Overpriced car from toyota.

Its overpriced car from Toyota. A pickup truck with approx. 40 lakhs does not sense. Even Isuzu top variant is 30 lakhs. Indians will not be interested for a truck at this price. Truck is the new category in India. So price should be fair. This car is assembled in India not having production line that's why price is so high.

Audi a3

I used this car since years. This car is very comfortable and luxurious. But the service cost is very high. This was the problem only. Otherwise, the car was very good. The car looks sporty and luxurious.

CarWale Off-Road Day 2023: Toyota Hilux

By Ninad Ambre02 Dec 2023

I'm smitten by pickup trucks and their versatility. So, there's no second guessing what I chose when the Toyota Hilux made it to the line-up of the fourth edition of CarWale's annual off-road day. In fact, it was the only massive pickup amongst SUVs here. To cope with the bulk, it has a 2.8-litre turbo diesel engine producing 200bhp and 500Nm of torque. All this power is routed through a six-speed torque converter automatic to the four-wheel-drive system. The latter gets High (H4) and Low (L4) range paired with electronic 2WD/4WD control. Despite the length, it has good approach (29.22degree) and departure (26.36degree) angles and runs on stock Bridgestone tyres (265/60 R18). Let's see how it performed.

2017 Audi A3 35 TDI First Drive Review

By Sagar Bhanushali24 Feb 2017

Premium compact sedans were unheard of when Audi India brought along the A3 in mid-2014. Sharing market space with a few luxury hatchbacks at the time, the A3 ticked most of the right boxes for first-time premium car buyers and came with a good mix of luxury and performance. Fast-forward three years and this segment has expanded somewhat, allowing Audi India to burst on to the scene again with the updated 2017 A3.
