A panoramic sunroof is worth having in India only if it comes with a proper way to shut the sun out. That means a solid, powered sunshade, or switchable glass that can turn opaque. A big glass roof with no blind, or with a thin mesh screen, will heat the cabin and the heads of the people under it for much of the year in Delhi, Rajasthan, Hyderabad or Chennai. So before you fall for
A prepaid service package from Audi, Volvo, Lexus or Jaguar Land Rover can save you money, but none of these four brands publishes its current package prices online. The most recent public figures work out to about Rs 25,000 a year for Volvo’s three-year package (2021-22 price, plus taxes, wear parts included) and roughly Rs 45,000 to Rs 87,000 a year for Audi’s five-year plan, depending on the model (2018 price, before GST). Lexus and
The single most important thing to check on a used Lexus in India is the date it was first sold, because that decides how much factory warranty comes with it. Lexus cars sold before 2024 left the showroom with a 3-year, 100,000km vehicle warranty, which has almost certainly run out. Cars sold from 2024 carry 8 years and 160,000km, and Lexus says unexpired cover transfers to the next owner. The hybrid battery has its own
Lexus is the most reliable luxury car brand on every major survey available, and it is the only luxury brand in India that backs that record with an eight-year standard warranty. In J.D. Power’s 2026 Vehicle Dependability Study, Lexus recorded 151 problems per 100 vehicles (PP100), the best score of any brand, against an industry average of 204. Consumer Reports’ latest rankings put Lexus third overall and first among luxury brands. The German brands are
Ferrari delivered 13,640 cars in 2025, 112 fewer than the year before, and still grew its revenue by 7 percent to €7.15 billion. That one result sums up nearly 80 years of history. Ferrari began as a racing team, Scuderia Ferrari, founded by Enzo Ferrari in Modena in 1929. The first car to carry his name, the 125 S, followed in 1947. Ever since, Ferrari has treated racing as its reason to exist and road
The Volvo EX30 costs Rs 41.00 lakh ex-showroom and about Rs 43.67 lakh on-road in Delhi, which makes it the most affordable car you can buy from a European luxury brand in India today. It is quick, quiet, rides well, and has a 69kWh battery that Indian testers have found good for roughly 350km in real use. It is also a small car with a cramped rear seat and a cabin that hides almost every
Automobili Lamborghini was founded in May 1963 by Ferruccio Lamborghini, an industrialist who had made his money building tractors from wartime surplus and then heating and air-conditioning systems. In its first six decades the company invented the modern supercar with the Miura, shocked the world with the Countach, went through financial collapse and changed owners five times, before Audi bought it in 1998 and turned it into a stable business. In 2025 Lamborghini delivered a
A used Range Rover or Defender is only a bargain if you price it against what the same car costs new today, and in India that number has moved a lot. Local assembly cut the Range Rover by up to Rs 56 lakh and the Range Rover Sport by Rs 29 lakh in 2024, GST 2.0 took off up to Rs 30.4 lakh more across the range in September 2025, and the Defender may be
The Range Rover Velar costs Rs 81.00 lakh to Rs 87.50 lakh ex-showroom in India, and nine years after it was first revealed, it is still the most striking SUV you can buy for that money. It is quiet, comfortable and beautifully finished. It is also an old design with a fiddly touchscreen cabin, a replacement already on the way, and a reliability reputation you should go in clear-eyed about. Our advice: if you want
If you buy a new luxury EV in India, the wallbox itself is usually the cheap part: BMW, for example, includes an 11kW wallbox with its EVs. What actually costs time and money is everything around it. That means the cable run from your meter to your parking spot, the sanctioned load on your electricity connection, and, if you live in an apartment, getting your housing society to say yes. This guide covers all three,
