    The TSI was the flagship of the Vento range, as well as our favourite variant — it had the best engine and gearbox combination, and was only available in top spec. I use the past tense, because the Vento has just been given a facelift, and the darling of the range will now undoubtedly be the new 1.5-litre diesel, also available with this seven-speed DSG automatic gearbox. The 1.2 TSI is still available, of course; in fact, you can even have it in the more affordable Comfortline trim now. It’s also time to say bye to our Vento, and while we’re excited to try out the new TDI automatic, we’d happily have another TSI as a long-termer, Volkswagen.

    At Rs 1.85 lakh, the Bajaj Pulsar NS400Z is the most affordable 40hp bike in India. Would you pick it over similarly priced bikes with less power and features?

    Yes, 40hp at this price is unheard of!

    No, it's a decade-old bike in a revamped suit.

    Great value but doesn't look unique enough.
