Nepal Drives - Volume 2 - Issue 1

I dette nummeret

We were on the banks of the river Narayani, wrapping up the day’s shoot for the Tata H5. Across the river, on the opposing bank, echoed the distant jingle-jangle of bells accompanying the sermons and prayers. The setting sun had cast an orange blanket over the skies and darkness quickly enveloped everything around us; bringing with it the cold nip of the winter air. The time we spent with the H5 was incredible, and our trip to Narayanghat got the ball rolling for us on our endeavor to travel Nepal in the year 2020.
Lucky for us, we got to travel to the beautiful city of Narayanghat on what could be the most important SUV for Tata Motors yet. You can read our review of the H5 in the pages to come. We also drive what Suzuki says is the gateway car to SUVs. They call it the S-Presso and we see if we can get a jolt of excitement out of it as we drive through the tiny alleyways of Patan all the way to the hills of Chobhar.
On the opposite side of the size spectrum from the S-Presso is the new Toyota Hilux 2.4L Edition that we have test-driven in this issue. We took it out to god-knows-where and did devil-knows-what with it. Wait, that didn’t come out right. What we mean is that we tortured it to no end and did things that other vehicles rarely could. Wait…
Moving on. On the two wheelers front we have the Harley Davidson Street Rod 750. The Street Rod is the second most affordable Harley-Davidson motorcycle in Nepal after the Street 750, and we see if it is bang for the buck.
Good enough for ya? We hope you enjoy reading through this issue of Nepal Drives.
Until next time!
