Highlights of Auto Today dated September 2020 issue: With the September 2020 issue, Auto Today completes five years of bringing you all the latest reviews of cars and motorcycles from the domestic as well as the international market, a wide array of features including epic drives from the remotest parts of not just India, but also the world, and the latest developments from the global automotive scene. The September issue gives you the lowdown on the second generation Mahindra Thar and packs in plenty of reviews including that of the highly anticipated Kia Sonet compact SUV, India's first luxury electric vehicle, the Mercedes-Benz EQC and first drive reviews of the VW T-Roc. With the advent of BS6 several car manufacturers have introduced new engine options for older models and we've gotten our hands on the Renault Duster with a powerful 1.3-litre turbocharged petrol and the Maruti Suzuki S-Cross 1.5 petrol. A few months ago the Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza switched to petrol power and we pit the popular compact SUV against arch-rival Hyundai Venue to determine which compact SUV is the best. We have also tested and compared the Toyota Innova Crysta and the Kia Carnival in a bid to figure out whether spending a lakh or two extra on the Carnival over the Innova is worth it. We at Auto Today just can't keep ourselves from hitting the road and in this month's issue, we head to the Rajasthan's Shekhawati region aka India's open-air art gallery. Switching from four wheels to two, we've ridden the eye-catching Husqvarna Svartpilen and we've welcomed the Hero XPulse 200 BS6 into our fleet. Speaking of which, this month we bid adieu to the mightily impressive Renault Triber and tell you the things we liked and the ones we didn't. Enjoy the September issue of Auto Today and until next month, ride and drive safe!
