Ford has unveiled the seventh generation of the iconic American muscle car, the Mustang, in Detroit. Its exterior design has undergone an evolutionary change rather than a revolutionary one while packing a lot more tech into the cabin. Most importantly, it has arrived with zero dilution of the Mustang spirit because you can still find […]
Ford is one of the few brands whose performance vehicles truly embody the sentiment behind the phrase “no replacement for displacement”. It has taken the covers off of the highly anticipated F-150 Raptor R which features the same 5.2-litre supercharged V8 as the current-gen Mustang Shelby GT500. With a peak output of 700hp and 868Nm, […]
Usually, when old-school carmakers go electric, they’ll either start a new sub-brand or electrify one of their unexciting mass-market models. Ford did it a bit differently, starting their EV journey by making a sports SUV named after their iconic fuel-guzzling sports GT – the Mustang Mach-e. Next, they introduced an all-electric version of the iconic […]
We don’t often take an interest in new SUVs but every once in a while, there is one that is true to its classification and just so happens to have had a big impact in automotive history. The Ford Bronco ticks those boxes and this monicker has been brought forward to the present after being […]
Almost every generation of the iconic Ford Mustang muscle car gets a factory-tuned Shelby Performance version for those who want a thoroughbred experience on the open road.

Does a petrol head need a reason to love the physical manifestation of the wide open roads? The OG muscle car? The throaty roar of a big engine? The Ford Mustang? No. But until 2016, you couldn’t have one in right-hand-drive (i.e. markets like India), so now it’s a possibility worth considering. I was only […]
Ford has a very diverse range of vehicles that have been tinkered by the Ford Performance department to make them all a bit more exciting. Taking cars built for the average consumers and then offering a bonkers, fun-to-drive variant for those who want to have fun in a quick car without breaking the bank or […]
1) It’s all new and probably won’t come to India Based on a new platform called the C2 to build a recognizable yet completely new car to be badged as the next Ford Focus. It’s roomier, stronger and in most avatars, it is lighter than the older generation. 2) Familiar but fresh The new Focus […]
Two more years pass and it’s time for another Auto Expo in Delhi, which is kind of the Indian Auto Expo. For the most part, it was underwhelming and overall a bit disappointing as an experience for someone who attended it on a public access weekend. But there were some important elements at the Auto […]
It’s time for the first big auto show of 2018 and its the one in the USA – the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS)- in motor city itself, Detroit. While there were just a couple which we found interesting enough for a deeper story, it would be unfair to completely ignore the other fun […]
