Car Reviews

Of course, every car needs a bit of a refresh every few years and that is exactly what Mercedes-Benz India has done too. But, if you expect this to be a noticeable difference, you might be disappointed.

The new generation of the Audi Q5 is a comprehensively improved vehicle. Not that the last car had glaring flaws - after all it has been a hit since its 2008 launch. But yes 8 years really called for a new model. And so 1.6 million units later the next generation car is ready to roll. The new Q5 has many changes and firsts on it, but one most significant to the start the story with, is that it's being built outside Germany.

Its design language speaks forms that are quite unique among such cars. It's been styled according to the latest trends within the Skoda brand, and maintains the new family look.

Like the Octavia, the Skoda Rapid has also been an underrated car and we strongly believe that the Czech based car manufacturer should have introduced this facelift at least a year ago, but well, better late than never.

The boom in the SUV segment in India is quite obvious and with the Creta doing really well even at almost Rs 16 lakh, there was definitely a market for a slightly more premium SUV. And this is why the new Tucson fits perfectly well in Hyundais SUV portfolio, right slap bang in the space between the Creta and the Santa Fe.

We drive Renault's much-awaited Kwid AMT and have quite some positive opinions about it. Read out comprehensive review to find if its actually better than the competitors' offerings.

We already had the RS7 in India and yes we loved it, because it had a crazy amount of horsepower packed into a car that more or less was a nice looking luxury sedan. But Audi thought that 552bhp is not enough, which is why they increased the boost in this one and calls it the RS7 Performance.

The first impression I want to put down for you is that the new Fortuner is indeed a better, more refined and better-finished car. And while it has taken its time to get to India, I am glad it is finally here and Toyota has launched the new Fortuner at Rs 25.92 lakh for the petrol and Rs 31.12 lakh for the diesel.
