Do or Die

I liked the budget of the car, looks, mileage and servicing and maintenance, also the interior and speed of the car, when I went for bye they were taking care of me and carefully they delivered my car.

Peronal drive

Exterior Classy looks great edges with panormic sunroof. Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Front seats comfortable  as accepted good for perosnal use but its not a family car if a person wants to use it for its personal use like going for office alone then it is a superb car.many more features like bluetooth compatibility seat adjustment on door which makes it very much easier to adjust the seats. Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Great performance, 0-100 in 7 seconds top speed 210 km/hr driver by myself. Ride Quality & Handling Amazing rides qulaity is amazing each part of the car is of good quality amazing leather seats one touch back curtain. Final Words Classy benz with killer looks and performance . Specially white colour suits the car most because of its black panaromic sunroof also gives warning to check tyre pressure. Areas of improvement Back row is not comfortable not even 3 people can sir comfortablly need to work on mileage.Exterior,lights,performance,Back row not comfortable

Wonderful experience

A great driving experience I had with the Jeep Compass. Either off-road or smooth road, you will feel great comfort next to luxury. Smooth drive even on rough stretches. Loaded with a variety of features.

2023 Tata Harrier Facelift First Drive Review

By Jay Shah14 Oct 2023

We have finally driven the new Tata Harrier to tell you about our driving impressions.

Refreshed

Mercedes has given the C-class a mid-life facelift. AUTO BILD INDIA takes it for a spin…

The C of change

We tested the Mercedes-Benz C200 CGI earlier last month and were quite impressed with the torquey engine and the overall fuel efficiency. Mercedes-Benz currently sells the C200 CGI in Avantgarde trim only and the variant that we tested was an Elegance trim. So, Mercedes-Benz sent us the C200 CGI in the Avantgarde trim for a photo shoot. Testing the car for performance and fuel efficiency run wasn’t required as there was no change in the engine.
