  Mercedes-Benz E 350d AMG Line Review: Polished Executive Luxury New powerful engine, new looks and a tweaked interior for the 2021 E-Class. Do these changes equate to a whole new experience? Gallery The  E-Class  story dates back to the W124 and 1995, when the first three-pointed star was made in India. This model was later called the E-Class and till today it’s still the most important model in the  Mercedes-Benz  India lineup, accounting for a third of their sales. The 2021 edition sees some cosmetic tweaks as well as some tech additions and creature comforts. The lineup will consist of two diesel engines and one petrol engine, and the car we had on test is the range topping E 350d AMG line diesel.

        ALL NEW THAR FIRST DRIVE / REVIEW 2020 Mahindra Thar review, test drive BY {AUTOMOBLAND.BLOGSPOT.COM} The Mahindra Thar is an SUV that evokes emotions like few other cars can, embodying the spirit of the original Jeep and the 75-year-old legacy of India’s original SUV maker. This iconic SUV with its legendary 4x4 capability also embodies the freedom of (and off) the road, so it was rather appropriate that the reborn Thar was shown to the world for the first time on Independence Day. The New Thar is a modern interpretation of the previous model, with wider and squatter proportions. Evolution or Revolution?
