EFECTO SPOTIFY CAMP NOU.

@Nandiniwhy Tesla is actually now competing with luxury EVs like the BMW iX1 LWB (₹ 10 lakh less), Volvo XC40 Recharge (₹ 10 lakh less), and Mercedes EQA (₹ 67 lakh) - all of which offer plusher cabins. The Model Y seems too expensive, especially without the Tesla fast-charging network.

[Nishmanya Bahadur @Nishmanya]

@Nandiniwhy Honestly, I think they've misjudged our market with this pricing. The Hyundai Ioniq 5 is about ₹ 14 lakh cheaper than the base Model Y, while the top-spec BYD Sealion 7 is ₹ 5 lakh less - both offer similar specs and more VFM.

@Nandiniwhy @News9Tweets @karanpradhan_ @itsmeFSL @electricfoo @MrAhmedSays Best of luck with all your future plans!!

Hey @livemint your story https://t.co/Y5Y1KxjcxP is a copy-paste ripoff of what I had written. I ordered the story, made editorial calls of what to talk about in each paragraph, and calculated the impact using https://t.co/Met3vty9MV. This kind of plagiarism is unexpected.

The #HyderabadaEPrix has come to a close. @JeanEricVergne put in a great stint to seal his victory (can be seen leading the pack in the final stages, in the video below).

I'm attending the @FIAFormulaE #HyderabadaEPrix. The qualifying session is well underway, with semis and finals rounds set to start soon!

The second-gen @ToyotaMotorCorp Mirai looks far sleeker than it's predecessor. The hydrogen fuel cell powertain has been improved and now offers a claimed range of over 650km per tank. The stunning Hydro Blue paint shade also deserves a special mention.

It was quite interesting seeing the massive MIFA 9 electric luxury MPV at @MGMotorIn pavillion at the #AutoExpo2023. It is nearly 6m long, has a 90kWh battery, a claimed range of 520km and extremely plush looking interiors. However, it'll probably not be launched in India.

Arguably one of the coolest concepts showcased at the #AutoExpo2023, the @Tatamotorsev #Sierra EV concept in the metal has plenty of presence and a unique look even in this 5-door guise.

[News9 @News9Tweets]

At #AutoExpo2023, Tata unveiled the five-door Sierra EV concept, which is expected to make it to production by 2024. Here’s a walk around the SUV with @Nishmanya

The @TataMotors #Altroz Racer along with these feature and design changes, also gets a more powerful 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine that makes 120hp and 170Nm (10hp and 30Nm more than the iTurbo variant) and comes paired to a 6-speed manual gearbox.

One of the big unveils at #2023AutoExpo Day 2 is the @Maruti_Corp Fronx hatchback.
Key takeaways are that it has heavily reworked interior styling and will get a sporty 100hp BoosterJet petrol engine. Platform and features are same as the Baleno. Bookings open at Nexa dealers.
