Pure Indulgence
The new 5th generation Long Wheel Base E-Class from Mercedes Benz India is not all about speed, power and torque. It is a lot about Indulgence. Where else in the world will you find in a car, a rear seat so spacious and an ambient lighting with 64 different shades for your cabin that light up areas on the dashboard, under the front seats, on the door trims, etc?
Maruti Suzuki Baleno RS Real Sport
Maruti Suzuki may be the No.1 car manufacturer in the country and their cars may be the best when it comes to utilitarian advantages. But driving a stock car from Maruti Suzuki on an international high speed race circuit could seem a bit farfetched an idea.

Tata Tigor: Styled To Perfection
All of us who were there at the recent Geneva Motor Show in Switzerland would vouch for the fact that there is another word besides Namo that is getting popular by the day and that is TaMo from Tata Motors. The company pleasantly surprised visitors with a brilliantly designed car that goes by the name of Racemo, besides of course showcasing the Geneva edition of the Tigor and the Nexon.
Awakening
Tata Motors began work on the Hexa a few years back. They tested it over eight hundred thousand kilometers, in temperatures ranging from minus twenty degrees to upwards of fifty degrees Celsius, over three continents and varied terrains. The Hexa is not just another premium utility vehicle; it is symbolic of a giant awakening from its slumber.
Queen on Wheels
There was a personal note from one of the senior officials of Volvo Auto India that greeted me when I reached Jodhpur in the state of Rajasthan for test driving the new Volvo S90 sedan. In his note he described the new Volvo S90 car as the “Queen on wheels in this land of Maharajas”.
Fast, Furious & Green

A Reckoning
Every year we see slew of new products being launched in the automotive market, some are me too products while others post a stiff competition for contending brands. It is a rare occasion when a game changing product is launched and Skoda has done just that with their new Rapid. It packs a lot of features and gets a right mix performance and comfort, a reckoning long expected from Skoda. We got a chance to take the new Rapid for a spin and here is what we made of it.
Braveheart
They say making bold decisions is for the foolhardy and wisdom only comes with age. But it is the courage of brave hearts that has brought mankind to the frontier we are now at. Decisions which redefine standards may be considered reckless but infact usher in the era of a brave new world, where change may be an uphill climb but only for the betterment of us all. Bajaj in many ways has pronounced change and has ushered in an era of evolution which will redefine motorcycling for Indians.

Italian Stallion
When I first laid my eyes on the Benelli 600 GT it reminded me a lot of the movie Rocky. The film is based around a struggling boxer Rocky Balboa who eventually ends up becoming one of the most celebrated boxers of all time and is fondly called the Italian Stallion.
Rumble in the Jungle
When 30 massive 4X4 vehicles with souped up engines, high profile tyres, super tough suspensions, rock solid gear boxes and gritty drivers get into the jungle, there is a rumble that everybody gets to hear.
