TURBOCHARGED November 2024 Issue:
This Diwali, we’ve got a superstar on our cover! The E-Class is THE most iconic Mercedes-Benz in India, and in its latest avatar, the luxury sedan has gotten bigger, more spacious, more luxurious and more tech-laden, promising to set new benchmarks. Also jostling for space on the cover is the new Kia Carnival which has a similar story to itself. We’re also bringing you our review of the BYD eMax 7, which again, just like the Kia and Mercedes, promises exalted levels of comfort as a full-sized, premium electric MPV. These are besides reviews of the updated Nissan Magnite, Mercedes-Benz C 300, Tata Nexon iCNG and Citroen Basalt MT. We’ve also been to four different tracks this month!
We tested JK Tyre’s new Levitas tyres for premium/luxury cars at NATRAX and Reise Moto’s new performance motorcycle tyres at the CoASTT, rode the Aprilia RS 457 at the Kari Motor Speedway for the Aprilia Racers Day and went flat-out at the Buddh International Circuit on a Ducati Monster to test KYT’s new race helmet, the KX-1 Race GP! Action has been aplenty on the tech front too, as we’ve reviewed a bunch of new laptops, gaming devices, headphones and more. In short, we’ve put together a cracker of an issue for you this Diwali! Check it out!
