In this issue
In a power-packed issue, we take the supercar that the world is scared of - the Nissan GT-R - to the famed BIC F1 circuit to see how it performs on a proper race track. Alongside, we also have the BMW M4 and the Audi RS7 Performance to test their abilities at the track. In the more affordable side of performance cars, we compare the Maruti Baleno in 1.2 and RS guise to see whether the RS can justify its price premium with its performance. We also drive the latest offerings from Volvo - the V90 Cross Country and the face lifted Skoda Octavia. And, we take an exciting journey in the fiery Mercedes C63 S AMG to the longest road tunnel in India - the Chenani-Nashri tunnel.
On the two-wheeler front, we review the new Suzuki GSX-R1000 and compare the Yamaha FZ25 to the TVS Apache RTR200. Also featured is a look at the new BMW X3 from our international partners, and the most extensive coverage of the motorsports scene both in India and internationally.

Force 2 Reckon With
The 2017 Force Gurkha might look identical to its predecessor, but underneath it is in fact a new-generation model.

Recalibrating Harmony
We’ve always maintained that the Octavia is a luxury car in every aspect without the hefty price tag. So, when we got word of an ‘improved’ version, we couldn’t wait to jump into the driver’s seat.

Tamed At The Bic...
We’ve been waiting for a very long time to tame Godzilla at the BIC. The question is, did the GT-R spit fire and send us scurrying for cover – with the BMW & Audi in tow – or were we actually able to calm the beast?

Out Of Order
9 races over, 9 to go. The top four riders are separated by just 10 points, meaning no one really knows where this year’s championship is headed to...
