks of this beast. But now is the time for our tech check, which takes a look at the gadgets and technology inside the car. And while the Audi doesn't have a lot going on, there are some spectacular bits. Maruti Suzuki India recently launched a mid-life facelift for its popular compact hatch Swift. Along with a bunch of cosmetic updates, the 2021 Maruti Suzuki Swift also comes in new dual-tone colours, new and updated features, and a more powerful petrol engine. There is a new powertrain as well with the older 1.2-litre K-Series motor replaced with the new-generation 1.2-litre Dual Jet VVT petrol engine that is also seen on the Baleno hatchback. The new engine also comes with increased power output, up from 82 bhp to 88 bhp at 6,000 rpm and 113 Nm of peak torque at 4,200 rpm. This week's carandbike show is action-packed.
