    For our 20th Anniversary issue, we’ve strung together a line-up of stories that’ll have you hooked. First up is an India exclusive drive of the MG ZS EV, and an exclusive spin in Citroen’s first model for India – the C5 Aircross. To go with those, we have two more exclusive India drives of the all-new Porsche 911 and Aston Martin Vantage. Plus, there is the massive comparison test of midsize SUVs, where the Kia Seltos takes on the MG Hector and other rivals. Also big in this issue are a world exclusive first look at the Maruti Suzuki S-Presso, which will soon rival the Renault Kwid, and the full report from the Autocar Track Day 2019. Then there are some specials, including a drive in two generations of Formula E race cars, a drive in the humongous Caterpillar 777E dump truck, and a feature where all seven generations of the BMW 3 Series come together for the very first time in India. There are even 60 whole pages of two-wheeler action, including some tasty comparison tests, juicy news from the industry, and features you’ll enjoy reading. Here are the highlights:
