Audi Q5 Review: Pros and Cons

By Bilal Ahmed Firfiray29 Nov 2021

Now that the prices are out, it’s a perfect time to revisit and take a look at five things we loved about the Q5 facelift and two things that could have made it even more enticing.

Mercedes-Benz ML 63 AMG

By Charles Pennefather30 Jun 2014

A fast car isn’t usually fast in Indian conditions. Supercars that have to crawl over speed breakers gingerly, aren’t the best companions in traffic and cannot be taken for holidays out on the highway simply because of the attention they garner. An option, then, is the super-SUV, which has the pace of a supercar but can deal easily with India’s potholes, speed breakers and have enough boot space and tank range to take out on a holiday. The ML63 AMG is one of this class, and it seems to be the vehicle one should choose if one wants to fly under the radar and get his performance high. Does it live up to the expectations that naturally occur when you have ‘AMG’ on it, though?
