In this issue

In the June 2018 issue of Motown India magazine, we have the compact luxury SUV Volvo XC40 on the cover. We got a chance to get behind the wheels of the new XC40 and drive it around in Hyderabad. The Volvo XC40 which is doing remarkably well in the markets of Europe and China, will be launched in July 2018 in the Indian market. We have reviewed the Mercedes AMG E63S 4Matic+, the new Ford EcoSport S, the Royal Enfield Thunderbird 500X and the Honda XBlade. We have a loaded B2B section too, with a special report on Mahindra & Mahindra, based on what the company had to say during the analyst meet, immediately after disclosing their annual FY18 sales and profit figures.

Starry Eyed

The 162.71cc engine on the X Blade is shared with the Unicorn and the Hornet. So naturally the engine is well tuned for city riding and it feels very refined. The bike feels very quick and that has been helped by the relatively less kerb weight of 140ks.
