In this issue

We had to do something epic for our eighth anniversary issue, and it doesn’t get any bigger than smashing and setting over 80 national records. We took four Mahindra XUV700s to Mahindra’s incredible SUV Proving Track, in an attempt to break the 5-year-old national record for the maximum distance travelled by a car/SUV in 24 hours. Of course we broke the record, setting a new benchmark of 4364.73km, and all four XUVs went on to cross 4000km creating history in the process. This is a story of endurance of both man and machine, being pushed to their absolute limits. Sharing space on the cover is an incredible road trip we took with Mercedes-AMG owners on the AMG Emotion Tour. There was so much desirable metal on the road that day — from the A 35 and GLA 35 all the way up to the mental GT 63 S and GLE 63 S.
There is plenty more inside the issue: we’ve got reviews of SUVs from either end of the spectrum, the Tata Punch on one end, and the Aston Martin DBX on the other. That’s not all the SUV action we have — we’ve also reviewed the MG Astor, Force Gukha and Renault Kiger CVT. We’ve gone on epic road trips with the Skoda Kushaq, Volkswagen Taigun and Mahindra Bolero Neo. We’ve taken on the most incredible passes in Ladakh in the Mahindra Thar. And we’ve got proper supercar action in there as well with the Ferrari Roma taking on its rivals, Lexus LC500, Bentley Continental GT and Aston Martin DB11 AMR. We’ve also set off on a road trip with a bunch of Lamborghini owners for a weekend of thrills, in an Urus.
Add to that all the action on two wheels: the ballistic Triumph Speed Triple RS, the TVS Raider, Honda’s CB200X and the TVS Jupiter. Our tuned section has fan favourites including the VW Polo GT and the Mahindra Thar, not to mention a feature on 10 years of Race Concepts.
