Launched on 2 September 2024, the all-new Aston Martin Vanquish marks the triumphant return of the legendary nameplate, now reborn as the brand’s flagship grand tourer powered by a re-engineered twin-turbo V12 . Its heart is a 5.2-litre twin-turbo V12, pumped up to a breathtaking 835 hp (614 kW) and 1,000 Nm of torque, sent solely to the rear wheels through an 8-speed ZF automatic—launching the Vanquish from 0 to 100 km/h in a spine‑tingling 3.3 seconds and onto a top speed north of 345 km/h (214 mph) .

The Vanquish commands attention with its carbon-fibre body and long, muscular bonnet framed by matrix LED headlights, aggressive scoops, quad exhausts, vertically stacked taillights, and 21″ forged wheels wrapped in Pirelli P Zero rubber . Underneath, a bonded-aluminium chassis with a lengthened wheelbase, Bilstein DTX dampers, active aero, and carbon-ceramic brakes (410 mm front/360 mm rear) ensure both sumptuous ride comfort and razor-sharp handling—consistent with Aston’s newfound performance-driven ethos .

Inside is the height of GT luxury: two integrated 10.25″ digital screens for instrumentation and infotainment, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, premium materials including semi-aniline leather, faux-suede, and optional cashmere headliner, plus 16-way heated and ventilated seats . A 15-speaker Bowers & Wilkins sound system fills the cabin—along with thoughtful touches like a panoramic glass roof, wireless charging, and tailored luggage options .

Safety and tech are equally advanced, featuring adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, traffic sign recognition, front/rear collision warning, full ADAS suite, electronic stability control, and carbon-fibre brakes lending a commanding sense of confidence .

Globally limited to just under 1,000 units annually, the Vanquish officially launched in India on 22 March 2025, priced between ₹5.5–6.0 crore ex-showroom, and rumored to land around ₹8.5 crore on‑road in metros .

From its carbon-fibre artistry and roaring V12, to its blend of supercar performance and grand‑tourer comfort, the 2024 Aston Martin Vanquish reasserts itself as the ultimate expression of British automotive royalty—rare, resolute, and utterly ruthless.

Launched globally in May 2024, the facelifted Kia EV6 marks a bold evolution of Kia’s first dedicated electric vehicle, transitioning into the 2025 model with a host of design, tech, and performance upgrades . At its heart lies an upgraded 84 kWh battery, replacing the old 77.4 kWh pack, paired with Kia’s cutting-edge 800 V E‑GMP architecture, enabling rapid charging—bringing the battery from 10% to 80% in just 18 minutes on a 350 kW charger .

Buyers can choose between two powertrain options: the RWD long‑range variant with a single motor delivering 225 hp and 350 Nm, offering up to 494 km on a full charge; or the spirited AWD GT‑Line, boasting dual motors producing 325 hp and 605 Nm, accelerating from 0–100 km/h in a brisk 5.2 seconds with a real-world range of around 650 km WLTP . An upcoming high-performance GT variant is expected to push power north of 576 hp for supercar-like acceleration .

On the outside, the facelift enhances the EV6’s sleek coupe-inspired stance with refreshed triangular LED DRLs, a revised lower grille, sharper front bumpers, new 19–21″ alloy designs, and blacked-out side cladding on GT-Line trims . Inside, the minimalist, curved twin 12.3″ display now integrates a host of driver amenities: fingerprint authentication, augmented‑reality navigation, digital rearview mirror, head‑up display, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, and elegant ambient lighting—all underpinned by Kia Connect 2.0’s OTA update capabilities .

Driver confidence and safety are ensured through Level 2 ADAS, including adaptive cruise with lane-centering, forward/rear/side collision avoidance, blind-spot and reverse parking assist, backed by a multi-airbag system (10 globally, 8 in India) and 360° camera support .

Practicality remains a strong suit: the EV6’s 4,695 mm length, 2,900 mm wheelbase, 520 L boot, and 58 L frunk (in RWD variants) make it a capable daily partner . Enhanced ride comfort comes from retuned steering, refined suspension, and improved soundproofing—ideal for long journeys .

In India, the updated GT‑Line AWD was unveiled in March 2025 at ₹65.9 lakh ex-showroom, representing Kia’s highest-value EV yet . From city drives to cross-country touring, the 2025 Kia EV6 blends style, swift charging, intelligent tech, and eco-friendly innovation—setting an exciting benchmark in electric mobility.

Launched on August 16, 2024, the Lamborghini Temerario marks a bold new era as the Huracán’s spiritual successor and the second HPEV (High‑Performance Electrified Vehicle) in the Sant’Agata lineup . Boasting a twin‑turbo 4.0‑liter V8—capable of revving to a breathtaking 10,000 rpm and producing 789 hp and 538 lb‑ft of torque—allied with three electric motors, it delivers a jaw‑dropping 907 hp and 590 lb‑ft, with top speeds soaring past 340 km/h (212 mph) and a lightning-fast 0–100 km/h dash in just 2.7 seconds .

Encased in a full‑aluminum chassis, this mid‑engine wedge retains that classic Lamborghini silhouette with aggressive hexagonal LED DRLs and taillights, a floating wing, and an exposed-engine window, enhancing aerodynamic efficiency and generating significantly more downforce than its predecessor . Track‑ready, the available Alleggerita pack shaves roughly 25 kg, ups total downforce by ~62–67 %, and equips carbon‑fiber wheels—perfect for performance purists .

Inside, the Temerario offers a driver‑focused cockpit inspired by fighter jets, with enhanced headroom and legroom over the Huracán, making it accommodating for taller drivers—even with helmets on . A trio of screens—a 12.3″ digital gauge cluster, an 8.4″ vertical infotainment display, and a 9.1″ passenger monitor—come standard, complemented by wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, Sonus Faber audio, a dashcam, telemetry, and the advanced Lamborghini Vision Unit (LAVU) with AR navigation .

Every aspect of its hybrid powertrain is engineered for performance: two electric motors on the front axle provide torque‑vectoring and EV‑only traction, while a third motor—integrated into the gearbox—fills torque gaps, smooths shifts, and mitigates turbo lag . Drivers can tailor their experience via nine “Experiences” and three energy modes, spanning from quiet city driving to hardcore Corsa/Drift settings.

Braking is managed by massive carbon‑ceramic discs (410 mm front, 390 mm rear) with 10‑ and 4‑piston calipers, stopping the car from 100 km/h in just 32 m . Lightweight engineering and a low‑slung body impart razor‑sharp handling, while adaptive ESC and advanced stability systems ensure precision at speed .

From its August 2024 debut through 2025 production, the Lamborghini Temerario isn’t just a new model—it’s a technological tour de force: a 907‑hp hybrid, 10,000‑rpm V8, tri‑motor AWD, and Lamborghini’s fiercest soundtrack yet—designed for those demanding exotic performance with uncompromising style.
