First Drive Reviews

The Toyota Corolla is the largest selling car in the world with over 40 million units sold across the years and generations. In India, the Corolla was launched in 2003 and continues to be the best selling car in its category. The current generation Corolla Altis has been with us for a few years now and has finally been put under the scalpel for a midlife nip and tuck making, it much much better looking than before and also much sleeker. We drove the top of the line diesel powered car, which, badged GL is priced at just over Rs 19 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) to see if the updates have made it a better car.

The Volvo S60 Polestar is all set to be launched in India and we have already driven it. Polestar is the name of Volvo's performance car division that has its roots in the Polestar Racing team that the Swedish company used to support. Here's how it drives.

The Mercedes-Benz AMG GT was the first car to be designed and built completely by the AMG division and it was launched internationally over two years ago. Around the world and in India, the AMG GT is the erstwhile replacement for the mighty SLS AMG and obviously, those are quite large shoes to fit into. The AMG GT though has been received well around the world and it even won the Car And Bike 2016 Sportscar Of The Year Award. And now, for the 2017 model year, AMG has decided to freshen it up a little bit with a slightly updated look, more power, more tech and most importantly, a convertible version.

Mercedes-Benz has just recently launched the new E-Class in India. We are the only market in the world that gets a right hand drive long wheelbase variant and just like with most luxury cars, you get two engine options. The E200 turbocharged 4-cylinder petrol or the E350d V6 twin-turbo diesel. Of course, both get rear wheel drive as the E-Class has always had and both will sell like hot cakes even though they are priced at quite a premium over everything else in the segment. The E200 petrol is aimed at chauffer driven audience who wants comfort and nothing else and the E350d is aimed at the buyer who will still occasionally want to drive but prefers the frugality of a diesel engine. But what if you insist you want a petrol powered car, you also want something fun to drive yourself and you still want all that luxury and comfort that the new E-Class offers. The E43 then is aimed right at you!

The Tata Tigor will be the third sub 4-meter, subcompact sedan from Tata Motors. Going up against the likes of the Maruti Suzuki Swift Dzire, Honda Amaze, Hyundai Xcent, Volkswagen Ameo and the Ford Figo Aspire, the Tata Tigor has the potential of being in its very own entry level subcompact sedan segment if priced considerably lower than its competition. Incidentally, Tata Motors originally invented the whole sub 4-meter, subcompact sedan segment in the first place. So, let us take you through the petrol and diesel engines, the features on the Tata Tigor and most importantly if it is worth your money!
