The third-generation M-Class can look the world public with more confidence. Among the new elements brought by the new generation of the large German SUV is a basic four-cylinder diesel 2,2-liter version, which the Germans have bet that sales will be shared with the 6-cylinder sisters in Europe. Today 250ara M-Class is the only logical choice for someone who wants bold and can move from a SUV model with such a quadricycle. Borrows from several sisters elegance series (CL & E-Class) the wide range of Mercedes, the resulting design shows a balanced natural evolution of species in the eye acclaimed second generation. It is beyond doubt that the new model looks the same reasoning, the hip style of European and oversized requirements of the Americans. The new M-Class has increased dimensions than its predecessor with a length of 4804 mm, 1926 mm wide, 2915 mm wheelbase and only the height of 1796 mm has fallen. In signs of improvement and is aerodynamic.

The interior design goes far beyond the previous generation and keeps pace with the latest happenings in the range of Mercedes. No longer holds any doubt about the quality of construction, the so-called "nobility" to off-along with the value-loaded with equipment as the car. The exploitation of space follows the methodical Germans, offering an extremely rich cabin. The most powerful version of the 2.2-liter four-cylinder engine was chosen for the entry-level version of the new M-Class. The performance reaches 204 hp and 500 Nm of torque. The numbers indicate the performance of the 4-cylinder 250 CDI, 9,0'' for the 0-100 km / h and 210 km / h top speed. Valuable partner in enhanced 7-speed automatic transmission (7G Tronic Plus), which handled the proven solution of paddles on the steering column or the paddles on the steering wheel.

Besides the upgraded features in its operation, is planning to reduce fuel consumption, the transmission works accurately and with a Start & Stop. The ecological behavior of reinforced concrete version of the package technology BlueTec. Specifications reported average consumption of 6.0-6.5 Lt/100km. In practice moving with nimble tempo you need to round 9,0 10,0 Lt/100km, the price drops significantly and 8,0 Lt/100km if you decide to drive with some restraint. Moreover if one chooses from the list of optional equipment, the big tank of 93 Lt (STD is the 70 Lt), significantly enhances autonomy. Looking at the size of the car certainly raises questions about the capabilities of a 4-cylinder M-Class. In practice the small engine is not completely hiding the color of diesel inside, despite the excellent sound insulation. The box takes to take the torque curve, with the best possible way. Moving may not impress, but in no way disappointed and merits of the move at ease with this great SUV. Using a strategy the torque of the engine did not stay extremists.

We are not looking for the explosive form of the AMG version, but the perfect balance and ease of use in everyday life, the little details that the M-Class offers the right way. Free from voluntary suspension Aromatic, the basic form of M-Class bonus for top comfort and ride quality. Well improved brakes and steering, which enhances the feeling of absolute comfort. Easy to drive and practical, not to impose an upload rate, where common suspension does not seem to have the depth of the advanced air suspension (Aromatic), coordinating the driver a more relaxed travel. Off road routes of the suspension, the torque at low revs and wheel drive set the stage for moving everything reasonably well in context..The price of Mercedes Benz 250 BlueTEC 4Matic will be around 86 247 US$

This is quite clearly a Hyundai is the latest car for the Indian market and is jumping right into exclusive sedan class. It is the new Hyundai Elantra. Hyundai’s previous cars didn’t have such a good run here in India but more recently with the Verna we have seen that Hyundai can give some really solid products that hit the sweet spot in Indian market. Can the Elantra hold on the Hyundai template now. Let's check it out.

Hyundai’s new Elantra has been making waves global and going just by the way it looks it is bound to be a winner in India as well. Coming to the design. Although, the flowing design somewhat looks like previous cars, the Elantra is distinguishable from other Hyundai’s. The headlamps are slimmer which stretch to the back and look sharper. Two sharp lines on the side and tight glass area make the Elantra looks sportier. The window line is sharper to the edge for a sporty look and it is neater than the other. The slim two backlight designs are very closer to the Sonata than the Verna. The high boot lip also has a sporty spoiler lip integrated into. The Elantra sports marks 16 inch alloys with 205 section rubber on it. That completes a striking and attractive package. The Elantra also features fog lamps and power mirrors with indicaotrs.

The Verna’s interiors were quite up to the mark when it came to materials and fit and finish. But now here the Elantra, things have gotten better several launches. The interior design of this 5^th generation Elantra is a far drive from the interiors of the 3^rd generation car that was on offer in India earlier. The multilayer dashboard throws down towards the center console. The design will make you smile, the narrow waist, the glossy black rim and chrome lining are really nice flourishes. The instrument cluster looks cool and it is easy to read too. There are lots of practical storage spaces around the cabin as well.

The dashboard has a digital clock on the top with the music system below. Apart from CDs it has connectivity for Bluetooth, USB and auxiliary post as well. The climate control air conditioning is found right at the bottom has independent temperature controls for the driver and the passenger. The Elantra sports keyless start, automatic headlights, cruise control, tilt and make adjusting to the steering wheel, a reverse camera and power folding mirrors with indicator lights. The top end Elantra features six way power adjustments for the driver seat well the passenger seat has to be adjusted manually. But both the seats are cool.

The rear passenger gets arm rest which also has controls for the music system. That’s really neat and as expected theirs air conditioning vents to keep the passenger they're really cool. The back seat is pretty good with nice soft cushions and feels supported. Leg space is also really good but head can be a bit tight if you are tall otherwise it has a great interior. The flat floor is the other advantage of the car which makes better a better comfort for the middle passenger. Finally talking about the safety, the Elantra features 6 air bags which is a good safety measurement.

Elantra comes with an option of two engines – the petrol model is a new 1.8 liter motor that can change valve timing on the intake and exhaust case. It can also change the length of the intake track for the engine. All this technology has to improve efficiency and economy while reducing intake. The 1.8 liter petrol engine has a power of 146bhp and 18kgm of torque. With an option you can choose the 6-speed manual or automatic gearbox. The second option engine is the diesel engine 1582cc CRDI Motor with 126bhp power and 26.5kgm of torque. When the power is channelised to the six speed manual gearbox , the Elantra was quite perfect. Elantra gives a mileage of 13 kmpl in a six speed manual gearbox which is really impressive. Now if you are driving in lower speed in the city it gives pretty good performance to beat the traffic but if you put your foot down suddenly dynamic expecting to move ahead, it's not going to do that. On fast smooth highways the six speed manual the Elantra cruise effortlessly. It hits triple digits with ease and crunches kilometers without any lag. Now when it comes to the automatic gearbox, the Elantra uses six speed automatic gear transformation for better performance on highways. The diesel automatic version is very clearly focused to the cites driving and stop go conditions but the wheel drove it pretty much out on the highway. In diesel manual mode, the shifts are smooth and quick responsive for a better drive ability. Overall seems to be a pretty nice gear. Still Elantra is a very exciting vehicle to drive very smooth and long highways.

The suspensions are very good in low speed drive and city drive it feels very comfortable but as a speed drive out in the highways you will find that body control is not that great. At low speed the steering feels very nice but at higher speed you will feel inconsistent. However the Elantra can boost of a really long 270cm wheel base. A couple of millimeters more would have made it a longest in its class. The 16 inch alloy wheels with p205/60R16 tires also promise a difference in the dynamic department. Even though it won't be exciting the combining micro electronic area of ESE, ABS and VSA are sure to make Elantra a safer sedan. Elantra promises everything we expect from Hyundai’s new generation of cars and in some areas it delivers a little bit small. The Elantra is a stylish looking vehicle with lots of features. It is a slight city focused car, low speed drive I very comfortable, high speed dynamics not the best but it is better than what we expected. Another area of improvement needed is in the interior fit finish and quality. Overall it is a vehicle which offers you a lot of value and its engine option also gives you a lot to think about it. You have got a option of petrol, diesel, automatic gearbox , manual gearbox all for a midrange variant makes it a really strong package offered from Hyundai. The Ex-howroom price of Hyndai Elantra is Rs.1300000/- in India.

Renault had really struggled in the Indian auto market . They had joined with M&M and the logan didn’t create a right image for them. And then the vehicles that they launched on their own like the Koleos , The Fluence, The pulse haven’t created too many ripples either. They need something big. Well this isn’t exactly big, it’s a compact SUV but will it be the game changer for Renault. Well the Duster has hit quite a sweet spot. There isn’t anything else like it around at its price point. If we are to make comparisons, there are other compact SUV’s like the Premier Rio, but that’s very small and it has a much lower price point or you have Skoda yeti which is a far more premium. Yes we can say that this is in the same price bracket as Mahindra Scorpio but then they are two different animals. This compact SUV looks a whole lot bigger than you would imagine. It looks every bit an SUV, with the flair wheel arches, scuff plates, huge clearance, and the metal roof rails. The squarish headlights and the chrome grill give the Renault Duster a premium look. The side is pretty straight forward with no nonsense doors and no styling flourishes. The body swells in a nice way out to the tail lights which are quite small but enhance by the best effect on the body. The chrome bar on the tail gate proudly carries the name in bold.

The Duster interior realizes you where the cost cuttings are. There are simple handles and no rubber beading on the door. The interiors are looking like Logan but it still doesn’t feel premium enough. The plastics are shiny and hard but the quality looks like its from lower level. The seats are flattened hard too but they do offer enough support. Now whether the cabin lacks in class it makes a bit practicality. Coming about the storage space. A dash top storage about the central console, 5 cup holders and pretty decent side pockets however they are only good for maps or books but not for the bottle. Luggage space is good for its size. The flat floor doesn’t have any intrusions and the floor isn’t too high which makes loading easy. You can increase the luggage are too by down the one piece backrest of the rear seat. However there are some chocks on this interior like the A/C controls are behind the gear lever so it is a little difficult to use. Another great difficulty is the mirror adjustment controls are under the hand brake so you have to pull the hand brake up to access it easily. The top end of Renault Duster will get leather seats, seat height adjust, Rear A/C vent, forward panels on the door and airbags. The rear A/C unit is an extra add-on for India and it looks just like it was an afterthought too. The Duster will be available in both petrol and diesel engines. The petrol will be a 1.6 liter engine with 102.5bhp and 14.8 kgm of torque. The diesel will be a 1.5 liter engine available in two states , a 108 bhp and 84 bhp with two different price points of course. However the performance doesn’t feel as Linea and Fluence, there is quite a bit of lag and you do a push part to 2000 RPM you will feel the kick of this engine. The Duster has 1308Kg weight means that real world performance is actually pretty good.

With the 6^th gear the Duster cruise very comfortable. And though the gearbox is light it is a bit notchy to use and the clutch feels heavy too. You can really through the duster around the corner and have fun with it, body comfortable and tire grip well and you really get a confidence that Duster is beyond your expectations. The space at the back is very good and legroom, the headroom is the really best part of this car. It handles a nice flat drive and the suspension work widely too which is a great bonus. Renault claims that the Duster diesel engine will give around 19km/l for the 110 bhp and 20km/l for the 84bhp version. Well it looks like an SUV, it got a good ground clearance and as you can feel you can do a fair bit of offroading as well. But still its so car like in manner, it's light and easy to drive when you are in the city or when you are in traffic conditions and the ride and handling is simply superb. It's got good performance, its got a decent size boot, and it is comfortable and spacious in the back seat. The pricing is well , we feel that the Renault wants it to make that big impact and this needed to be a little more aggressivly price. Still there is no taking away from the fact that they have hit a sweet spot and this is the very little capable SUV. The Ex-showroom price of Renaul Duster for the petrol engine is Rs.7.19Lakh and the diesel engine is Rs.7.99 Lakh. So for all of you out there who wanted that SUV and thought that is either too big and bulky to drive and thought they are too expensive, here something that fits perfectly and we give him a thumps up.

Here is the new Mahindra XUV 500 with lots of features and great styling Sports Utility Vehicle. Mahindra XUV 500 is a first time in Indian manufacturer is producing a global SUV . Yes! Iam talking about the M&M XUV 500. M&M took a very good effort to make a muscular SUV , applying new technology and styling is really sexy. The XUV has a very aggressive look about. Front has a typical M&M grill but that’s a small portion that sits the top of very large bumper they cuts flowing out like a cats whisker. The headlights have two balls like lamps underline like dots by the daytime running LED lights. The side profile is less worked to give it a premium look on it. Three almost equal glass areas , it makes it little more MUV than an SUV. But there are the really large bulging circular portions above the wheel arches, that are there to remind you that this is all muscle. Radial tubeless P235/65 R17 tires are used. The rear of the car has a smallish glass area and a small bumper with large tail lamp area. The highlight here is the tail light with the horizontally divides into four sections. The top of the tail lamp is slightly runs over to the side. You sometimes feel that there is too much styling in may be less could be more but when you see the overall picture it definitely makes you turn around and give it a second look.

There is a lot of funky stuff on the interior of the XUV 500 as well. In the interior it is very nice as well is the good solid feel with which these doors closed, nice chunk which feel solid and really very good. On the inside it's not quite as global as we expected. In the interiors are really a mix of very nice bits and some bits that disappointed. The interior is up of black and brown and there is so many bits of black and brown that it all felt a bit too much. Also the black area on the dash and the top of the doors with its soft touch texture look is much richer in appearance than the brown making a glaring contrast between the two. Central console follows a waterfall design with a wooden finish in the center hitch by two chrome plastic strips. These strips cause a reflection is quite disturbing to the driver. The plastic on the buttons on the center console again another brown plastic makes it little cheap. Overall its too many textures and finish interior.

There are many nice bits on the inside as well the speedometer is circle within circle surrounded by a nice chrome ring. There is a touch screen multimedia display which comes with the higher end and has a very nice quality Audio and A/C. For the high end you also get the satellite navigation and you can addon a video function. The music system has USB and Aux connectivity too. The A/C vents are the another very nicely designed feature allowing good air flow. There are storage just about everywhere on the inside and you will never lack for a place to keep stuff. The only place where the space is lacking is on the boot. With seven seats up there is no space but you always have the option of folding down the seats to accommodate luggage. At the other end under the hood is the mHawk engine which has been upped in power and now has a 140bhp with 33.33 kgm of torque. The mHawk engine is the engine that we always really like and it seems extremely nice in XUV 500. This is like because of its construction and off course the power has been up. It is a very refined engine. When you are cruising you don’t hear it at all. This engine is very comfortable in city traffic or on the highway. It’s a pretty enjoyable and you never lack of power. This engine is made up to a six feet gear box which requires are a little more effort to use them we would like. The second gear in particular feels notchy and it is a little too far back when you shift. Well that’s about performance. But those of you worried about the economy there is a stop /start feature that can be activated by a button on the center console. Coming to milage, M&M claim that this vehicle has an average of 15.1km/l.

This car maintains stable even at a high speed and when you wanted to do harder cornering , the steering gives you a lot of feedback, the body control is quite good and you never feel unsafe. The tire seems wouldn’t offer enough grip. The steering too is not entirely consistent around corners but that’s when you are cornering really hard. Now the XUV may not have the stunt of the Endeavour and the Fortuner but though it is compact in its exterior dimensions, the kind of space it offers on the inside is really incredible. So if you are looking SUV, that the Fortuner and the Endeavor are too big and bulky and may be out of reach and on the other side you don’t want an MUV, well the XUV 500 is just the answer. The Mahindra XUV 500 priced between Rs. 10.8 lakh and 11.95 lakh.
