War Of Cars

The Audi R8 in its latest avatar looks sharper, is quick and loud, handles well and comes with an excellent new gearbox. It’s got all the elements you look for in a no-nonsense, everyday supercar that’s extremely civilised both on and off the track. But Audi wasn’t content with just that, so it has raised the bar further with the launch of a more powerful and lightweight version of the R8, the V10 Plus. The Plus variant you see here may not stand out from the ‘regular’ V10, at first. But a closer inspection reveals all the carbon fibre parts used inside out. Power comes via the Lamborghini-sourced 5.2-litre V10 FSI motor, which now revs all the way up to 8700rpm and churns out max power of 542bhp and 540Nm of torque – that’s 24bhp and 10Nm more than the older V10 variant. And to unleash those horses, we had the entire Buddh International Circuit to ourselves – a perfect setting since this particular Audi is more than a fast, everyday supercar that’s also good on the track. Instead, it...

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 w onder 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 ca lled 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 get...
