Highlights of Auto Today dated February 2021 issue: The big story this month is Tata’s all-new seven-seat SUV that resurrects the iconic name and we drive the new Safari to find out what it’s all about. There’s another reinvented icon in the February 2021 issue of Auto Today in the form of the Land Rover Defender and more SUVs with previews of the upcoming Skoda Kushaq and Renault Kiger. Tata also launched a hotter variant of the Altroz hatchback with a 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine and we’ve reviewed it along with the new BMW 3 Series Gran Limousine and the 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLC. The Feb ’21 issue features two road tests with the new Honda City taking on its rivals in one and the Honda H’ness CB350, Royal Enfield Meteor and Benelli Imperiale locking horns in the other. The latest issue kicks off the Magnificent India series with Hyundai as we take the new i20 to places previously inaccessible during the winter season. The issue also features a round-up of all the action from the 2021 Dakar Rally, the latest iteration of CES and slew of car and motorcycle products that you should know about. The two-wheeler section is dominated by Triumph with a review of the hard to fault new Tiger 900 and a closer look at the 2021 Speed Triple RS. As always, we’ve got updates from on our long term fleet that includes the Hyundai Creta, Tucson and Kona Electric, Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza and the Meteor and Imperiale. Plus, we’ve got all the latest updates from the Indian and international automotive scene. Enjoy the February issue of Auto Today and until next time, ride and drive safe and keep your mask on in public places.
