"Don't try to fix something that doesn't need fixing"- 2018 Hyundai Elite i20 Facelift

The i20 has been Hyundai's top selling car in the market for a number of years now... The first generation model was launched in 2009 which kick-started the premium hatch segment and then the second generation was launched in 2014 as the 'Elite i20' and instantly won the hearts of many... Now, in 2018, Hyundai have given us a facelift with some updated features and other minor changes.. Not a lot has changed when it comes to the exteriors of the car, they have re-designed the grill a little bit, changed the shape of fog-lamps and added cornering lamps in the headlight cluster... Not much has changed from the sides, only the new diamond cut alloys for the 16 inch wheels... The rear sees most of the changes made on the exteriors with the new LED tail lamps which some would say don't look as good as before but thats subjective really along with the newly designed rear reflector and reversing/fog lamp... The interior also is more of an evolution than a revolution

The Creta Killer??? - Renault Captur Review

Renault is pretty new to the Indian scene compared to its rivals who have had a lot more time to figure out the 'do's and dont's' of the Indian automobile market... But in recent times their sales have gone up considerably since the introduction of the Kwid and a revamp of the Duster... Although they have been somewhat of a success, these cars lack the premium feel that is offered by their immediate rivals, until now.. Renault's latest challenger, the Captur has caught the eyes of many since its launch in November 2017 because of its premium appeal... The Captur is based on the Duster platform but has a completely different european flavor to it, the French manufacturer has completely thrown out the boxy, SUV like design of the Duster and made it a lot more sleek and pleasing to look at and manage to somehow still keep the SUV appeal... The party piece of the Captur is definitely the LED headlight cluster with swiping indicators which Renault calls 'f

2018 Hyundai Creta Facelift- First Impression

The Creta was first showcased to the world by Hyundai in 2014 and it made it to the Indian market the following year(i.e. 2015)… Over the next three years Hyundai kept giving it little updates, the most remarkable of which was the dual tone colour schemes… But in 2018, three full years after launch, the Korean manufacturer finally decided to give the highly desired Creta a fresh look and a host of new features to add to the existing pretty accomplished vehicle… Lets start with the exteriors, most of the changes have occurred on the front with the new grill which gives it a more subtle look, the grey skid plate added to give it a more imposing SUV-like stance… The headlight cluster also gets small changes, the most noticeable of which is the repositioning of the LED DRLs which now are placed around the new squared-off fog-lamps instead of the rectangular ones in the outgoing model… The rear only gets small changes like a new skid plate and a slight change in the back-light
