evo India - March 2025

Bu sayıda

Two Porsches. 2500km. Five days on the road. We were putting the Porsche 911 Carrera to the ultimate test — to see if it could take on the dust, the heat, the traffic and the roads of India. We were driving from Delhi to Pune, but we weren’t taking the shortest route home. Instead, we charted out a longer drive, taking us through the deserts of Rajasthan, through the hinterlands of Gujarat and then finally in to Maharashtra. Joining the 911 on the drive is the Porsche Macan Turbo. This family SUV has now gone electric, but that has done anything but neuter it — it is more powerful, more capable and more luxurious than ever before. It joins the 911 on this epic journey, as it attempts to take on the vastness of this country, now as an EV. There’s plenty more in this issue — the Ed drives the Ferrari 12Cilindri Spider to Portugal for a proper V12 experience, while back home, we get behind the wheel of the BMW M2, Mercedes-Benz E 450 and the BYD Sealion 7. The electric G-Wagen gets shown the mirror, while facing the G 63. Lamborghini’s Gallardo turns 21, making it the perfect excuse to revisit the V10 that reshaped the brand’s legacy. And for those looking at used bargains, we look back at the Ford EcoSport to see if it’s still worth it in 2025. Plus, all the action from Generation Speed. We’ve also ridden a fair few bikes this month ranging from the KTM 390 Adventure to the Aprilia Tuono 457. We attend training programmes like the California Superbike School, and the Honda True Adventure camp, to master our skills. All this and much more in the March ’25 issue!
