@MercedesBenzInd Expect 3 new Battery Electric Vehicles from MB in the 2nd half of 2024. One of which as the slide indicates will be the EQS SUV. In addition further expansion plans afoot. New centres and upgrades to existing centres expected across the country. @MercedesBenzInd

@MercedesBenzInd Several new products expected soon from MB India. Two of the nicer ones will be the S63 E Performance and the C63 E Performance F1 Edition. @MercedesBenzInd

So eventually I end up to pay INR 1400 for a INR 400 journey. I wonder how often this happens to how many people across the country. Increasingly being advised not to use Ola Cabs. Frequency of these issues is increasing. What's the hack. @ola_chandigarh

Now there is no way to dispute this charge, neither is there a number to talk to someone and explain what exactly happened to get corrective measures. The chat helpline, has fixed responses, which frustratingly takes you back to same response that nothing can be done.

Got ripped off by Ola Cabs today in Chandigarh. Booked a cab from the airport, fare mentioned INR 400. Cab driver charged me INR 500 claiming state tax for Haryana and Punjab that Ola Cabs does not include in fare. Final fare that came to me from Ola charged me INR 900

Not fresh news but saying it again, Volkswagen will also bring the iD.4, their large electric car to India later this year.

Key variant coming in, in the Taigun range is the GT Line. Significant enhancements, all cosmetic, adding more variety to suit individual needs. Performance and style at the core of all models now.

Enhancements to the existing portfolio include a new Taigun GT Plus Sport and Chrome editions, and a Virtus GT Plus Sport Edition. The Virtus GT Plus Sport is a concept, and will be introduced in the 2nd half of 2024.

Volkswagen India has increased their new car business by 8%, and used car business by 13%. In 2024-25 the intent is to expand their footprint, bring in new products, and enhance value for customers.

This is very heartening to see. It will help further showcase the beauty of Jammu and Kashmir. India offers great opportunities for motorsports to thrive and Srinagar is right on top of the places where it can happen!

Hyundai Creta N Line prices start at INR 16.82 lakh for 6-speed MT, goes up to INR 19.34 lakh for top spec ADAS Level 2 equipped Creta N Line. The 6-speed DCT sans ADAS is for INR 18.32 lakh, top end N10 for INR 20.29 lakh. That's an avg hike of around 30k over the std Creta.

At the launch of the Creta N Line. Hyundai India has been quick to bring the sportier looking variant of the hot-selling Creta, that was launched just a couple of months ago, to market. Mechanically still the same as the base SUV. #liveunleashed #hyundaicretanline

Since services began in 2015, I haven't seen a single Vistara flight on time. I fly extensively, avg of 3-4 flights a month, at least 1 or 2 are Vistara. Today is mindboggling. An 8:40 Delhi dep pushed to 9:30, then to 11:00, now rescheduled to 10:10. WTF is going on @airvistara?

Always say that most idiots only know how to step on the gas, the more important task of braking is completely ignored.

Nonetheless, the e6 is its largest selling EV, especially since it's only been fleet sales so far. The Atto 3 while a very interesting and capable EV SUV, also hasn't met much success. Also this has competitors, one priced similarly, another at a premium, So which would you buy?

The BYD Seal offers an impressive 650km range from its 82.5kWh Blade battery. Level 2 ADAS, VTOL capability, max 150kW charging capacity, and a very stylish cabin with some fancy gadgetry inside.

BYD has brought the Seal to India, a pure EV sedan with both RWD and AWD configurations. Priced at INR 41 lakh , 44.5 lakh and 53 lakh. I expect limited numbers since the company has a small footprint across India, so after sales and service is still an issue.

BREAKING: Tata Motors Limited will demerge into two separate listed companies housing A) the Commercial Vehicles business and its related investments in one entity and B) the Passenger Vehicles businesses including PV, EV, JLR and its related investments in another entity.
