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!!.

Stylish youthful luxury suv

This my honest review. I like the exterior and interiors. Features are the best in class. Suspension is the worst... you won't feel like sitting in a luxury car. Rear seats lacks under thigh support and back is also very up. There is lag in the engine. when you over take you have to come to manual mode gear shift. Very poor mileage, i was getting around 8kms.

2018 Volvo XC40 First Drive Review

By Sagar Bhanushali26 May 2018

The 2018 Volvo XC40 has finally arrived. So what? It’s basically a scaled down XC60, right? In a smaller, more urban friendly package? Wrong. All set to contend in the entry-level luxury SUV segment, the XC40 represents a whole new ballgame for Volvo India, in a segment that has become a reflection of the changing taste and ambition of young buyers who are not hesitant to splurge on compact luxury cars.
