In this issue, we bring you a list of 50-plus new cars that are arriving in India in the next 12 months, so you’ll want to read this before deciding on your next car purchase. We also drive the new MG Astor SUV, the facelifted Porsche Macan GTS and review TVS’s new 125cc commuter bike – the Raider 125.
