The Upcoming Hyundai iX25 SUV Promises to be Compact and Cool!
The motor world is far from predictable. It manages to keep everyone guessing and anticipating. Which is why, motor enthusiasts have their ears pricked up for the faintest whiff of news. And that is how the winds of rumors and stories begin. One more amazing thing about the motor world is it is never out of variety. So, the moment we had started wondering what Hyundai will send our way, the company saved us the guesses. The company went ahead and officially announced, no, revealed the upcoming Hyundai iX25 SUV 2015. It is said that this piece of beauty, unveiled at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show, is going to be compact. It is a grand five-seater, packed with a 2-liter petrol engine. What’s more, it is going to hit the Chinese roads before the rest of the world. Needless to say, the country is extremely lucky to host this machine before any other country does. However, India too won’t be far behind in line. It has been heard that the Indian subcontinent gets to see this new Hyundai creation as soon as the next year!
While there aren’t many days to wait, considering many a car keep their fans waiting for years in a row, one can’t help but wonder who are going to be its contenders. Who are going to be set against the upcoming Hyundai iX25 SUV 2015, many experts are found wondering. The obvious answers are staring at us in the eyes – of course, the Ford Ecosport and Chevrolet Trax, the two contenders in the compact SUV segment! There are, in deed, a lot of similarities that these machines share. So, from engine to transmission, there are a lot of common traits. Some are also betting that the body too has been so designed that it can take reasonably easy handling. Design, however, there are speculations, has been taken from Hyundai Santa Fe. And that doesn’t disappoint, for who could say they mind the Storm Edge Design by Hyundai! We have already been bowled over by the Santa Fe and the Tucson and we definitely don’t mind repeating the experience.
We do know that China gets it first, however, India too is all prepared to greet the upcoming Hyundai iX25 SUV, that too in two variants. Yes, that is right. The super SUV is going to be available in both diesel and petrol variants. There are also some hints that point at the company planning to launch a sub four-meter version for the Indian roads. This move is well-strategized, considering it is going to gain from the excise discounts that are available here! Though the company might consider bringing the same model as launched in China but it won’t be so easy to put a reasonable price tag on the SUV.
One can’t deny that the company has not really had a prominent presence in the Compact SUV league. In every other category, it has presented great offerings. However, with the upcoming Hyundai iX25 SUV 2015, the company is likely to take a leap and a big one, at that!
The Upcoming Skoda SUV 2016 all Set to Sweep you of your Feet!
It is almost like a rage, a revolution in the motor world. How else could one explain every company venturing into creating SUVs. Very clearly, SUVs have emerged as the ‘in thing’. So, it is not really a biggie anymore if a new, amazing SUV is waiting to greet you every second day. There have been many shocking new entries in the SUV segment, of late. And if you follow the fascinating motor world, you would definitely agree that there have been many SUVs that have caught you by surprise. One such new kid on the block is the upcoming Skoda SUV 2016 which has pleasantly teased quite a few people who didn’t see it coming.
So, agreed that Skoda has not had a very glorious past in terms of SUV offering. As far as we remember, the only one it threw our way was the Yeti. And what a brilliant performer it is! Who can deny its success on a global level? It was beautifully received in most countries where, there was an insane demand for this smart and sporty machine. However, the results were different in the Indian subcontinent where, surprisingly, there weren’t many takers for this one. So not only are we hearing that the upcoming Skoda SUV 2016 is all set, we are also sure that the Skoda Yeti will get a facelift and come around to win our hearts! Chances are that this one too is going to fascinate its fans the world over and who knows, this time, it also catches the Indian fancy. You never know what kind of a reaction a vehicle is capable of getting! It is all very unpredictable which is what makes it so exciting too! Isn’t that the reason we are so glued on to updates from the motor world.
On that note, there are many stories doing rounds that Skoda is also planning to give us a seven-seater SUV. This one, we have heard, is going to be definitely a notch or two above the Yeti, our favorite Skoda SUV, so far! So, this means, the upcoming Skoda SUV 2016 is not the only offering! We have a machine that is going to be better than Yeti – sounds like wow! In addition we have also heard that it is going to be competing against Hyundai Santa Fe and probably, Honda CR-V! Now who would have foreseen this! However, all those who are discarding it as just rumor should know that this is definitely going to happen! We have heard about the preapproved plan that, too, by the top guys in the company. It has also been heard that the prototypes are going through the testing phase of Skoda SUV 2016.
If that has taken you aback, wait till you find out about Skoda’s sister company SEAT also planning to offer an SUV that will be on the same platform as Yeti! With the upcoming Skoda SUV 2016 and many more lined up after it, we see no escape but to wait and watch the SUV revolution. As always, remember, it is not official!
Uber Urban, Uber Cool – the Upcoming SUV Land Rover Landy
The year 2013 was brilliant for Land Rover. Yes, in every aspect you can think about. The company was lauded globally, its creations appreciated and sold like hot cakes. It seemed, people just couldn’t have enough of its creations! There was a wave of excitement among takers of Land Rover vehicles. While there were many who were fortunate enough to own some of the coveted creations by the company, there were others who could only afford to drool over them. Either way, the popularity of the brand skyrocketed in the past year and from what we can understand, it is about to shoot way, way up, thanks to Landy, the upcoming Land Rover SUV!
This is what we know so far! So, it was overall a hit show, across the world, mainly in Asian country of China. However, the company has decided to gear up and expand beyond the nextgen features that so many other contenders are offering. It is really very wise of the brand to foresee the expectations of the motor world and be prepared to strike at the right time, in the right manner. In the company’s drive to explore next level technology, we are going to get the urban delight – the upcoming Land Rover Landy. It is also said that the company is now going to dedicate more efforts on developing a hybrid Range Rover as well as an electric variant Land Rover Defender. These are the company’s obvious efforts to take on the many offerings in the market. Who could contest that nobel thought! After all, the motor world is abuzz with a lot of new stories every day. With the crack of every dawn there is a new technology staring us in the eye, it makes sense if the company is smart enough to strategize well in time, and be ready with inspiring innovations. Landy seems to be just one of the many beauties lined up from the company. We are sure there are many more swanky machines to come our way, in the coming years. For now, we stay hooked on to what the company is calling its ‘Urban SUV’!
If rumours are to be believed, and well, we will actually pay heed to them, for they turn out to be true, then the upcoming Land Rover Landy is going to be set against Evoque. It is going to get its style and aura from DC100 concept which seems promising, already. As for the quirky yet simple name, the company has decided to get it trademarked. News has it that they have applied for it, already! Once everything falls in place, the name is likely to be used for not just the vehicle but its accessories and dealership franchisee, too! Seems like Landy is truly going to paint the world in its colors, and literally so! This one is sure to give tough competition to Jeepster and Audi Q1. Quite understandably, we are having a tough time waiting for it to be launched.
Upcoming Vauxhall Astra VXR Extreme for Driving Pleasure!
Every kind of vehicle finds takers. So there are those who look out for Sedans and keep their eyes and ears open for the upcoming ones, lines up for a specific year. There are others who hold their breath for MUVs and wouldn’t miss them for anything in the world. Now imagine, a company so smart, it knows how to offer swanky sedans and extremely chic hatchbacks. Now imagine a whole new line of VXR machines that deliver extreme performance, not to mention the good looks they flaunt. If you have imagined all this, sure as heck, it won’t be too much for you to handle the upcoming SUV Vauxhall Astra that was unveiled at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show. It is power to the next level and you are sure to lose your senses to this one!
Though, there is no revelation or declaration from the company so far, there are many specifications that will help you imagine this passion machine. It bears a turbo engine which has the capacity of 2 litre. It generates power to the value of 300 bhp. Justifying why it was referred to as the passion machine, it is going to be the most fierce and powerful creation by Vauxhall, one with front wheel drive mechanism. There are many speculations regarding what could be the inspiration behind the upcoming Vauxhall Astra. Many experts’ first guess is Astra Cup racecar. It indeed is an ideal inspiration. Given that, one can’t help but picture a machine with the most unmatched performance and the most spectacular looks.
Like they always say, imagination will always be mightier than what’s there in front of our eyes, the upcoming Vauxhall Astra SUV has got the town talking. It is creating rounds of hushed details about this much-dreamt about machine. From what we have heard, carbon fibre has been used to structure its form. Which is why, it is quite understandable that it is 100 kg lighter as compared to the already out standard Vauxhall Astra VXR. The powerful engine comes with a 6-speed manual transmission gearbox. So, not only is this one going to fast, it is also going to be lean like how! One can see how beautifully this one has been strategized. The countless efforts gone into making this one special are definitely going to pay off, eventually. And the beginning seems phenomenal, already!
The exterior, we are guessing, is just a prelude. It is just the opening lines of a smashing story. In the case of the upcoming Vauxhall Astra SUV, one will find it difficult to decide whether it is the exteriors that are more mind blowing or the interiors. So, upon a sneak peek, we found out that the safety roll bar stays unmoved. It is still where the back seat ought to have been. There are recaro bucket seats to seat few lucky ones. And all this comes with 6-point safety seat belts. It is like this machine is just perfect the way it is. We won’t know till it sets out, though!
Upcoming Lincoln MKX is Ready to Rock our World!
There has never been any doubt about Lincoln’s intentions to amaze us with its creations. It has some very swanky creations to its name and the best part is they have all been a league apart from other vehicles in their category. Which is why when we got the golden opportunity to take a peek at the upcoming Lincoln’s MKX concept previews, we were more than just delighted! We can only imagine after feasting our eyes on the concept creation, what the real beauty will look like. Let’s know the Lincoln MKX concept better as we wait with a bated breath.
From what we have heard from reliable sources, the upcoming Lincoln MKX is going to elbow aside the contemporary midsize crossovers. If that is to be believed, chances are that it will stand against MKZ sedan and MKC concept of a compact crossover. In addition, trying to read between the lines, here, the fact that the company chose Beijing Auto Show to showcase its new creation says a lot about its future plans. It stresses on the fact that it has some mammoth planning to go really big in China. Why else their first choice would have been Beijing? There are contrary explanations floating in the motor world, though. Many people are of the view that it has nothing to do with any future plans and it could very well be a random choice. However, when a chic design like that is first unveiled in a city, one can’t just assume it is random and without any planning. As far as a word of confirmation or rejection from the company is concerned, we have got nothing. We might have to wait for the future to lift the question mark from this one!
Now let’s delve in more details of the Lincoln MKX, the upcoming SUV whose first look has got the town talking. While some are totally digging its vintage looks, others are calling it way too old fashioned for our generation! The front, to most people, looks very agreeable and we agree! The butterfly wing look for the frille is certainly an improvement that we don’t mind. Also, this beauty looks quite wide and the all-headlight chosen for it, make it look very agile and ready to take on the roads!
The change in the light system seems like a well-thought out move by the company, which has given this creation a new personality. It is like a magnificent blend of old-world beauty, donning some contemporary features! Upon a close look you will realize that the upcoming Lincoln MKX SUV bears a lower bumper, wielding a huge metal bar enveloping the air intakes. It, however, retains the classic Lincoln look – the hood! The hood stays unmoved, and we are thankful for that!
The upcoming Lincoln MKX, it has been remarked, looks particularly masculine when viewed from the side. Well, what can we say! It could be due to the 22-inch rim that graces this creation. Old-world beauty with a touch of masculinity, we are waiting to know how the world will greet you!

Oh, there is nothing like watching those fiery machines gear up before they hit the road. It is like a rush of adrenaline! So must say, Auto Show Season in Paris was quite the spectacle. It was everything you expect from an auto show or may be even more. And what really caught our eyes there was the fab upcoming Infiniti Q80 that is going to take the world of luxury sedans in its stride very soon. And we just can’t wait for it to happen soon enough!
This new beauty looks extremely promising. If looks could kill, consider us gone! The concept was totally out of our dreams. It clearly looks like it falls in the plush sedan segment more than any other! This looks like the company’s foray into this new segment, possibly.

Its design is the most breathtaking one you may have seen in the longest! Who could resist the forceful styling that comes into mark the brand’s departure from a conventional look!
So what, some experts exclaim! There are plenty fish in the sea, right now. Considering that every brand including Mercedes, Audi, Lexus and BMW, is bringing on their sedans, isn’t this like being part of the premium herd? From distance it might appear that the Upcoming Infiniti Q80 is just one of the many sedans that have inundated the market. However, it is going to definitely set a new trend despite being one of the many luxury sedans in town! In fact the concept machine has been labeled as the trailblazer in its category, one that is versatile, stylish and yet, chic. It is a style statement on wheels and hence, deserves to be called a machine meant for the future! While all of these might appear to be tall claims, the concept really did appear to be a looker, one that is guaranteed to draw a second look, for sure!
Want a peek at the reasons that have led up to the tall claims? Well, here they are. The upcoming Infiniti Q80 flaunts a neat shape. It is like a mirage so even though the fastback lends it a coupe look, the doors are strictly created in such a way that it looks like a sedan. The sturdy body is all aluminum and carbon composite, which promises that the body is going to be on the lighter side. We can already sense improved performance! Also consider the aerodynamic front grille bearing a chrome edge and you will find yourself appreciating this beauty, more and more. Set your eyes on the LED headlights and start praying for the spectacle to be launched already!
Watch out for the Feisty Fiat 500 X 2016!
Trying new things is always good and we agree. Same old look, same old engines, same old experience – ah, how long can it all hold attention and interest! Which is why there is a constant need for innovation, in thought and deed. To serve something that’s off-beat and well, if not off beat then at least in a different league! That is exactly why we welcome the news of Fiat 500 X 2016. Finally, the company’s older offering the classic 500L hatchback is going to get dropped. Since it didn’t catch anyone’s fancy, especially in the US, it is a wise decision to revamp the look and launch something that might strike the chord with people!
In the motor world, we are sure you would know, there is always some clue or the other about what companies are up to. It doesn’t matter how hush-hush they keep their plans and strategies, somehow the word escapes and tickles the world! Well, we can say that same has happened with the upcoming Fiat 500 X 2016. We have heard from many sources that it is going to be styled in an SUV fashion! This one didn’t come as a surprise, at all! After all, crossovers are the flavor of the season and every prominent company has attempted to do it, with some creation or the other. So, makes sense if Fiat is doing it too!
There are more and more stories that are coming our way from the Fiat world. And we are carefully listening and producing them here to answer your daily dose of motor news! Those who follow motor trends will definitely be able to tell hearsays from facts and decide what is worthy of being believed. So, leading on, chances are that the new Fiat 500 X 2016 is going to be cast against Jeep Renegade. So, it is only too understandable that this one is going to be powered with four gasoline engines. However, for the European continent, there is a chance that the variant will come in three diesel engines. Whether the upcoming Fiat 500 X 2016 will be able to take people’s breath away is a question that will be answered by time. However, all we can say is that there definitely seems something massive and heavy-duty in store for us.
We want to thank Fiat for such consideration and creation but wait, there is more!
So, what the company has not revealed as yet is the version it is going to launch in the U.S. Perhaps, after the dull response to the Fiat hatchback, it has decided to play safe and keep its future plans a secret just to build curiosity! Who knows! But, as things have turned out, the U.S. markets need to wait to find out what is going to come their way. Some experts, have pointed out that the upcoming Fiat 500 X 2016 specially crafted for the U.S. will probably come with the 170-hp, 1.4-liter turbocharged “MultiAir” four-cylinder and the 184-hp, 2.4-liter “Tigershark” four-cylinder. It is important to note that it is the same tigershark that comes with the Renegade, too!

He called it the avant-garde creation, which has stature and exudes flamboyance! Now who will deny that. For, indeed, this one is as loud as they come, only with a streak of undeniable pride! However, there are many people who sort of disagree with the flamboyant bit.
