BMW X1 - Great in all departments except performance

Performance - Creta /Seltos/XUV700 /Scorpio N have better performance than BMW X1. BMW killed the X1 by bringing engines to this. BMW! rethink your strategy. This is not expected from the BMW badge. Taigun/Kushaq 1.5 beat this X1 left and right!!.

O(A)MG A35

I bought the car from Autohangar Mumbai. The showroom staff was very helpful. I love everything about the Mercedes a35 AMG besides the rear seat space on offer. I havent gone for a proper service yet, however, I took the car for a checkup once and I liked the after sales service.

Mercedes-Benz A35 AMG First Drive Review

By Sagar Bhanushali12 Apr 2021

The Mercedes A35 AMG is a very convincing everyday performance car and it's difficult to argue with that statement. It’s fast, a lot of fun and for a family of four, it’s fairly comfortable.
