Photographs by Om KhedekarThe Audi RS Q8 is a fascinating addition to Audi’s lineup, standing out as one of the few models that truly embodies the spirit of the RS badge. It’s a car that combines raw power, cutting-edge technology, and practicality in a way that few performance SUVs can match on paper, anyway.

Photographs by Shreyansh ChatterjeeThe Kodiaq is back, but Skoda’s relaunch of the new-generation car wasn’t a standard press event but a detour from the usual automotive unveilings. Rather than ushering journalists through the traditional drill of airport pickups, hotel check-ins, and conference-room briefings, Skoda staged an overnight experience that concluded with the unveiling of their refreshed SUV aboard a yacht, gently rocking in the glow of Mumbai’s moonlit harbour.

Photographs by Ishaan JaiswalThe Kia EV6 didn’t really need fixing, and that’s precisely why this 2025 facelift works so well. Standing under the harsh summer sun at Kia’s Andhra Pradesh factory – a two-hour drive from Bengaluru through increasingly sparse terrain – the subtle evolution of its flagship electric crossover becomes clear. This isn’t an evolution, but a careful refinement of what was already one of the most compelling electric vehicles on the market.

Photographs by Ishaan JaiswalLet’s be honest — when you first hear that a Kia costs more than a crore, your brain does a double-take. A Kia? For that much money? But then you see it. You sit in it. You drive it. And suddenly, the number starts making a scary amount of sense. The EV9 is a great lesson in how to take every premium ingredient in the automotive world, and bake them into something that feels genuinely special. The moment you walk up to the EV9, it hits you — this thing has a presence.

Photographs by Neel Kirloskar/Shreyansh ChatterjeeI was in college when I first watched a YouTube video of Arnold Schwarzenegger taking his G-Wagen to a company in Austria, to have it converted it into an electric vehicle — a move that turned heads nearly a decade ago. Since then, battery technology and electric motors have evolved significantly, making the prospect of a factory-production G-Wagen all the more exciting.

Photographs by Anurag HoleThere’s always a sense of excitement when you get a call saying a flatbed truck is arriving to drop off a car. This usually means that something truly special is on the way, and if I’m honest, this was more than just special — it was a first-of-its-kind experience. My only previous experience with a Lotus was driving its all-electric SUV, the Eletre. It was completely different this time — a sleek, bright yellow, petrol-powered Lotus Emira, ready to be unleashed.

Photographs by Siddharth DadheHistorically, the BMW 5 Series has been the definitive choice in the premium sedan segment if you were after the ultimate driving machine. With it, BMW didn’t compromise on space but ensured the one behind the wheel would always sport a wide grin. The German carmaker got the balance between performance and comfort just right, securing itself a place in the enthusiast’s garage. With the latest-generation 5 Series, BMW’s list of promises has got longer.

Photographs by Siddharth DadheWhen it comes to Aston Martin, it’s nearly impossible to avoid the James Bond clichés that have become synonymous with the brand. The moment you see one or, better yet, find yourself behind the wheel, your mind inevitably drifts to 007, Q Branch, and all the associated cinematic glamour. There’s so much more to Aston Martin than its starring role in the Bond franchise, though.

More from Motoring When I first got my hands on the Mercedes-Benz C 300, it was a bittersweet moment. The Mercedes-Benz driver had just picked up the all-electric EQS 580, a star in our Motoring World fleet. The EQS, being electric and frugal, had been a workhorse for long-distance trips and shoots. Now, with the C 300 — a powerful petrol sedan — I was excited to experience a different kind of thrill over the next few weeks. The first thing that struck me about the C 300 was its design.
