First Drive Reviews

Let's face it. A vehicle facelift is usually never really 'exciting' unless you have some kind of mechanical changes instead of just minor cosmetic upgrades. Thankfully, the Volkswagen Polo facelift does have something 'new' to offer.

One of the biggest debuts at the 2014 Delhi Auto Expo, Honda Mobilio is finally set to launch in India soon. This multi utility vehicle has already generated so much buzz in the market, that frankly we can't recall a MUV launch affording so much attention.

Sometime in 2011, after I drove the Nissan Sunny I thought to myself it's a good car. It's got a decent set of engines, the roomiest rear seat, the biggest boot but, there was one big problem - it was built to a budget. Are things any different with the new car? We find out.

The 3rd generation which made its global debut towards the end of 2013 sports the new bolder face with the kidney grille getting wider and bigger. But having said that the car doesn't look too heavy up front, because unlike the X3 where remember thinking the bumper looks too heavy, this one has been broken up a little bit.

The latest from the house of Mercedes-Benz is the latest iteration of its best-selling sedan, that has in the past seemed almost humble in comparison to most its portfolio-mates. And now for the first time in many years, it is looking like it can be a flag-bearer for the brand.

A Toyota like you've never seen before! You initially think this is quite a tall claim for a car that's a best-seller around the world, but the 2014 Corolla Altis does make a whole new impression the first time you set eyes on it.

Taking cues from the Cross Polo, Toyota took the sedate looking Etios Liva, put it on a steroid cycle, slapped on a lot of SUV-ish bits and brought in the Etios Cross. Basically think of it as the rough and ready version of the road going Liva. Which it isn't.

To take on highly successful products like the Maruti Suzuki Dzire and the Honda Amaze in a highly competitive segment might be intimidating for some car makers but not for Hyundai. With an attractive price tag for both the petrol and diesel variants and built on the same platform as the popular Grand i10 hatch, we are not surprised with the high confidence levels.
