Honda to Release a 7-Seater SUV (as a Replacement for the BR-V) in August

The BR-V will be replaced by a production three-row SUV based on the Honda N7X model, which will be powered by a 1.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine. Honda unveiled the N7X concept in Indonesia earlier this month, and the production model will be available in August. The three-row SUV is expected to share a lot of similarities with the City mid-size sedan, including the powertrain, and it will most likely be a replacement for the BR-V, which has been on sale in India since 2016. The N7X prototype is already close to being ready for production, giving us a good idea of what to expect when the production-ready model arrives. It will compete in the Indonesian market against the Toyota Avanza, Daihatsu Xenia, and other family-based seven-seater SUVs. The N7X takes styling cues from...

Mercedes-Benz EQT Concept Unveiled: Electric-powered V-Class

This is the latest Mercedes-Benz EQT, which can seat up to seven people across three rows of seats. The EQT is a smaller version of the EQV, which is an electric V-Class vehicle. However, the EQT is actually just an idea, but the real thing should arrive soon. The EQT EV is expected to be the production version, but petrol and diesel-powered models will be available as the latest Mercedes-Benz T-Class. Five seats will be available in the short-wheelbase variant. A long-wheelbase variant, the 7-seat model, will also be available. In 2022, the EQT and T-Class are scheduled to arrive. The T-Class, like the Mercedes-Benz X-Class pickup truck, was built in collaboration with Renault. Since both use the Renault CMF-B platform, the T-Class and the new generation Renault Kangoo will have a...

At the Nürburgring, the BMW M4 GT3 made its debut

Raise your hand if you think the new BMW M3 and M4 are a little too subtle for you. We don't see a lot of hands. But what about those sheepishly sticking their mitts up at the back? Let's hope you're a licensed racer. And the answer is right here. The BMW M4 GT3 is seen here. It was previewed alongside the camo-clad road car last year but has now made a ‘confident appearance' at the Nürburgring Nordschleife, according to BMW. Sure, the M4 would probably characterize itself on Tinder as having a "confident look," but maybe a crazy race car costume would better suit its big-toothed face. And in a case where massive gaping intakes are useful and a massive rear wing means the whole thing looks like a caricature anyway. “From my initial impressions on the Nordschleife, the BMW M4 GT3 has mai...

What to expect from the Maruti Suzuki S-Presso and Tata HBX competitor Hyundai AX1 micro SUV?

The Hyundai AX1 is the codename for the Korean automaker's upcoming micro SUV. The official name is now hidden away in a safe in Seoul. However, the automaker has teased the AX1 SUV with a couple of obscure teaser images, implying that a full unveiling is on the way. Hyundai hasn't committed to any particular requirements or features for the time being. The only real proof we have is the test mule photos and the two teaser images. However, for the time being, all we can do is look back at patterns to see what Hyundai may have in store for the AX1. The AX1 will be a subcompact SUV that will sit below the Venue. The AX1 will be a global product, similar to the Location, but we believe it will be in higher demand in India, Asia, and Africa. The AX1 will be a subcompact SUV that will si...

In Texas, two people were killed when a Tesla car with “no one” driving crashed

According to local officials, a Tesla Inc. electric car that "no one" claimed to be driving crashed late Saturday in Texas, erupting in flames and killing the two passengers. In a telephone interview, Harris County Precinct 4 Constable Mark Herman said one victim was found in the front passenger seat of a 2019 Model S and the other in the back. After driving at high speeds and failing to make a right, the car crashed into a tree in the Carlton Woods neighborhood near The Woodlands.
