Great vechile

The Epic Split ad, featuring Jean-Claude Van Damme, was a landmark campaign that showcased the steering precision and stability of Volvo trucks. This campaign is widely regarded as one of the most successful and memorable marketing efforts in Volvo's history.

Do not buy this car

We gave purchased the Land Rover Discovery Sport in 2024 and it has proved to be a very unreliable car. The battery had to be replaced in 6 months. Thereafter, one of the tyres was punctured, and recently, two tyres burst simultaneously. The car is driven within city limits with occasional trip to resorts in Maharashtra. The car has not been used for off-roading and has clocked in only 10,000 km.

BMW X3 xDrive20 M Sport

I like BMW very much, the way it drifts and the smoothness it has. I really like it very much, its mileage is also good in diesel and its safety is also awesome, and its technology is also good.

2025 Volvo XC60 First Drive Review

By Sagar Bhanushali12 Sep 2025

The Volvo XC60 is perhaps the most unassuming luxury SUV in India. It isn’t flashy in its appearance, nor does it go overboard with gimmicks. Instead, it lays emphasis on safety, comfort, and an offbeat, Scandinavian approach to luxury.

2024 Land Rover Discovery Sport First Drive Review

By Sagar Bhanushali27 Jun 2024

It’s a midlife update for the Land Rover Discovery Sport, arguably one of the most versatile SUVs available in India.
