This summer, its going to be hotter than usual. And no, that isn't just the weather gods at work. We have a go at some of the best convertibles available in India in an exhaustive 33-page feature. Honda is ready with a new CR-V for India and we drive it. Its bigger, more spacious and feature-packed but still only a petrol. The Q3 2.0TFSI was a surprise gift from Audi this summer and we test it. On the contrary rival and segment creator BMW have launched the refreshed X1 but now sans the petrol variant. But is it any better? Halley finds out. He also takes a spin in the new X6 and the 90PS diesel-powered Indica Vista.
Jaguar has launched a new 2.2l 4-cylinder diesel engine for the XF and the cat is now ready to claw its way to the top of the luxury car segment in India. Rishaad does an extensive compare to see if the Jaguar can now prey on its rivals. Halley in the meanwhile takes a break from BMWs and checks out the revered Subaru Impreza â" both in road and rally forms. Bert meanwhile goes off-roading at Mahindra's 100th Great Escape held in Rajasthan.
Ashok renews his association with the Thunderbird 500, this time at Royal Enfield's Tour of Rajasthan. Abhay tests the new Hyosung Aquila Pro to see if it can beat the Harleys in the fast maturing Indian premium cruiser market. Not only this, he also gets to ride the new Aprilia Dorsoduro 1200 ABS in India. Shumi goes to India's first Bike Week and comes back with a bag of mixed emotions. Alan tests the claimed 60kmpl fuel efficiency of Honda's new Activa to see if it lives up to the claim.
Ray in the meanwhile drives the India-bound Volvo V40 Cross Country and feels that it could be just the right choice for our sub-standard road conditions.
