In this issue

egends revisited, new challengers tested, and journeys that push the limit — the September issue of autoX is here.
This month’s highlight is a clash of icons, as we bring the Toyota Land Cruiser 80 Series head-to-head with the modern 300 GR-S to ask - which is the true G.O.A.T? We also welcome Tesla’s long-awaited Model Y to Indian roads and get an early taste of Volvo’s stylish EX30 EV.
On two wheels, we ride the KTM 160 Duke, Triumph Thruxton 400, BMW F900 GSA, Hero Glamour X, and TVS Ntorq 150. Mahindra previews its Global Vision 2027 with four bold SUV concepts, while we also put the sharper Renault Kiger facelift through its paces. Adventure comes courtesy of an epic Audi Q7 road-trip to Ladakh, while the Mercedes-AMG CLE 53 shows off everyday usability with AMG muscle.
As always, the latest from the world of motorsport, industry, and tech rounds off the issue.

As modern cars become digital microprocessors on wheels, where does that leave us - the enthusiasts?

In the late 1950s, facing financial ruin, BMW was on the verge of being bought out by another German carmaker – one with a three-pointed star in its logo.

Emotions are an invisible but essential component of any classic or vintage machine. It was about time someone made them visible, right? Ready to go on a Joyride?

Once upon a time, I wrote extensively about classic and vintage cars. Most of the features I wrote made the car the hero, as I exclusively focused on it rather than its provenance or its ownership, which was inevitably a passing mention.
