Motoring World - October 2021

In dieser Ausgabe

This month we have the MG Astor on the cover, making a big splash in the mid-size-SUV segment with its tech-laden features. Moving on, for stark contrast there's a bare-bones SUV, the updated Force Gurkha, which can boldly go where few will dare. Speaking of SUVs, Rivan's got the answer to whether the Citroen C5 Aircross can be an affordable alternative to entry-level luxury SUVs as he pitches it against the BMW X1. He also had real fun living out his boy-racer dreams when he drove the Hyundai i20 N Line. And up in the country's capital, Anubhav put the Mercedes-AMG E 53 to a real-world test. As is the case every month, with rising fuel prices across the country, we got behind the wheel of the all-electric version of Tata's compact sedan, the Tigor EV. Meanwhile, Pablo was the luckiest of us all, as he got to spend a dreamy morning with a 1947 Daimler DB18.
Before we head into the MotoFocus section, you'll see us riding a TVS or three. Yes, TVS has kept us (Janak, in particular) busy with its new machines. First, it flew us to the MMRT to test ride the 2021 Apache RR 310, then to Hosur to go around in fun circles on its latest 125cc segment entrant, the Raider. And finally, we had the NTorq 125 Race XP back home. Meanwhile, Kartik was impressed with how Harley-Davidson built something outrageously accomplished like the Pan America 1250 Special. And after all that travelling, Janak still had somthing left in the tank to go all out on the Honda CB200X. We hope you enjoy reading all this, and some more titbits from the world of automobiles, in our October issue!
