      MG Windsor EV Vs Curvv EV, XUV400, Nexon EV, Punch EV – Specs, Prices Compared

      by

      MG Windsor EVOffering battery as a service on Windsor EV might turn out to be next most widely offered strategy in Indian electric vehicle scene
      With huge growth ambitions, JSW MG Motor JV has come up with a unique product proposition in the form of Windsor EV. It is the first passenger electric car in India to offer battery as a service and strikes a very tempting price point as battery is not part of the ownership. Thus striking a tempting Rs 9.99 lakh introductory price ex-sh.
      However, this pricing lends unique perspectives. Perspectives we never even dreamed of having before the launch of Windsor EV. We say this because MG Windsor EV is a direct rival to Curvv, by size. But it is just as affordable as a Punch EV, where initial buying costs are concerned. Let’s take a look.
      MG Windsor EV Vs Rivals
      Interestingly, Punch EV has arrived at Rs. 9.99 lakh (Ex-sh) due to the festive offers and will revert back to its original prices, starting at Rs 10.99 lakh (Ex-sh). Not only is MG offering battery as a service, but there is free public charging for initial buyers for a whole year since purchase, significantly contributing to savings, despite the Rs 3.5/km battery rental charge.
      Where value is concerned, MG Windsor is unbeatable and offerings from Tata, Mahindra and even MG’s own ZS EV look obsolete. Immediate rival, the Tata Curvv comes off as the most expensive in this comparison, starting at Rs 17.49 lakh (Ex-sh). Windsor EV offers a 38 kWh battery as a service, charging Rs 3.5 per km.
      MG Windsor EV Vs Rivals – Specs
      Performance is one aspect associated with EVs, owing to their vigorous acceleration. Among this bunch, nothing beats Mahindra XUV400 with its mammoth 310 Nm electric motor, sprinting to 100 km/h a hair above 8 seconds. On paper, Tata Curvv EV 55 kWh packs 165 horses, but it is not as blistering as XUV400, as we found out during the first-drive review in Udaipur.
      Owing to its larger battery, Curvv pulls ahead with around 500 km of claimed range. MG Windsor promises 331 km on a single charge. In terms of charging, Tata Curvv has a clear edge supporting 70 kW DC charging and comes with a 7.2 kW charger as standard. Owing to their segments, Nexon EV and Punch EV don’t get all-wheel disc brakes as standard fitment.
      The size quotient
      As MG Windsor EV aims for a crossover design silhouette between a hatchback, a sedan and an SUV, it is the biggest 4.3m vehicle on sale in India. The crossover design has allowed the A-Pillars to be forward-set and the 2,700 mm long wheelbase is unmatched. Thus carving immense room on the inside, beating vehicles a segment above.
      MG Windsor EV Vs Rivals – Dimensions
      Windsor EV is the widest and tallest as well. Not only in this comparison but in C-Segment (Compact SUVs) and a segment above. This CUV silhouette has also allowed for best-in-class boot space of 604L, starting from 579L. Nexon EV’s and XUV400’s wheel size is 16-inches as standard, while Punch EV offers 15-inch and 16-inch options. Both Curvv and Windsor EV offer 17-inch and 18-inch alloy wheels.
      Features are subjective, but price, specifications and space are objective. Thus commanding this interesting comparison between MG Windsor EV, Mahindra XUV400, Tata Curvv EV, Nexon EV and Punch EV. As we can see, JSW MG Motor seems to have turned the table around in their favour. We will have to see the market reception of Windsor EV with sales data in the future. More

      by

      Honda NX125 Patented in IndiaOriginally introduced in the Chinese market, Honda NX125 is designed to make daily commutes a lot more fun and exciting
      Honda offers a wide range of 125cc scooters across various international markets. One of these is NX125, one of the popular options in China. A recent patent filing reveals that Honda is planning to introduce the NX125 in other markets as well.
      Honda NX125 patented – Key features
      Design patent for Honda NX125 reveals that the overall profile is largely the same as the model sold in China. The sharp, radical styling immediately gets one’s attention. With its visually attractive maxi-scooter styling, Honda NX125 is a suitable choice for the young generation. In China, the Honda NX125 is offered with striking dual-tone colour options. Coupled with the sporty graphics and brand lettering, Honda NX125 is easily noticeable on the streets.
      Honda NX125 Patented in India
      Overall design of NX125 represents the concepts of fashion and freedom and appeals to folks who dare to be different. Some of the key features include dual LED headlights and position lights, sharp body panelling and diamond-shaped tail light.
      The scooter has alloy wheels, a compact visor, sporty rear-view mirrors, comfy single piece seat and robust grab rails. NX125 has a disc brake at front for improved braking performance. Honda NX125 has a dynamic LCD instrument console with crisp and concise information display. The unique polygonal shape of the instrument ensures a sporty look and feel.

With a kerb weight of 106 kg, Honda NX125 is among the lightweight 125cc scooters.
      New Honda NX125
      Even in India, 125cc scooters like TVS Jupiter 125, Honda Activa 125 and the recently launched new Destini 125 are heavier than NX125. But there are even more lightweight 125cc scooters such as Suzuki Access 125 (104 kg) and Yamaha Fascino 125 (99 kg). With a lightweight profile, a higher power-to-weight ratio can be achieved. Honda NX125 has a rated max speed of 88 km/h. Dimensionally, the scooter is 1,804 mm long, 686 mm wide and 1,110 mm tall. It has a wheelbase of 1,245 mm.
      New Honda NX125 Specs
      It is not certain when Honda NX125 will be introduced in India. For folks who prefer a sportier styling, Honda already offers the Grazia 125. Assuming Honda NX125 is launched in India, it will take on rivals such as TVS Ntorq 125, Suzuki Burgman Street and Aprilia SXR 125. More

      How Hyundai Ioniq 5 Offers More Value Than Cars Twice Its Price

      by

      Hyundai Ioniq 5 VersatilyWith a host of features and creature comforts for both 1st and 2nd row occupants, Hyundai Ioniq 5 offers a lot more than for the price
      India’s luxury car market offers several appealing options under Rs 1 crore (ex-showroom), but premium electric vehicles are now raising the bar, offering exceptional value. One standout in this category is the Hyundai Ioniq 5, delivering an impressive package for under Rs 50 lakh. Here’s how the Ioniq 5 competes with, and even outshines, cars priced at Rs 1 crore (ex-showroom).
      1. Pricing
      One of Hyundai Ioniq 5’s strongest selling points is its highly competitive price. Thanks to being imported via the CKD route, the Ioniq 5 benefits from lower taxes, making it a great value proposition. Available at Rs 46.05 lakh (ex-sh). For comparison, several electric crossover SUVs with smaller batteries, reduced range, less performance, and less dynamic FWD layouts are priced up to 50% higher than the Ioniq 5. Additionally, many similarly sized ICE SUVs cost significantly more than the Ioniq 5.
      Hyundai Ioniq5
      2. Design
      The Hyundai Ioniq 5 is undeniably a striking vehicle. While design preferences can be subjective, it’s hard to imagine anyone disliking its unique aesthetic. Hyundai has seamlessly blended retro charm with modern design elements, creating a cohesive and stylish machine. The silhouette is that of a large hatchback, enhanced with a crossover twist thanks to the rugged body cladding.
      Retro touches, such as pixel-inspired LED lighting at the front and rear and alloy wheels with a swirling pattern reminiscent of classic wire-spoke designs, add to its visual appeal. The Ioniq 5’s design makes a powerful first impression. Inside, the minimalistic approach is complemented by a range of innovative features, enhancing both style and functionality.
      Hyundai Ioniq 5 Eco Credentials
      3. Inviting & Eco-conscious Interiors
      On the inside, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 offers a minimalist yet luxurious and sophisticated atmosphere. Two large 12.3-inch displays—one for infotainment and the other for instrumentation—dominate the dashboard, add a modern, high-tech vibe. The seats are well-cushioned and upholstered with premium materials, with the front seats ventilated and both front and rear seats powered. Standout features include a stylish 2-spoke steering wheel, a sliding glove box, calf rests for the front seats, and other thoughtful design elements.
      In addition to its eco-friendly powertrain, Hyundai has incorporated sustainable materials into the Ioniq 5’s interior. Eco-processed leather, natural flower-derived paint, recyclable paperette on the door trims, seatbacks and door armrests made from recycled bottles, and headliners and carpets derived from plant waste are just a few examples. Hyundai India’s commitment to sustainability is further reflected in its RE100 (100% renewable energy) initiative, setting it apart from many rival brands in the market.
      Hyundai Ioniq 5 Interiors
      4. Accommodating Space
      Thanks to its E-GMP platform, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 boasts a generous 3,000 mm wheelbase, which is comparable to the current Mercedes-Benz E-Class LWB. This translates into a spacious interior that can comfortably cater to both families and chauffeur-driven owners, a versatility rarely seen in crossovers and SUVs under Rs 1 crore in India. The 531L boot space is also ample for a vehicle of this size.
      To further enhance its appeal to chauffeur-driven customers, the Ioniq 5 comes equipped with features like electrically operated rear seats, three adjustable headrests, a center armrest, rear window sunshades, and a dedicated blower with AC vents on the B-pillars. Additionally, the electrically operated Boss mode for rear passengers adds an extra layer of luxury. These features are rare in vehicles under Rs 1 crore and almost unheard of in those under Rs 50 lakh, making the Ioniq 5 stand out even more.
      Hyundai Ioniq 5 Comfort
      5. Versatility with Performance
      While the Hyundai Ioniq 5’s 0-100 km/h sprint in around 7.5 seconds may not be the fastest, it strikes an ideal balance between versatility and performance, making it one of the best crossover SUVs in India. While some dual-motor SUVs can achieve 0-100 km/h in about 5 seconds under Rs 1 crore, they often lack the practicality and versatility that the Ioniq 5 offers.
      The Ioniq 5 excels in its ability to be both a driver’s car and a chauffeur-driven owner’s vehicle, a rare combination. Its impressive ARAI-certified range of 631 km ensures that daily commutes and long road trips are hassle-free. The convenience of a steering column-mounted gear selector and Porsche-inspired mode selector on the steering wheel adds to its appeal, further highlighting its dual-purpose nature.
      Hyundai Ioniq 5 Boot
      In conclusion, the Hyundai Ioniq 5 redefines what an electric vehicle can offer in the sub-Rs 1 crore segment. With its competitive pricing under Rs 50 lakh, innovative design, eco-friendly materials, spacious interiors, and versatile performance, it effortlessly combines luxury and practicality. Whether you’re looking for a daily driver or a chauffeur-driven experience, the Ioniq 5 ticks all the boxes, providing incredible value without compromising on features. It’s a car that not only competes with much more expensive rivals but also sets a new benchmark for what buyers can expect in this price range. More

      Hero HF Dawn Spied Testing – The Next Big Thing In Commuter Motorcycles?

      by

      New Hero HF Dawn Spied TestingLooking close to production, Hero HF Dawn might be the most affordable motorcycle on sale in India when it is launched soon
      India is one of, if not, the largest 2W market on earth. Establishing dominance in this market is paramount. The best way to crack this market is to launch affordable commuters, which still forms the major chunk of sales. Hero has aced this genre and is taking the game to the next level with upcoming HF Dawn, which has been spotted testing recently.
      Hero HF Dawn Spotted Testing
      World’s largest motorcycle manufacturer, Hero MotoCorp, is the best-selling 2W brand in India. The company relies heavily on its 100cc portfolio with Splendor brand being the golden goose. Hero MotoCorp has been witnessing stiff competition from HMSI (Honda Motorcycles and Scooters India).
      Hero has regained market leadership last month in domestic market, but only by a small margin. To expand its market share, Hero intends to pull out the big guns in the form of HF Dawn, which was discontinued in May 2017 owing to poor sales. However, times are different today and Hero needs a more affordable 100cc offering.
      This is where the recently spied Hero HF Dawn comes into play. With less equipment and bodywork than every other Hero offering today, HF Dawn could very well be the most affordable Hero motorcycle and the most affordable motorcycle of any brand.
      Hero HF Dawn Pre 2017
      Currently, HF 100 is the most affordable offering from Hero MotoCorp and the upcoming HF Dawn will be positioned below that. Think, of a price point of around Rs 55,000 (Ex-sh), as opposed to HF 100’s Rs 59,018 (Ex-sh) pricing. We can see very basic componentry and equipment with HF Dawn.
      The larger headlight setup with a cowl on HF 100 will be replaced with a simpler round headlight. This round headlight looks better, if you ask me. There will be a simple analogue instrument cluster and elements like a tachometer and fuel meter might be absent. Electric self start will be a “feature” on this motorcycle.
      When will it launch?
      Wheels are alloys, similar to the one seen in HF 100. Braking is via drum units at both ends. Seat is long and rear is suspended by twin shock absorbers and front gets RSU telescopic forks. All the lighting will be via halogen bulbs.
      Hero HF 100
      An exact launch timeline from Hero MotoCorp is yet to be announced, but the test mule spied recently looked production-ready. It will bear the same 97.2cc single-cylinder air-cooled unit with around 8 bhp of peak power and 8 Nm of peak torque, mated to a 4-speed gearbox. This engine might not get i3S stop/start feature to keep pricing competitive.

      Citroen C5 Aircross EV Spied Testing Without Any Camouflage

      by

      Citroen C5 Aircross EV SpiedCurrently, 48V self-charging Hybrid and PHEV versions are on sale and for the first time, we can see a Citroen C5 Aircross EV
      Globally, Stellantis conglomeration is under a major crisis and Citroen, one of its subsidiaries, has been facing tough times as well. Recently, Citroen even called it quits in Australia after operating there for over 100 years. Amidst all these crises, Global Citroen is soldiering ahead with a new all-electric C5 Aircross SUV and seems to be in final stages of testing.
      Citroen C5 Aircross EV Spied
      After launching C3 and C3 Aircross SUVs (global-spec), Citroen has turned its gaze towards C5 Aircross SUV. It has to be noted that C5 Aircross is the largest SUV Citroen makes and is of paramount importance for the brand in the premium segment.
      Citroen C5 Aircross EV Spied
      Even amidst dwindling sales and unsure future of C5 Aircross, Citroen is willing to launch an all-electric version of it, showing its commitment to electric powertrains and its projected future. The test mules of an all-electric Citroen C5 have been spotted for the first time in Southern Europe.
      Currently, Citroen sells a 48V self-charging hybrid and a more advanced plug-in hybrid version of C5 Aircross SUV. But a fully electric model is spotted for the first time. CEO of Stellantis, Carlos Tavares, had confirmed the development of an all-electric Citroen C5 Aircross and a year later, we get to see prototypes in what seems like final stages of testing.
      Citroen C5 Aircross EV Battery
      The test mule in these spy shots carry identical bodywork as outgoing C5 Aircross Hybrid. We can even see a Hybrid badge at the back, which the company hopes will mask the actual identity of this fully-electric test mule. Like hiding in plain sight. Internally, it is known as CR3 and it will be positioned on Stellantis’ STLA Medium platform.
      However, there are a few new elements on this particular test mule suggesting that it is indeed, a fully-electric offering and not a PHEV with a small battery. For starters, there is no exhaust at the back, something both C5 Aircross Hybrid and C5 Aircross PHEV have. Also, there is a giant battery protruding downwards from the floor.
      Citroen C5 Aircross EV Deceiving Hybrid Badge
      What can we expect?
      The 13.2 kWh battery in C5 Aircross PHEV does not protrude downwards like this. This battery unit seems to be stretching across the wheelbase, which was not the case in C5 Aircross PHEV. All these hints and the CEO of Stellantis confirming the development a year ago, suggest that the test mule in this spy shot is indeed, a fully-electric Citroen C5 Aircross EV.
      There won’t be a lot of visual changes between outgoing model and the upcoming C5 Aircross EV. It might be called Citroen e-C5 Aircross, upon launch. Interiors are likely to be carried over too. We can expect a large 86 kWh battery pack with up to 500 km of range on a single charge. Similar to Peugeot E-3008 and Opel Grandland Electric. This particular model is less likely to launch in India.

      Honda Activa Electric Launch Date Revealed Officially – Entirely New Platform

      by

      Image for illustration purpose.Activa EV could get a new name and make use of the Honda e:Swap battery swapping technology
      While Honda offers electric two-wheelers in select international markets, the brand is yet to start its EV journey in India. Honda has been working on a new electric scooter for India, but the project has been delayed by around 12 months.
      Honda Activa launch by March 2025
      Tsutsumu Otani, CEO, Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India Ltd., said that Honda Activa has retained the bestseller title for close to two decades. He said that the brand’s electric scooter launch for the Indian market has been delayed by around a year. However, details about what could have caused the delay has not been revealed. But Otani did confirm that Honda’s first electric scooter for India will be launched in March 2025. It is likely to be Activa Electric, although it could go on sale with a different name.
      Honda Activa Electric Scooter Teased
      Honda has been planning an electric two-wheeler for India for several years now. The earlier option was to do an ICE to EV conversion project on the existing Activa. However, that possibility was dismissed, as it did not satisfy Honda’s goal to produce a top-class electric two-wheeler. Honda decided to go with a new, born electric platform, which is exactly what is currently taking shape at the brand’s development centre.
      With a born-electric platform, Honda will be able to offer advanced features with its first electric scooter for India. Examples include connectivity features, touchscreen and keyless entry. Such features would have been challenging to integrate with the existing platform in use with ICE Activa. The new platform is expected to be lightweight, which will help achieve a higher range. A low-drag, aerodynamic design will also help boost range. It will also achieve a sportier profile for the scooter.
      2nd Honda Electric Scooter for India
      Honda e:Swap could be a gamechanger
      Similar to Activa, Honda electric scooter has potential to emerge a bestseller. While the brand’s strong credentials are already advantageous, Honda could improve the overall user experience with its e:Swap battery swapping technology.
      Honda e: Swap
      With the e:Swap system, users won’t have to worry about things like range anxiety or daily hassles like recharging the battery. If the battery is sold as an optional component, the starting price of the electric scooter can also be reduced significantly. With multiple benefits, Honda’s upcoming electric scooter can emerge as a runaway success.
      Honda e:Swap system is already operational in Bengaluru for commercial three-wheelers on a trial basis. It is being run as a joint venture between Honda and the Bangalore Metro Rail Corporation. Battery swapping for electric two-wheelers has already been deployed on a large scale in countries like Taiwan.
      The same can be copied for India, although there will be challenges. Taiwan-based Gogoro also has plans to set up battery swapping stations in India. Honda Activa EV could be launched at a starting price of around Rs 1 lakh. It will take on rivals such as Ather Rizta, Ola S1 X+, Bajaj Chetak, Hero Vida and TVS iQube.

      Hero Xoom 125R Spied Testing – Ntorq Rival Launch Soon?

      by

      Hero Xoom 125R SpiedRecently spied Hero Xoom 125R was showcased last year and looks like it is production-ready – Pricing might start around Rs 85K (Ex-sh)
      While we already have Xoom 110 on sale in India by Hero MotoCorp, the company is now expanding its sporty scooter portfolio with two new offerings. Called Xoom 125R and Xoom 160, these upcoming scooters were first showcased at EICMA in Milan, last year. Now, for the first time, Xoom 125R is spied testing in India. Let’s take a look.
      Hero Xoom 125R Spied Testing
      Late last year, Hero MotoCorp showcased two new sporty scooters under the Xoom range. While the larger Xoom 160 stole the show at EICMA, Xoom 125R was equally impressive. It boasts a much sharper design language than Xoom 110, still adhering to overall family genes and design DNA.
      Hero Xoom 125R Spied
      The recent spy shots show upcoming Xoom 125R from the rear. We can see a sporty scooter that is likely to make a bigger splash in the segment than Hero has ever managed to do. Genre-wise, Xoom 125R will rival the likes of TVS Ntorq 125, Suzuki Avenis 125, Honda Dio 125, Yamaha Ray ZR 125 and Aprilia SR 125.
      Interestingly, the rivalry is more suitable with Aprilia SR 125, as Ntorq 125, Avenis 125, Ray ZR 125 and Dio 125 still come equipped with 12-inch wheels or smaller. Xoom 125R is confirmed to get large 14-inch wheels, setting it apart in the crowd. We can see a significant overhaul in design and edginess over Xoom 110.
      Hero Xoom 125R
      Hero MotoCorp has played well with colours and finishes on Xoom 125R and it visually positions it above Xoom 110, being more premium. We can see LED projector headlights with a striking LED DRL signature. Rear LED tail lights are in split design and Hero is offering LED turn indicators at both ends.
      Rider ergonomics is likely to be more upright than rival scooters, suiting taller riders. Overall size lends a feeling of riding something much larger than a 125cc scooter. Practicality is improved with a larger floorboard, twin gloveboxes with USB charger, large under-seat storage with LED light and a large and accommodating seat.
      Hero Xoom 125 Unveiled
      What to expect?
      A few key specs of upcoming Hero Xoom 125R have been revealed. For starters, it will get the same 125cc engine as the new Destini 125 we just reviewed. Performance metrics are slightly different as Xoom 125R will generate 9.4 bhp of peak power at 7,500 RPM and 10.16 Nm of peak torque at 6,000 RPM.
      Instrumentation is fully digital and is similar to the one we saw in Xpulse and other Hero motorcycles. Bluetooth connectivity and notification alerts will be part of the package, along with turn-by-turn navigation. Another notable aspect is that Xoom 125R weighs 120 kg, while Ray ZR 125 weighs under 100 kg.
