Top 5 Car News Of The Week: 5 Car Launches And Auto Expo 2020 Update

The last 7 days were bustling with news about upcoming and new car launches. Auto Expo 2020 is around the corner and the automotive scene is abuzz. If news like Skoda’s hot sedan evaded your weary eye, here’s a roundup of all the car news from last week:

Tata Nexon EV Launched

Tata joined the long-range EV game with a pretty face and 245Nm of emission-free torque. It’s a car that we have driven and tortured to the last bar of its battery. But will India be kinder to the Nexon EV than it has been to the pricier Kona which sold just 292 units from April to December? 

Range Rover Evoque Launched

The sleeker and more modern Evoque is here! It’s the baby Range Rover but there’s no kidding about its 430Nm of diesel torque. This is a car that can take you mudslinging at one moment, then drop you off on the red carpet the next. But if you have a bit more cash to spend on your next SUV, read on. 

2020 Mercedes-Benz GLE Launched

You can have the new GLE in two variants -- the sensible and approachable 300d and the insane 400d. The latter is nearly half a crore pricier than the former. But for those who can’t stop bouncing to music on a Burmester sound system, the GLE 400d is the best bedroom wall poster. 

Lamborghini Huracan EVO RWD Launched

The new rear-drive Huracan sees Lamborghini putting aside its serious face for some old-fashioned Italian fun. Pro tip: It’s the Sport mode that lets you drift. You have to have deep pockets and a big heart to buy one of these. 

Lexus LC500h Launched

If you end up hardly driving your LC, put it up in a glass case for everybody to see. But this mile-muncher is really meant to be driven on the open highway. It has sports-car-like performance and an un-sportscar-like fuel economy. 

Auto Expo Update: 

The Expo starts next week for us and the following weekend for you. By this time, we are sure you’ve heard everything about the Expo from us. A deluge of SUVs aside, some interesting vans are coming to the show, too. Watch Mahindra, Skoda, and Mercedes reveal new cars next week.
