Highlights of Auto Today April 2026:

Another action-packed issue of Auto Today is here, packed with the latest drives, reviews and features. Leading the lineup is VinFast’s third India-bound product—a seven-seater MPV taking on rivals like BYD’s eMax 7 and Kia Carens Clavis EV. Can it challenge established players? Our detailed review has the answers.

We also feature the newest convertible from BMW, powered by the M340i engine, delivering performance with the thrill of open-top driving. Another highlight is the Mercedes-Benz G450d, a modern evolution replacing the 400d—blending legacy with updated engineering.

The two-wheeler section showcases fresh launches, dominated by EVs. These include the Flying Flea C6—Royal Enfield’s first electric—alongside Yamaha Aerox E and EC-06. The EV lineup is completed by the revived Kinetic DX+. On the ICE front, we review the downsized Scrambler 400 X (now 350cc) and the updated Guerrilla 450 Apex.

Beyond reviews, explore features on Volkswagen’s iconic TSI engine and highlights from the Drivers of Change 10,000km journey. The issue also includes new automotive gadgets, a long-term report on the Kia Carens Clavis EV, and a farewell to the Royal Enfield Goan Classic 350.

Stay updated with global auto news across cars, bikes and motorsport. Grab your copy—and remember: drive safe, wear seatbelts, and always ride with a helmet.
