Is Kawasaki preparing to reveal a Z900-based Versys soon?

-
Image
Kawasaki has teased a new four-cylinder tall and upright sport tourer on its UK social media handle, which we expect is to be the new Versys 900. The presence of a windscreen resembling the one on the Versys 650 and 1100 models and an inline-four cylinder soundtrack both reinforce our claim. 4-cyl motor sounds unstressed, not peaky and high-revving Bike shown tackling varied road conditions in teaser It has a tall adjustable windscreen, like 1100 and 650 Versys models Will a new Z900-based model supplement the Versys range soon? There are quite a few signs in the teaser which point to this fact There are some primary points to pay attention to on the teaser shared by Kawasaki UK. Firstly, the four-cylinder soundtrack immediately reminds one of the smooth and refined hum of the unstressed, torque-rich, big-bore 948cc four-pot motor on the Z900 complete with the exhaust pops as if a bidirectional quickshifter (a feature on the latest-gen Z900) is being used to shift between gears.

Tata Aeris petrol review: More desirable now?

-
Image
The Tata Aeris may be a new name, but its roots lie in the Tigor, which has enjoyed considerable popularity since 2017 for its distinctive styling, practical cabin, comfortable ride and decent powertrains. The Aeris builds on that foundation with a sharper design, a more upmarket cabin and an even more generous equipment list while retaining the same basic mechanical package underneath. Having already driven the iCNG version , we now get behind the wheel of the petrol Aeris to see how it fares as an everyday sedan. Tata Aeris petrol performance and refinement - 7/10 The petrol version has slightly better cruising capability than the CNG  3-cylinder engine is so-so on refinement and sounds coarse when revved hard. The Tata Aeris comes with a 1.2-litre 3-cylinder naturally aspirated engine that produces 86hp and 113Nm in its petrol guise and is offered with a choice between a 5-speed manual and a 5-speed automated manual transmission (AMT). The three-cylinder engine isn’t the smoot...

3 reasons to buy the Tata Aeris iCNG, 2 reasons not to

-
Image
The Tata Aeris was launched recently as a facelifted and reworked version of the Tigor, with a fresh and modern exterior look and a minimalistic interior brimming with features. The powertrain options, however, are the same as those of the Tigor. We recently drove the Aeris iCNG, and here are three reasons why you should consider buying it and two reasons that could deter you. Reasons to buy the Tata Aeris CNG Modern exterior design and well-equipped interior The Tata Aeris is clearly a step up from the Tigor and looks modern. It gets slim LED headlights with integrated LED daytime running lamps (DRLs) joined by a gloss-black trim, all of which give it a clean look. Some contrast is added via the front bumper, which features a black section around the wide air inlets. The new LED fog lamps and the clamshell bonnet also look good. In profile, the CNG variants’ 14-inch stylised steel wheels look undersized, particularly against the prominent wheel-arch cladding. Chrome elements on the...

Triumph Bonneville T40 vs rivals: Price and specifications compared

-
Image
It’s here, finally. Almost three years after the very first Triumph 400s debuted (Speed and Scrambler X), we have a Bonneville for the class, and it’s looking to redraw the boundaries for the retros. However, the 350cc class is silently one of the fiercest segments in India, with Royal Enfield leading it, predominantly with the Classic 350. We have Honda trying to eat away at that dominance with the CB350 and Jawa with its 350, but sales-wise at least, Royal Enfield has so far remained unassailable. Can the Hinckley-based manufacturer finally make its Indian-UK counterpart feel the heat? Let’s see. Triumph Bonneville T40 vs Rivals: Engine and output Triumph is off to a great start   Triumph Bonneville T40 Royal Enfield Classic 350 Honda CB350C Jawa 350 Engine 350cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled 349cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled 348.36cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled 334cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled Power 29hp at 7,000rpm 20.2hp at 6,100rpm 21hp at 5,500rpm 22.57hp at 7,000r...

Jaguar Type 01 revealed

-
Image
Grace, Space, Pace. That's been a long-held Jaguar maxim, clearly no more the case, though, at least not that first part. Jaguar's new Type 01 ditches grace for a design that's very much in your face, or, styled with exuberant modernism, as the brand more eloquently puts it. Yes, exuberant it most certainly is; the sheer size and presence of the car are unapologetically bold, and we knew this would be the case when we saw the Type 00 concept . At the time, Jaguar said it would greatly influence the actual production car. Love it or hate it, you have to applaud Jaguar for keeping a majority of the concept's far-out ideas to the point where a lot of time was spent engineering the new Jaguar Electric Architecture (JEA) to make the design possible.  Strike a chord The front is dominated by Jaguar's new 'strikethrough' design element, which gives the bluff nose some character. Unlike most EVs that have a blanked-off front, the strikethrough simulates a grille,...
