The next Mercedes-Benz GLA is expected to arrive in India in May 2021

Mercedes has already unveiled the GLC, A-Class Limousine, and E-Class facelift for 2021. The 2021 GLA, which is expected to debut in the first week of May 2021, will most likely be the fourth model to join the refreshed lineup. The new GLA, which was introduced to international markets last year, has a more SUV-like appearance than the previous generation model. The 10cm rise in height provides more headroom within the cabin, allowing for a higher seating position. The GLA's visual appeal comes from the deep crease lines on the bonnet that flow down to the single slat grille flanked by the new LED headlamps. The GLA's SUV stance is further enhanced by the sleeker split LED tail lamps and reworked bumpers. Within, the GLA is expected to get a redesigned cabin, with the...

Suzuki, the parent company of Maruti, will collaborate with Toyota to develop new electric vehicles

Audi A7L launched for the Chinese market at Auto Shanghai 2021

For years, luxury carmakers have been producing models specifically for the Chinese market, with long-wheelbase variants of their standard models being one of the most common categories. The Audi A7 is the new model to receive the stretched treatment, but it's more than just a longer wheelbase. Although the Audi A7 is a sporty four-door coupe on the outside, the Audi A7L has a fully redesigned rear portion in addition to a longer wheelbase than the standard car. With the exception of different bumper and grille detailing, the nose is almost identical to the A7 Sportback. The differences become evident from the B-pillar onwards, as the Audi A7L ditches the Sportback's coupe silhouette in favor of a more traditional three-box design. When viewed from the back, the A7L and the A...

Below that is a curved intake with headlights that closely match the front end's rounded shape. Batteries and Range: The Mercedes EQB 350 will be available at launch with a 66.5kWh battery...

Yamaha’s Electric Dirt Bike Can Assist You In Learning Motocross Correctly

Dohms, a development company, and Eleo (formerly known as Spike Technologies), an electro-mobility company, have collaborated on an electric motocross bike. Elmar Dohms, who is not only the head of the production but also a motocross racer and a motocross trainer, came up with the concept. Yamaha Europe provided the electric dirt bike, which is based on the YZ250F. It's still in development mode, but it'll likely race in the 250cc motocross class. The heart of the machine is a powerful electric motor that can match the output of 250cc motorcycles. Having all of the bike's torque available from the start could make it more usable and quicker off the line. It's just a matter of the battery, which should last for at least 30 minutes of continuous riding. The EMX machin...
