Highlights of Auto Today - May 2023 issue:The Maruti Suzuki Jimny is perhaps the most anticipated launch of 2023 and ahead of the price announcement, we've driven the iconic Gypsy's successor to find out if it's as good on and off the road as it is to look at. Besides the Jimny, there's the First Drive review of another car that breaks the mould in the form of the MG Comet micro EV that just might be the perfect fit for the congested urban jungle offering a feature-rich cabin and promising low running costs.

We've also got the best cars from Auto Shanghai 2023 and a trip to Chanderi in the Hyundai Venue N Line to explore the town's often-overlooked past. The two-wheeler section is all about affordable ICE and electric options for commuters with the Ampere Primus, Honda Shine 100 and the Fujiyama Ozone.
