All New Jaguar F-Pace

The F-Pace brings Jaguar’s  styling and athletic moves to a crowded market and ends up in a compelling place. Powertrains include a standard 340-hp or optional 380-hp supercharged V-6, each with an eight-speed automatic and all-wheel drive.Jaguar is roughly a decade late to the compact-luxury SUV segment, so it’s no wonder company officials sound a bit reluctant about this whole crossover movement. They want to keep steering the discussion of the company’s first SUV,the F

-Pace, back to its sporting credentials and its somewhat tenuous visual and mechanical—and nomenclatural!—connections to the F-type sports car.Jaguar, being part of Land Rover, has equipped the F-Pace with another clever system called All Surface Progress Control – it’s like a cruise control for off-road use, letting you navigate tricky inclines without using the accelerator or brake pedals. When the time comes to go back downhill, the system doubles as a hill descent control and gets the 1,800kg SUV safely back to the bottom with minimal driver inputs.
Jaguar F-Pace design
It’s the first SUV from Jaguar ever, but can the F-Pace put great road manners at the top of its priorities—and make itself what Jaguar calls its most useful sports car?
It all starts with styling. The F-Pace may have an awkward name, but there’s nothing awkward about the way it looks. It’s a handsome SUV that fits right in with the new XF and XE sedans.
The sleek sideview is pure crossover, but the details are pure Jaguar. The F-Pace has a tall mesh grille and signature LED lighting, (full-LED headlights are available)--it's all arranged on a taller plane.
Long vents pierce the front fenders, and the side windows are steeply tapered. At the back there’s a half-circle taillight that echoes the round light pipes on the XE and F-Type.

Jaguar's rotary drive controller rises from the center console, a chrome island surrounded by swaths of piano-black trim. Narrow strips of well-marked buttons run climate and traction controls. As finishing touches, the F-Pace wears polite amounts of aluminum and wood trim and ambient lighting.
The cockpit can come off stark and dark—lighter color choices look better, and wood does, too. The available houndstooth metal trim doesn’t read as well as the real grain or the stock piano-black plastic.
Touchscreens and digital displays factor in conspicuously. There's an 8.0-inch interface on base versions with a streamlined infotainment interface. A more capable system brings a 10-inch center screen with gesture control, and a 12.3-inch screen that replaces the twin-dial gauges with an adaptive display that can switch from "dials" to a full-screen navigation display.

April 6,2016: Tata Motors has officially announces the launching of its budget car.   " TIAGO" The Expected price of Tiago is 4 lakhs. The launch of this car will be a great achievement for Tata Motors.It is expected that this car will give a challenge to the cars like Maruti Suzuki Baleno,Renault KWID,Hyundai i10,and Hyundai Eon etc. Stand Out Features 1. 8-speaker sound system developed by Harman. Arguably the best in the segment. 2. Clever smartphone apps developed specifically for the Tiago: Turn by Turn Navigation and the Juke Car apps. 3. Multi-drive modes: the driver can switch between ‘Eco’ and ‘City’ to alter behavior and response of the engine. According to my opinion "Tata Tiago" will gain a great success in India. In my opinion Tata Motors will also launch this car in South Asian countries like Myanmar,Bhutan,Nepal etc.After achieving its desired goals in India and South Asian countries then Tat...

Toyota Supra 2023

Is that a Supra???????????????????.Exactly thats what we all hear from all of you cars fanatics. Well lets get started. The Toyota GR Supra has been conceived as a sports car in its purest form.the GR Supra offers similar build quality and simpler—but still handsome—interior materials inside. The entry-level 255-hp turbocharged four-cylinder provides ample power, but we can't help but adore the ferocious, optional 382-hp turbocharged 3.0-liter BMW inline-six that makes this two-seater fly. Rear-wheel drive is the only setup, and the GR Supra's sure-footed chassis and sharp steering enable it to come alive on twisty roads and race courses. Sure, it may borrow a little too heavily from the BMW parts bin for some Toyota fanboys, and its sweptback exterior design creates some awfully large blind spots but even so, the GR Supra remains one of our favorite sports cars. It’s a driver’s car and an enthusiast’s delight. What's New for 2023? Toyota, surely spurred by the outcries ove...
