Mercedes-Benz

A sleek and comforting ride with a multitude of features. The car itself is humongous and feels light to drive, and is highly recommended by me. this car is a must to try.

This is the ICONIC Crease Breaker

The rear executive seat experience and the cabin ambience, material selection feels Modernly Rejuvenating. Interestingly Sunroof (Non Openable) blinds fold in forward direction, designed for more headroom at the back. Coming to the center console, it is definitely beautifully designed and looks Futuristically Elegant. The Crystal - Glass finish on the dashboard discreetly houses the Ambient lighting which is fascinatingly intuitive. In Sport Mode the ambient lighting lights up in the M Colors. The glass elements continues on the door trim and this theme is also implemented on the seat controls, gear selector & the iDrive controller. Its Interesting to note that it’s also a flat-bottomed wheel, something that BMW has typically stayed away from in the past. Overall love the implementation of design & skeletonized metal spokes. The All New 7 Series seems to have redefined this Highly Exclusive Luxury Mobility Segment like never before & makes the time on-board (Rear Seat + Driver's Seat) a truly rewarding experience.

Combination of power and luxury

Range Rover 3.0 Diesel has a 3.0-liter, six-cylinder turbo engine. provide excellent performance and 0-100 in around 8 sec. It has a luxurious appearance with a smooth surface. It features large alloy wheels and multiple LED lights.
