The Audi Q7, now in its second facelift, strives to stay relevant in a segment where rivals like the GLS and X7 have leaped ahead. On the outside, changes include sharper Matrix LED headlamps, a redesigned grille with chrome inserts, and Q8-inspired bumpers. While these tweaks enhance its appeal, the overall design remains largely the same.

Step inside, and you’ll find a cabin that’s rich in materials but not particularly modern. Audi sticks to its tried-and-tested dashboard layout, now paired with an upgraded instrument cluster and Lane Change Assist. However, key features like wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto and ventilated seats are still missing. Practical touches like a spacious boot and electrically folding third-row seats add to its family-friendly vibe.

Under the hood is the trusty 3.0L V6 petrol engine making 335 HP and 500 Nm. The Q7 impresses with its creamy performance and composed dynamics. Audi’s 48V mild-hybrid system adds efficiency, but thankfully, it doesn’t interfere with the SUV’s smooth driving experience. Despite its dated platform, the Q7 still offers a solid driving feel and excellent ride quality.

At ₹1.06-1.16 Cr (on-road, Mumbai), the Q7 undercuts its immediate rivals like the GLS and X7 by ₹35-40 lakh, positioning it closer to the GLE and X5. For those seeking a luxurious yet comfortable cruiser, the Q7 remains a compelling choice.

Mahindra’s Official Statement on BE 6e Trademark

🚙 Mahindra BE 6e and XEV 9e revealed on November 26, 2024, under Mahindra’s “Born Electric” platform.

💼 Trademark for “BE 6e” applied under Class 12 (vehicles).

⚡ Concerns raised by IndiGo regarding similarity to their “6E” mark.
• Mahindra clarifies: “BE 6e” ≠ IndiGo’s “6E.”
• Different industry & product (electric SUVs vs. airline).

📌 Noteworthy: IndiGo itself faced objections from Tata Motors over the name “IndiGo” (similar to Tata Indigo).

🤝 Mahindra urges Indian companies to support growth rather than engage in conflicts.

🔄 Decision: Renaming the product BE 6 to avoid distraction but will contest IndiGo’s claim to prevent monopolization of alphanumeric names.

🚨 BMW M5 Hybrid Launched in India 🚨

BMW has introduced the seventh-gen M5 Hybrid in India at ₹1.99 crore (ex-showroom), and it’s a proper beast! 💥 Powered by a 4.4L V8 engine paired with an electric motor, this super sedan churns out 727 hp & 1000 Nm of torque, rocketing from 0–100 km/h in just 3.5 seconds.

Now, here’s the twist. 🌀 Mercedes recently launched the C63S E-Performance for ₹1.95 crore. But while the M5 gets a V8, the C63S only packs a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine, despite being priced nearly the same. 😮 The M5 delivers 4 more cylinders, higher performance, and a whole lot more presence, making it the better value-for-money choice.

The M5 Hybrid offers the best of both worlds: a roaring V8 with 585 hp and an electric motor adding 197 hp. It also gets an all-electric range of 69 km, making it future-ready without sacrificing excitement. BMW’s M xDrive AWD, adaptive suspension, and hybrid tech ensure it’s just as thrilling on the road as it is on the track. 🏁

Step inside, and you’re greeted by a luxurious cabin with M multifunction seats, a BMW Curved Display, and a Bowers & Wilkins sound system. Plus, features like the Reversing Assistant and advanced safety tech make it practical too.

In a world of downsizing (looking at you, AMG 👀), BMW’s commitment to the V8 keeps the M5’s soul alive. If you want performance, luxury, and heritage in one package, the M5 Hybrid is the ultimate super sedan! 💯
