The Bharat III-compliant 800cc engine felt decent in the city. The 12-valve engine provides 37 horsepower, which is sufficient for city driving conditions. The refinement is excellent, yet the 3 cylinder motor feels gruff when the foot is pushed all the way down. The motor isn't taxed until around 90kmph, but anything faster than that makes you want to let go of the throttle. Although the speedometer shows a top speed of 140 kmph and this is one of the few car that can actually go faster than the indicated top speed.
This car can only be described as 'nostalgia,' as most of us Indians will have some connection to it. This was a breath of fresh air for folks in their 60s and 70s who had only the Ambassador and Premier Padmini to choose from when purchasing their first automobile. This was the first pair of wheels for people in their 40s and 50s. In this car, young men and women in their twenties and thirties grew up and learned to drive. To cut a long storey short, this car was responsible for putting India on the road.
 Concept of the month
2024 BMW i8 M
The BMW i8 M is slated to make a comeback in 2024, with a PHEV powertrain producing 600 horsepower, just like M- powered automobiles, and a slew of BMW M Performance Parts on the interior and exterior. The i8 M will be distinguished from the model it will eventually replace by a significant increase in power, a longer all-electric driving range, new styling, and a more competent chassis.
 

The BMW i8 was a gorgeous car, and while it was not a huge hit with the public, the plug-in hybrid showcased all of BMW's strengths in terms of driving and style. The BMW i8 coupe and roadster, however, were withdrawn in 2020 after a few years on the market and the launch of an i8 roadster. The 2024 i8 M manages to improve on its predecessor's aesthetics and promises to be an even better automobile.
