Cars Reboot

Fortuner,the name reminds you only the picture of the car but behind that there are great sales,following for that design,style,exteriors,features and all.Today we are going to discuss about them,Why wait?let's jump into it then. 1.Reliability : Toyota is the brand that has assured of this term 'reliability' in their vehicles and the history proves it.If you buy a toyota vehicle then it will last longer than other branded vehicles and also performs well in the run.It's no exception with the fortuner and the previous one proved it while the facelifted version making a statement of being the boss in the segment itself.I don't say the other brands doesn't last long but toyota is better in that case is what i want to convey. 2.Engine : Unlike the Ford Endeavour,Mahindra Alturas they have engines that are definitely punchy enough but not like the standard while alturas is having only one engine while endeavour has two engines they're the 2.2 and 3.2 w...

Why i mentioned the word 'massive' here is because it's true.Mahindra Alturas is massive in terms of proportions,styling,feature,engine,interiors,exteriors and everything. Starting with the looks and design!It's the Ssangyong Rexton which is re-badged,re-styled vehicle of-course as the vehicle do look intimidating,strong and bulky vehicle. Being the Ssangyong Rexton worldwide but alturas in india and there's a reason for that.Ssangyong was not in great sales with that badging with their previous vehicle and thus mahindra took it up and re-styled the vehicle according to indian customers liking.That seems working and the design of the grille,badging and all look good but the name feels highly classic i would say but that's just my opinion.Mahindra Alturas is powered by a 2.2 lit Ssangyong built engine that produces 178 bhp and 420 Nm of torque and this mated to a mercedes benz sourced 7-speed automatic gearbox also with that new imposing grille ...

Tata Harrier! Now,whenever people hear this name they remind of the discovery.Because it's built on the prestigious landrover platform and that results in more space,offroading capability,higher ground clearance etc., Here are some things which could have made harrier a better suv : 1.Tata could have offered all disc-brakes instead of disc at front and drum at rear ans they could have offered 18 inches as these 17 inches are small for a suv that big and it actually adds to the character of the vehicle. 2.The Interior features such as wireless charging,powered river seat,sunroof,reclining rear seats,ventilated seats,more visible rear camera because it is not that great in daylight conditions and these all could have improved it a bit in the features list and can make it quite competitive in it's segment. 3.The Exterior changes include newly designed alloys like they did with the buzzard sport at geneva international motorshow and automated tailgate. 4.An ...

These are the best selling and also most popular cars in the c-segment sedans and also competitive in features list.Let's go with one by one. 1.Maruti suzuki ciaz : The Latest offering with updated design,new engine,fresh interiors and lot more to talk of. Ciaz is one of the top selling sedan in this segment.There are two envines on offer i.e, a 1.3 lit same diesel engine and a new k15 petrol engine developed in india by maruti suzuki.Here the diesel engine produces the same 89 bhp of power and 200 Nm of torque,the petrol produces a healthy 103 bhp and 138 Nm of torque and these engines are combined with SHVS that ensures better mileage.But,the petrol gets all the goodies than the diesel gets and that's because the petrol engine being a new one is also having the Brake re-gen which is essentially works on the torque assisting to provide a better fuel efficiency and this with the faux wood finish on the dash and also the MID display will show you whenever the SHVS kicks...

Whenever Maruti Suzuki launches a car it's going to grab a lot of attention and that's natural because they have  50% of market in the hatchbacks,small hatches and compact suv segment which is like no other brand in india.This Ertiga is an update for the previous one and it does look cool,compliant,no nonsense family car with a new petrol engine and more features packed in. The New Ertiga is built on the Heart-tech platform and now it is longer by 130 mm,wider by 40 mm and taller by 5 mm which is going to create more space inside the cabin.The Engine is the new 1.5 lit petrol engine that produces 103 bhp with 138 Nm of torque and the diesel engine is the same 1.3lit one that produces 89 bhp and 200 Nm of torque.Here one may wonder why maruti has offered a petrol engine in ertiga with Brake Re-gen,SHVS  and all,but this is going to be a different mpv that has adequate power on tap  for the petrol car lovers in mpv segment.The Prices for this car will start from...

Mahindra Marazzo is the safest vehicle with a safety rating of 4 given by the ENCAP and not only that there's lot more we need to look into. Marazzo being a new vehicle built on a ladder frame with FWD is patented by mahindra with the new marazzo.It's developed by pinninfarina designers in USA and the inspiration they took from a shark is very surprising because xuv500 from cheetah and now a marazzo with a shark.Powered by a 1.5 lit engine newly developed by mahindra that churns out 121 Ps and 350 Nm of torque are quite impressive figures for and mpv and also now the suspension is on the softer side means no bouncy rides,only comfortable ones. With projector headlamps,DRL's combined with the fog lamps do look cool and merged with the design itself.The Interiors are lite and also feels spacious when we get in and the roof mounted ac vents,oh! It's such a cool feature and we feel like we are sitting in a room with central ac and the scen...

In India Toyota Fortuner and Ford Endeavour are the biggest rivals in the segment of bigger suv market and there are other vehicles at this price point with their own upsides and downsides but doesn't bring the same feture list as these two does and  here i am going to discuss only about these two cars and there is some confusion on which one to buy in this current iteration.Because,Ford has updated it's Endeavour with some changes and dressed it up and well! it looks more mature now with those updates inside and outside. Fortuner on the other side is having great sales without any involvement in these discussions but what i feel is that it might not be the same in future also.It needs some updates and once they are corrected then it will continue the sales in decent numbers.Coming to the point !these are the two massive vehicles that have their own customers and fans for the way they look and drive. Toyota  Fortuner being the biggest selling suv in this market t...

This is the sort of SUV that has the stance, road presence and with that wild and butch looks, it can intimidate you if you stand in front of it. Yes! I am talking about the new Ford Endeavour facelift which was released in the recent times. Talking about updates there are little misses when they released it back in the time such as Push start button, Infotainment system, etc., We will now discuss what they have offered in the new one.                               There are some reasonable amount of updates that are done in this new one. They added the push start button, new design for the alloys, hands-free tailgate, puddle lamps, and the vehicle is now 11 mm longer and 9 mm wider than before and this added with that new sync3 system for the infotainment system and also they added a new colour scheme called 'Diffused Silver' and this is the fully grown SUV that has the power to take on any kind of t...

Tata Buzzard is the Harrier's longer version which is made on the same omega arc platform and also the reason why it is named Buzzard is that Toyota has that name registered for something and they allowed it only in India. Buzzard is a family SUV which now offering 7 seats with the extended body at the back and also tata motors are going to use the same 2-lit fiat sourced engine with higher tuning for up to 170Ps of power and the features list will be mostly same as the harrier but there might be some added features expected like the automatic tailgate and all. Buzzard Sport, the tata harrier and buzzard the family SUV are going to be released in foreign countries and there they have updated the tyres alloys of harrier and if they did it in India also it would be very nice because they have come up with the conventional-looking alloys in India. The Buzzard looks mostly the same except the rear because they haven't changed anything more in the front and interiors like ...

Yes! It is a better purchase for those who need a sporty,feature-rich and safer and a lot more. This time Nissan has changed or we can say up the game to a better stage and kicks is the proof. Nissan Kicks being made on the same platform where it's other cars like the Duster, Captur was built on but it has not carried any interiors or exterior elements from those and that aspect solely made it stand out from the crowd of the other rivals in its segment. kicks is a sporty looking car with a great feature list like the segment-first 360-degree cameras and also we can access them when we are driving the vehicle. The Interiors are good to look at and even the 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system that offers apple car play and android auto. With the bigger 17-inch wheels, it looks quite sporty and style and then the company said that they have worked on the NVH levels and they believe they are going to give some good competition to the rivals in this segment. With a 400-lit bo...

This question rose in recent times and why is that because Tata Harrier is a bigger vehicle with lots of features and in price just above the Creta and being on the other side just completed the 5lakh sales mark and still counting. Tata Harrier is a 4.6m long SUV built on a discovery platform and carrying some similar styling and features made customers wonder on how come tata is making cars like these in this new generation. Tata Harrier: Being a vehicle made from a JLR's Omega platform or if you want it to be short, then the discovery platform this car has actually become a showstopper when we saw it in the auto expo and they have made most of it into the production version which is now attracting a lot of customers towards it. Tata is actually going in an approach where they can get sales increased in a steady manner. Why I said this is because the distribution of features for the variants in it is done very attentively because now whatever the variant you bu...

SUV! The market for this name is growing vast and also rapid in terms of sales in India. Today the topic is about Brezza and XUV300 among which one has recently crossed the 4lakh sales mark and also hot-selling even now. The Other has just launched and started gaining craze slowly but very steadily. Let's just get into a point by discussing things about these two and among which is more valuable purchase among these two and also find why the other is not up to that mark. 1.Brezza: I don't have to say a word about it, because the sales of it had already said that if one has to become a segment benchmark then Maruti Suzuki is having that potential. But in the current generation, it has got competition now. Brezza is a cool looking SUV with its boxy proportions and also the styling is done just in the right manner to catch customers. The Blacked out alloys, body shop, roof rails, sporty interiors, nice infotainment system, nice boot and all made it an SUV that has pr...

Being one of the best selling hatchbacks in India, Baleno is a great option for small families and the younger generation. The Looks, style, and other elements add to the sales and also desirability for it. Apart from all these, there is a problem not one but many and I will list them out and this is not to show that it's a bad car but it needs improvements in it. 1. Tall people cannot see the road sitting in the driver seat because our head touches the roof and the seat cannot be bent down much. 2. The Vehicle is not that safer when compared to its rivals like the I20 elite, Figo and definitely not with polo which is the safest car in the segment itself. 3. The Price and the features it provides are less and now the new one doesn't get more updates much but just some tweaks with a hike in it's the price. If I keep on saying things like this you may feel like I am against Maruti Suzuki which is false. I just point out that there are some problems which...
