We’ve driven the most powerful and extreme Defender from Land Rover yet, the Octa, and it ticks a lot of boxes with its 635PS and 800Nm, twin-turbocharged V8 engine. But does a brute of a petrol engine help the well-acclaimed Defender deliver an even wider grin on tarmac and more importantly, off-road? Stay tuned for our first drive review, coming up soon!

Letech, the German off-road specialist, and Ineos are finally introducing the Grenadier Quartermaster and Trailmaster with portal axles.

A new bull breaks cover!
It hasn’t taken Lamborghini too long to unveil a race-prepped version of its newest super-sportscar, dubbed the Temerario GT3. This isn’t just a Temerario with fancier bodywork - it ditches the road car’s rather complex hybrid system and has also been reworked extensively to meet regulations for GT3 racing. Whether it’s the aluminium spaceframe chassis or the 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, most components have been adapted to transform the Temerario GT3 into one of the fastest machines on track. With the hybrid unit gone, outputs have dropped, but this is a Lamborghini after all, and the Italian marque has ensured the car has shed lots of weight to make up for it.

Here are the headline figures:
- Twin-turbo, 4.0-litre, V8 engine
- 550PS (pure petrol powered, no hybrid assist!)
- ⁠Six-speed gearbox, RWD
- Aluminium chassis
- Carbon fiber bodywork
- Dry weight of just 1,300kg

So what are your thoughts about the latest race-prepped Lamborghini?

Mercedes-Benz is on a roll as the company has just launched the GLS AMG Line starting from ₹1.4 crore for the petrol variant and ₹1.43 crore for the diesel variant. Both the variants are mechanically unchanged from the regular variant, however, cosmetically they stand out quite a bit.

Here is a list of key changes:

Sporty front air intakes

AMG stainless steel pedals

Air outlets on the rear wings

Diffuser-look inserts at the rear

Larger front brake disc

AMG styled steering wheel

AMG Night package – with blacked out elements

Along with the launch of the GLS AMG Line, Mercedes-Benz is also celebrating their best sales ever with a growth of 10 percent. They are welcoming the FY 25-26 with a loud bang and the GLS AMG Line is just a teaser.

What are your thoughts on Mercedes-Benz’s growth in India?
