Jaguar has not changed the petrol engine as it continues to deliver 250hp and 365 Nm torque. Both the engines pair with a 9-speed automatic transmission system and feature an AWD system as the standard offering.

The other notable addition is Jaguar Land Rover's latest Pivi Pro Infotainment system. Again, the 3D camera is an improvement over the existing rear view camera. 

Other exciting features include a PM2.5 air filter and wireless device charging facilities equipped with a phone signal booster.

The 2021 Range Rover features a new dual-tone Deep Garnet/Ebony interiors for the first time.

While testing the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway, Union Minister Nitin Gadkari car hit the 170Km/h. In a [video](link), we can see the Union Minister is sitting Co-Driver Seat and keep on asking a few questions to the Person. While reviewing the progress of the Expressway, which is meant to reduce the timing between two cities. Gadkari, who spent a good amount of time at the expressway also tested the speed threshold of the road. 

Nitin Gadkari asked about the highway and how much speed it can handle? With the officials of the expressway in the car, Gadkari was trying to gauge if a fighter plane can land on the highway.

He said on camera that there is enough space for a small plane to land on the highway. Then the car took a U-Turn and that is when the driver of the Kia Carnival pressed the throttle of the MPV.

The video shows the Kia Carnival reaching high speeds within a matter of few seconds. The Carnival also touched a high speed of 170 km/h. Since the expressway is currently not open and Gadkari’s convoy was the only few vehicles on the stretch it was safe to test the high speed.
The expressway will have a top speed limit of 120 km/h. However, it will be able to handle speeds much higher than that translating into quicker emergency services and also emergency plane landings if the need arises.
 
The 1,380 km long expressway between Delhi and Mumbai will become India’s longest expressway. It is built at a cost of Rs 98,000 crore. Out of the total highway length, contracts for 1,200 km of roadwork is already awarded and the work is in progress. The highway will cut travelling time between the two capitals by almost 12 hours.

**Thar crossing river without a snorkel, Anand Mahindra Shares The Video**

Before you get into this news, you should be aware of this important piece of advice, So you would not think to attempt this step. The Thar has no modifications to it to make it more off-road capable. It is running on stock tyres, has no lift kit and does not even have a snorkel but still, the driver is able to cross the river. The driver enters the river at carrying decent speed. When he had crossed half of the river, the current of the river drags the SUV with it but the driver somehow manages to escape it. We can see Thar struggling for a bit. Almost half the SUV was under the water, the river must have had rocks at the bottom because if it would have been sand the tyres would have lost traction and get stuck. It is quite commendable of the Thar to be able to cross a fast-flowing river that too in a stock form.

Having said that, you should never attempt such things. There are a lot of things that could have gone wrong. The current could have carried the SUV with it, the tyres could have lost traction and the Thar could get stuck and the engine could have got hydro locked because there was no snorkel installed.

As we all know Anand Mahindra always shares some of the interesting and trendy news on his [Twitter account](link). This time he also does the same, he shares a video of Mahindra Thar crossing the high flowing river. 

Share this video, Anand Mahindra wrote on Twitter “After I RT’d the tweet about a Bolero in Gujarat wading through floodwaters, several of you shared this video that’s circulating on @YouTube I think we may well have to create a new vertical called ‘MahindraAmphibious Vehicles’ (MAV’s!)”

![MAHINDRA TWEET.PNG](https://delen.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/MAHINDRA_TWEET_75f6268fcc.PNG)

Nowadays, vehicles have a lot of electronics built into them. There are special sensors placed that can detect water and shut down the engine to prevent damage. This is called hydro locking. You would have to rebuild your engine to make sure that there is no water inside the engine compartment. Rebuilding an engine costs a lot because the whole engine needs to come out of the vehicle and then it is disassembled, cleaned and then reassembled. The Thar that we see in the video is equipped with a petrol engine mated to an automatic transmission. Mahindra is also offering a diesel engine mated to the same automatic transmission. Both the engines are also offered with a manual gearbox. Mahindra offers a 4×4 system with a low range gearbox as standard with the Thar.
Always Keep in mind the technical info of the car which you have been using and going to use to perform such deadly stunt, we do not support any kind of such steps.

**Hyundai i20 N Line 1.0  review**

![1.jpg](https://delen.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/1_b04c1bb9e3.jpg)

Hyundai is planning to enter the Indian Market with the hot hatchback segment feature. After attempting many attempts and got failed every time by the different companies, Hyundai tried to bring this segment in the Indian market. It is their first product under the N Line category. 

![2.jpg](https://delen.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/2_aab02fcdb7.jpg)

 
Hyundai has gone for a lot more aggressive with the styling on the i20 N Line when compared to the regular version. The front gets the same dominating grille but, the chequered flag design inside the grille differentiated it from the regular i20. N Line badge is also seen on the grille with the Hyundai logo in the centre. The headlights in the N Line version are projector units instead of an all-LED unit.

![3.jpg](https://delen.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/3_fe5e55b62a.jpg)


It also gives the front the gloss black insert on the lower part of the bumper which forms a lower bumper lip. The front lip has a Red accent on it. The fog lamp gets a dark chrome garnish around it which completes the front look.

![4.jpg](https://delen.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/4_197c31bee8.jpg)

Moving to the side profile, the wheels now comes with much more sporty looking 16-inch alloy wheels. The i20 N Line gets disc brakes on all four wheels and the front brakes get Red brake callipers too. N Line badging can be seen here on the fenders too. The side skirt on the i20 N Line is finished in black with a red accent and other than that no major changes are seen here.

![5.jpg](https://delen.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/5_70cd595c3e.jpg)

The Rear gets the same all-LED tail lamps with a dark chrome strip running all across the boot. There is a gloss-black spoiler and a shark fin antenna on the top as well. Coming down, the bumper gets a gloss black diffuser at the lower part with the twin tip exhausts popping out from one side.

![6.jpg](https://delen.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/6_744cdaa995.jpg)

Let’s get inside the car, The design of the cabin has not changed, if we compared to the regular version. I20 N Line is available in N6 and N8 trims and both these trims offer decent amount features. The cabin gets an all-black theme which is broken with the red accents at places. These accents are seen on the AC vents, AC buttons, door trims and on the gear knob.

![7.jpg](https://delen.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/7_4808a023f0.jpg)

It gets an N Line steering wheel. The seats and the steering are all wrapped in leatherette material. The steering wheel has red stitching on it. There is no change in the amount of space that it offers. It continues to offer BlueLink connected car features, an electric sunroof, voice recognition function, wireless phone charger and many more features.

![8.jpg](https://delen.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/8_abeba1510c.jpg)
 
The gear knob in the N Line version is exclusively designed for this version. It even comes with Red coloured ambient lights and the top end N8 trim offers 6 airbags, Bose premium speaker system, a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment screen and many more features.

![9.jpg](https://delen.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/9_d389876a9b.jpg)

Let’s drive it, engine is still powered by the same 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine which is available with regular i20 and many other Hyundai cars like Venue and even of regular i20. It generates 120 Ps and 172 Nm of peak torque. In terms of performance, the N Line does 0-100 kmph sprint in 9.9 seconds. This engine is available with a 6-speed iMT and a 7-speed DCT gearbox option. The one we drove was the 7-speed DCT and we’ll be talking about that only.

![10.jpg](https://delen.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/10_caf817bb71.jpg)

Hyundai has made some mechanical changes to make it a little different. For example the steering, in the regular version you get light steering which is great for city driving conditions but, at higher speeds, light steering does not give you confidence. Hyundai corrected this in the N-Line version and it now gets well-weighted steering which is comfortable in the city as well as on the highways.

![11.jpg](https://delen.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/11_ef09c88b82.jpg)

The other change they have made here is the suspension. In comparison to the regular version, N-Line gets a stiffer suspension setup which lets you attack a corner without being thrown around. The suspension is both positive and negative about the i20 N-Line. if you are a person looking for a softer suspension setup, you have the regular turbo petrol version of the i20 on offer.

With disc brakes on all wheels, the braking performance of the i20 N-Line has also improved. Hyundai says the braking distance has improved by almost 1.8 meters and we believe them. There is ample bite from the brakes and that offers a lot more confidence to the driver. 

![12.jpg](https://delen.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/12_60c0d945b9.jpg)

Hyundai is offering the i20 N Line in N6 iMT, N8 iMT and N8 DCT variants and the Prices for these variants are Rs 9.84 lakh, Rs 10.87 lakh, Rs 11.75 lakh (all prices are ex-showroom) respectively. It Is available in six colour options out of which two are dual tone and the other four are monotone. When compared with the top-end Asta (O) DCT i20, the N Line N8 DCT is almost Rs 50,000 more expensive. Hyundai says that they have made changes to the car that are roughly around Rs 1.25 lakh. Instead of bringing the full-blown N variant to India, Hyundai launched the N Line and we feel that it is a wise decision by all means

**BMW Reveals the I Vision Circular at The IAA Exhibition **

![i vision.jpg](https://delen.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/i_vision_92e96ee574.jpg)

The four-seater i Vision Circular is powered entirely by electricity and has a significant amount of internal room despite its four-metre length. It was also built across the board using circular economy concepts, symbolising the BMW Group's ambitious goal of being the world's most sustainable manufacturer in the individual luxury mobility market.
 
The BMW i Vision Circular's overarching design goal was to build a vehicle that is optimised for closed materials cycles and achieves 100% recycled material utilisation/100% recyclability. The same can be said for the energy storage device: the BMW I Vision Circular's all-solid-state battery is 100 per cent recyclable and made almost exclusively of components derived from the recycling cycle. It will have a far greater energy density while using far fewer of the most precious materials.

![1.jpg](https://delen.s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/1_ba8a464bc6.jpg)
 
"We gave thorough consideration to circularity from the outset during the design process for the BMW i Vision Circular. As a result, this Vision Vehicle is packed with innovative ideas for combining sustainability with a new, inspirational aesthetic  we call this approach 'circular design'," explains Adrian van Hooydonk, Head of BMW Group Design.
The BMW i Insight Vision App is a brand-new way to engage with and experience the BMW I Vision Circular. The software visualises the four main principles of the circular economy - rethink, reduce, reuse and recycle using a variety of diverse instances. With the aid of augmented reality, all features of the Vision Vehicle may be discovered in a fun way.
 
BMW plans to introduce 12 new electric vehicles globally by 2023, before the fundamentally different Neue Klasse generation of electric vehicles debuts in 2025.
 
While BMW claims that the i Vision Circular will not be produced, it's probable that some of the design elements and "circular economy" ideas that support it will be employed in the company's future electric vehicles.
