And the winners are in the 4W category, the BMW i4, Hyundai Tucson, Kia Carens, Volkswagen Virtus Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara; in the 2W category, the Suzuki Katana, Ola S1 Pro Royal Enfield Hunter 350. Meanwhile, our Performance Car of the Year is the Ferrari 296 GTB and, rounding out the top-ten is our Performance Bike of the Year, the Ducati Streetfighter V2.

The i4 is an EV infused with BMW's DNA of fun-to-drive, the Tucson is dripping with style and refinement, the Carens shows that family cars needn't be staid or boring, the Virtus proves that sedans are still the most rewarding from behind the wheel, while the Grand Vitara brings hybrid tech to the people.

On the two-wheel front, Suzuki claims the top spot again this year with another legend, the Katana, the Ola S1 Pro flies the EV flag very convincingly indeed, and Royal Enfield pulls another winner out of the hat.
