BabyBlade Internal Moderator November 23, 2020 Author Share November 23, 2020 The Mazda CX-30 delivers a comfortable drive thanks to its various driver assistance features. Couple that with its distinctive exterior styling and a premium looking cabin and the car makes a good case against its larger and more spacious rivals asking for the same price. Could it convince you as well? Just what should you prioritise in your crossover? All this and more in our latest video review! ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BabyBlade Internal Moderator December 8, 2020 Author Share December 8, 2020 The Kia Sorento is now more beefy looking with its new boxy silhouette. Sharp creases throughout its exterior, alongside that posh looking yet practical interior mean the car is now a far more premium looking and feeling thing as well. Does this mean that the car is still a high-value option for those shopping for a seven-seater SUV? Just which spec should you opt for?

BabyBlade Internal Moderator December 10, 2020 Author Share December 10, 2020 The Mercedes-AMG CLA 45S delivers 416bhp from its turbochared and manic 2.0-litre four-cylinder. An excellent soundtrack, aggressive styling and practical usability also add to the appeal of this four-door coupe. Does that make it a proper AMG? Is it something that you can live with everyday?

BabyBlade Internal Moderator December 21, 2020 Author Share December 21, 2020 The new Hyundai Avante sports stunning looks inside and out.

BabyBlade Internal Moderator December 25, 2020 Author Share December 25, 2020 The Kia Seltos sports a handsome boxy exterior with a tall driving position, perfect for all those looking for more SUV-like character in their compact crossover. Should you let the Seltos' country of origin dissuade you from puchasing one? We discuss this and much more in this video review! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watwheels Supersonic December 25, 2020 Share December 25, 2020 The review seems biased towards performance when this is a family car. In this segment the competition is tough. Why rivals are using mostly cvt gb is for fuel efficiency whereby the review rarely touch on. Sure, if you say it's more like a test drive rather than a long term review. But for obviously reason cars of this budget most buyers would consider for cars with low fuel consumption. And now that it's known that small capacity turbocharged engine are not as fuel efficient as previously thought. Why is KIA still using them? A DCT is more suited for performance car and this is not it. It's an overkill for a family car. Do most buyers want to be fast? Most drivers I see on the road do not drive like their pants are on fire. If you want to talk about overtaking...again this is a family car. Chill. Relac on the performance talk on a family car. But there's a redeeming factor which is the spacious rear passenger seats. For tall ppl they will feel comfortable be it front or back. No stupid sloping roof and trying to look like a coupe when it's a SUV. That makes getting into the car w/o hitting your head so difficult. This car dont have this problem. As for interior quality....sad to say what you pay is what you get for this segment. Cant expect much. But having cool ventilated seats is definitely a good feature in our type of weather. I have no comment on the "assembled in India" part but the 3rd party sourced parts will be made in India. I think mostly we will see them in the interior. Only in the long term we will get to see how the parts stand up to our weather. If the parts were to be made in Mexico or South Africa those cheap plastics confirm cmi. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made in India and in fact Made in Thailand as well can be accepted if it is priced accordingly but trouble is the manufacturers still charging prices which are almost equivalent to say Made in Japan Mazda cars for example. 8 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BabyBlade Internal Moderator December 29, 2020 Author Share December 29, 2020 The Honda City not only looks like its larger sibling a few classes up, the Honda Accord, it also delivers a ride quality and insulation levels that can rival cars from a class above. With generous space for passengers and your luggage as well, could this be your next compact sedan of choice? Watch the video to find out! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
