Upcoming Suvs News

Hyundai has released a couple of detailed teaser images of the upcoming Kona subcompact SUV. The Kona is a very important product for the South Korean carmaker and it is likely that the subcompact SUV might come to India.

Mahindra has been readying up its popular selling SUV for a comprehensive update that is now confirmed to arrive later this year. The Mahindra Scorpio facelift is likely to be launched towards the end of July or early August 2017 in the country and will receive major upgrades to its aesthetics, in addition to getting new features on-board.

Kia has unveiled the design sketches for its new upcoming subcompact SUV, the Stonic. The new Stonic is essentially Kias version of the new Hyundai Kona and will eventually make it to India once Kia officially launches its cars in India. The new Stonic has a more crossover like design language as compared to the larger SUVs from KIA (or Hyundai) that features a more upright and more conventional SUV stance and design. The Stonic will be available in global markets by the end of 2017 and will be highly customisable. When it does make it to India, expect the new Stonic SUV to be sub 4-meters in length and go up against some tough competition like the Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza, the Ford Ecosport and a plethora of SUVs from Mahindra. The Stonic will also take on the upcoming Tata Nexon.

Range Rover Velar derives its name from the original Range Rover prototypes of 1969. In India, the new SUV will face competition from names such as the Volvo XC90, Jaguar F-Pace, Porsche Macan, BMW X5, and Audi Q7.

Two new test mules of the upcoming Ford EcoSport facelift were spotted testing in India again. While the overall silhouette remains the same, the subcompact SUV will see a plethora of changes to the styling and interior.
