The all-new 2018 Mahindra Marazzo MPV has been launched in India today at a starting price of Rs. 9.9 lakh (ex-showroom, India). Currently, the MPV is available in four variants M2, M4, M6, and M8, and the top-of-the-line variant is priced at Rs. 13.90 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). The Marazzo is an all-new product from the home-grown automaker, and presently the company's flagship model in the country. In India, the new Mahindra Marazzo will take on the likes of the segment leader Toyota Innova Crysta and the Tata Hexa. The Mahindra Marazzo mileage is about 17.6 kmpl. Mahindra has invested $200 million towards the design and development of the Marazzo MPV. The new Mahindra Marazzo is powered by a new 1.5-litre four-cylinder diesel engine that has been tuned to offer a maximum of 120 bhp and develops a peak torque of 300 Nm. The engine only comes mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox, and right now, there is no automatic transmission on offer. Mahindra is also working on t...

The Mahindra Marazzo is set to launch in India on September 3.  Dealers have already started accepting bookings for the new MPV. In a bid to create some buzz over the product, Mahindra has been releasing teaser images at regular intervals showing various design elements of the vehicle. But a few images have now appeared which show it completely undisguised. The front of the car is dominated by the large double-barrel headlamps, the blacked-out effect of these are a nice touch. The front grille gets, as the company calls it, a shark-inspired grille. Another noticeable touch is the prominent lip below the front bumper. The side profile of the car gets subtle character lines and a large glass area. The alloy wheel design on these top-spec cars look attractive and the tyres fill up the whell wells nicely. Overall, the design seems quite subdued in comparison to other Mahindra cars like the XUV 500 and the KUV 100. In interior shots released by Mahindra earlier, ...

All new Bugatti Divo 2019. After being teased for well over a few weeks now, Bugatti has finally taken the wraps off its latest car - the Bugatti Divo! The new Divo will be limited to just 40 units globally and will cost a whopping €5 Million or upwards of Rs 40 Crore each! Only those owners who currently own a Chiron are eligible to get their hands on the Divo and as expected, even at €5 Million, all 40 units have already been sold out even before launch. But forget the price tag and just look at that glorious body! While the Chiron is a work of art in itself, Bugatti, in my personal opinion, has truly outdone itself with the sheer attention to detail and design of the new Divo.  It looks purposeful, aggressive and has enough cues from the Bugatti Vision Gran Tourismo - but all in a street legal, road going, 236 mph or 380 kmph package! So why is it considerably slower than the Chiron, Chiron Sport and even the Veyron? Well, that is because this is the first moder...
