Arctic WRC: Tanak leads after Day 1 for Hyundai
Although it is one of Europe’s oldest rallies – with a roll of honour dating back to 1966 and featuring names such as Hannu Mikkola, Ari Vatanen, Henri Toivonen and Tommi Makinen – the Arctic Rally is making its debut on the WRC schedule. Lapland made a late substitution in place of the traditional Rally Sweden, which was originally scheduled for this weekend. The Swedish event was abandoned due to concern over the ongoing effects of the Coronavirus pandemic. One significant benefit from moving inside the Arctic Circle has been the guarantee of snow, after recent snow-free editions of the Swedish event. Even so, the temperatures for much of the day hovered just above freezing point and tyre management in such conditions became of paramount importance. The opening day consisted of two passes through one the longest stages of the event, the 31.05km Sarriojarvi test. The first pass was made in crystalline afternoon sunshine and the second in full darkness with spotlamp … [Read more...] about Arctic WRC: Tanak leads after Day 1 for Hyundai

Home Off beat oi-Rajkamal By Rajkamal Updated: Saturday, February 27, 2021, 4:25 [IST] The Indian automotive industry, along with other countries around the worlds is moving away from Internal Combustion (IC) engines. India is promoting the use of electric and hybrid vehicles to save the air. Although infrastructure for the use of such vehicles is at a nascent stage, an increasing number of new car buyers are considering electric vehicles. Hybrid vehicles are a good alternative too, but what is shying away customers is the prices post-GST, that have made hybrid vehicles expensive. But one company, nestled away in the industrial area of Bangalore, Whitefield, has come up with an ingenious solution to turn any vehicles to a hybrid one. Wait, what? Shalendra Gupta, Co-Founder & CFO, Altigreen Propulsion Labs That's right, Altigreen, a startup based in Bangalore has come up with something called the Hybrid Power … [Read more...] about Designed In India, Prototyped In India, Made in India — Shalendra Gupta, Co-Founder & CFO, Altigreen
2022 Ford Maverick: This Is How It Could Look
Our exclusive renderings show a smooth small truck with F-150 style. By now, it's certainly no secret that Ford is preparing a new compact pickup truck. Leaked images of the tailgate all but confirm it's called Maverick , and more leaked images of the body give us a strong taste of how it will look. We pulled all the leaks together to create a pair of Motor1.com exclusive renderings that should be pretty darned accurate to the forthcoming production version. We previously offered a Maverick rendering from the rear , highlighting the tailgate. This time around our focus is on the front, showcasing the big, bold grille and headlight design that was revealed in a leaked image from Ford's assembly plant in Hermosillo, Mexico. We offer two versions, one with a body-colored fascia and another with a black fascia. Ford's larger trucks generally have bold bumpers that stand out from the body, but the Maverick's unibody design might steer the small pickup in a different … [Read more...] about 2022 Ford Maverick: This Is How It Could Look
