Awakening

Tata Motors began work on the Hexa a few years back. They tested it over eight hundred thousand kilometers, in temperatures ranging from minus twenty degrees to upwards of fifty degrees Celsius, over three continents and varied terrains. The Hexa is not just another premium utility vehicle; it is symbolic of a giant awakening from its slumber.

Queen on Wheels

There was a personal note from one of the senior officials of Volvo Auto India that greeted me when I reached Jodhpur in the state of Rajasthan for test driving the new Volvo S90 sedan. In his note he described the new Volvo S90 car as the “Queen on wheels in this land of Maharajas”.

A Reckoning

Every year we see slew of new products being launched in the automotive market, some are me too products while others post a stiff competition for contending brands. It is a rare occasion when a game changing product is launched and Skoda has done just that with their new Rapid. It packs a lot of features and gets a right mix performance and comfort, a reckoning long expected from Skoda. We got a chance to take the new Rapid for a spin and here is what we made of it.

Braveheart

They say making bold decisions is for the foolhardy and wisdom only comes with age. But it is the courage of brave hearts that has brought mankind to the frontier we are now at. Decisions which redefine standards may be considered reckless but infact usher in the era of a brave new world, where change may be an uphill climb but only for the betterment of us all. Bajaj in many ways has pronounced change and has ushered in an era of evolution which will redefine motorcycling for Indians.
