Highlights of Auto Today - January 2024 issue:The contents of the first issue of 2024 highlight the increasing shift of the automotive industry from traditional propulsion towards electric mobility. And leading the charge is homegrown car maker Tata Motors. The latest from the manufacturer is the Punch.ev, an entry-level electric SUV that slots in below the popular Nexon.ev and our review tells you what makes it ideal for those looking to make the switch to EVs at the affordable end of the spectrum. More Tata EVs are on their way and we tell you all about them and their expected launch dates in our Top Story. We've driven another EV for the January 2024 issue in the form of the Volkswagen ID.7, and although it isn't coming to India any time soon, it makes for a great showcase of Volkswagen's ID family of electric cars, some of which are expected to go on sale in India in the coming years. Taking centre stage on the cover for the latest issue is one of India's best-selling SUVs, the Hyundai Creta, which has received a comprehensive makeover making it better than before and our review tells you exactly why. The list of new car reviews also includes the Kia Sonet facelift, BMW 740i, and the Mercedes-Benz GLS facelift. Strong focus on EVs continues in the Features section with the latest automotive tech and future concepts from CES 2024 and the Dakar Rally that saw Audi claim victory with the electrified RS Q e-tron. The Indian flag flew high at the event with Hero MotoSports securing a podium finish and Harith Noah winning the Rally2 class. In the two-wheelers section, we bring you the First Ride review of the Aprilia RS 457 having tested it on the track and take the updated Bajaj Chetak electric scooter for a spin. As always, there are updates on our long-term fleet that includes the Hyundai Ioniq 5, Hyundai Verna, Hyundai Exter, Maruti Suzuki Jimny, MG Comet and the Royal Enfield Himalayan. Plus, there are updates on all the latest happenings from the domestic and international automotive world. Enjoy the latest issue of Auto Today magazine and remember to always buckle up in a car, and strap a helmet on if you're riding a two-wheeler.
