autoX - April 2018

Dans ce numéro

Can’t wait to find out how Kia cars compare to their rivals in India? Fret not, we’ve got that covered! In our April issue, you can have a taste of what Kia cars are all about, as we take two of the firm’s global best-sellers – Rio and Sportage – on Indian roads for the first time. And just to see how different they’re from their platform-sharing sister-brand products, the inclusion of the Hyundai Elite i20 and Tucson in this feature was inevitable. But that’s not all. Apart from the Koreans, we also included the MarutiSuzuki Baleno and Jeep Compass in the mix.
Our latest issue also tests and compares the latest cars and motorcycles in the market. We kick-off with a comparison shoot-out between two luxury SUVs – the Volvo XC60 and the recently unveiled third-gen BMW X3. However, if luxury is what you desire, there’s nothing that can beat the # Mercedes S-Class. The recently updated luxo-barge, as we discovered during our first drive, has upped the game to a whole new level. On the two-wheel side of things, we had our hands full last month. The Aprilia # Dorsoduro 900’s power and practicality totally blew us away, while the Kawasaki Versys X300’s versatility on the rough terrain was a pleasant surprise. On the other side of the spectrum, the Yamaha R15V3 yet again proved that fun with a motorcycle is not contingent on crazy horsepower. And the new TVS ApacheRTR160 4V showed substantial improvements over its predecessor.
