    Renault Duster road-test review (updated)

    The Renault Duster has been making waves ever since it was launched, and it was the car that gave Renault solid presence in the Indian market. No wonder then that it was our Car of the Year 2013.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Ford Ecosport

    If the Renault Duster kicked off the craze for compact SUVs in India, the Ford EcoSport cemented it and made it one of the fastest growing segments. Ford EcoSport have been flying off the shelves ever since it was introduced, so much so that the demand for the compact SUV still far outstrips the supply. 

     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Tata Safari Storme
     
    This one was a long time coming. After 14 long years, Tata finally brought in a replacement for the ageing Safari. And it was a good effort too, as the Storme is a huge step up from the old Safari. 
     

     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Honda Amaze
     
    Honda had a lot riding on the new Amaze. It not only marked the debut of the first compact saloon for Honda, but also the first in India to come equipped with a diesel engine. Find out what we think about it in our review.
     

     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    2013 Skoda Octavia

    2013 Mahindra XUV500 (updated)
     
    Mahindra has stuck to the same design (with good reason), but there are a number of changes carried out to make this, the new XUV500, a much-improved package, including a new W4 base variant to reach out to a wider audience. Read on for our definitive verdict. 
     

     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Maruti Alto 800
     
    Reams have been written about Maruti’s super-successful Alto, and in its newest avatar, it picks up where its predecessor left off – right at the top of the sales chart. There’s no doubting that Maruti did a good job with the new Alto 800.

     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    New Honda CRV
     
    The new Honda CR-V isn’t just a minor facelift, it’s an all-new car that still manages to incorporate the core ingredients that Indians loved in the previous model. Find out how much better it is here.

     

     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Chevrolet Sail UVA
     
    The Chevrolet Sail U-VA is GM’s foray into the premium hatchback segment in India. But can it appeal enough to make buyers turn their backs on offerings from the likes of Maruti, Hyundai and Volkswagen?
     

    Hyundai Grand i10
     
    The new Hyundai Grand i10 has a lot to offer. It slots in neatly between the i20 and i10 and marks Hyundai’s fifth hatchback offering in India. It even gets Hyundai’s first, locally produced, small three-cylinder diesel engine which opens the doors to a relatively untapped small diesel hatchback segment in India
