<p>Audi has unveiled the new AUDI E SUV concept at the Guangzhou Auto Show. This is the second model from the AUDI sub-brand made for China. The concept previews the upcoming AUDI E8 SUV that will enter production in early 2026. Audi is expanding its electric vehicle plans in China with support from its partnerships with FAW and SAIC. </p><p>The company introduced five models in China in the second half of 2025 and plans more launches in 2026. The <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/audi/">AUDI </a>sub-brand has also seen strong demand, with the E5 Sportback crossing 10,000 preorders within thirty minutes of its reveal. The new concept shows Audi’s plan to grow its EV line-up while it continues selling combustion vehicles during the shift to electric mobility.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/audi-q3-q5-signature-line-launched-in-india-prices-start-at-rs-5231-lakh-122126/">Audi Q3, Q5 Signature Line Launched in India; Prices Start at Rs 52.31 Lakh</a></p><p>The AUDI E SUV concept follows the same design theme as the E5 Sportback, using wraparound lights, flush door handles, and cameras instead of mirrors. It also gets wide fenders, a large front logo, and a fin-style C-pillar. The SUV measures 5,057mm in length, 2,042mm in width, and 1,786mm in height, along with a wheelbase of 3,060mm. Audi positions it among premium SUVs in China with a focus on space and flexibility.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/11/2025-Audi-E-SUV-Concept-Side-1763958311605.webp" alt="2025 Audi E SUV Concept Side.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>Power comes from a dual-motor setup that makes 671bhp and works with Audi’s quattro all-wheel-drive system. The concept can go from 0 to 100km/h in around five seconds. A 109kWh battery with an 800-volt system delivers a claimed range of more than 700km on the CLTC cycle. A ten-minute stop at a high-power DC charger can recover about 320km of driving range.</p><p>

It supports highway driving, city driving and assisted parking. Inside, the layout is expected to follow the E5 Sportback design with a 27-inch 4K display across the dashboard. Digital rear-view cameras and a lidar unit above the windscreen support safety and driver-assist functions.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/industry-news/audi-india-posts-3197-sales-till-september-2025-pre-owned-division-up-5-per-cent-121888/">Audi India Posts 3,197 Sales Till September 2025, Pre-Owned Division Up 5 Per Cent</a></p><p>Audi’s strategy in China focuses on stronger localisation and faster EV growth.

<p>autoX has lifted the curtains on the ‘Best of 2025’ winners, each put through two gruelling days of intense testing at the Buddh International Circuit (BIC).&nbsp;A panel of seasoned experts, including our very own autoX Editor-in-Chief Dhruv Behl, evaluated every vehicle for performance, handling, comfort, design, drivetrain efficiency, practicality, and value for money. They also&nbsp;assessed the X-factor and recorded lap times to gauge both real-world and track performance. To ensure fairness, all jury scores were averaged, while the BIC pushed each machine&nbsp;to its limits, revealing strengths and weaknesses alike. In the end, ten winners emerged:&nbsp;eight vehicles earned the prestigious ‘Best of 2025’ title, while two record-breaking performers were crowned Performance Car of the Year and Performance Bike of the Year.&nbsp;Let’s take a closer look at our ‘Best of 2025’.</p><h2>Who Chooses the 'Best of 2025'?</h2><p>The autoX Awards 2025 follow a simple and clear testing process. A team of road testers with over 100 years of combined experience scores each vehicle across key parameters. All scores are then averaged, which keeps the results fair and transparent.</p><p>For performance runs, autox Editor-in-Chief and part-time racer Dhruv Behl records lap times for cars. Two-time JK 1,000cc champion Simranjeet Singh, aka Simran King, handles the lap times for motorcycles.</p><p>The 2025 car jury comprises Dhruv Behl (Editor-in-Chief), Ishan Raghava (Consulting Editor), Shivank Bhatt (Assistant Editor), Siddharth (Special Correspondent), Karan Mathur (Multimedia Producer), Kingshuk Dutta (Features Editor), Aakash S Paul (Special Correspondent) and Ashish Jha (Jury Member). The motorcycle jury features Shivank Bhatt (Assistant Editor), Karan Mathur (Multimedia Producer), Kingshuk Dutta (Features Editor), and Aakash S Paul (Special Correspondent).</p><h2>The Testing Ground</h2><p>This year’s mega-test happened at the Buddh International Circuit, a track the team knows well. With 50 vehicles lined up, the testing is focused on the 2.0-kilometre technical loop at the back of the circuit. This section avoids the long straights, where high-power machines would have an edge, and helps keep the field level.</p><h2>autoX Awards Best of 2025 Winners:</h2><p>Here are the ones that made the cut this year. These are the Best of 2024!</p><h2>Winners for autoX Awards Best of 2025: Performance</h2><h2>Audi RS Q8 Performance (Total Points: 62.5)</h2><p>

On the track, it went all out, beating strong rivals like the Aston Martin DBX 707, BMW M5, Mercedes-AMG CLE 53, and Porsche Macan Turbo EV with a stunning lap time of 1:02.8.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/track-test/audi-rs-q8-performance-performance-car-of-the-year---autox-awards-2025-122157/">Audi RS Q8 Performance: Performance Car of the Year - autoX Awards 2025</a></p><p>The RS Q8 Performance draws its incredible speed from a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 that pumps out 631bhp and 850Nm. With power sent to all four wheels through an 8-speed automatic gearbox and Audi’s iconic quattro system, the luxury SUV sprints from 0–100km/h in 3.6 seconds and hits a top speed of 305km/h.</p><h2>Ducati Panigale V4 S (Total Points: 71)</h2>
    
      
    <p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/11/Ducati-Panigale-V4-S-1762924116392.webp" alt="Ducati Panigale V4 S.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>The Panigale V4 S packs a 1,103cc V4 that makes about 216bhp and 120.9Nm, and it delivers that power in a clean, predictable way. The updated electronics — including traction, wheelie and engine-brake control — make it easier to push hard, while the lighter frame, new symmetrical swing-arm and updated Ohlins suspension help it stay stable on the brakes and quick out of corners.</p><p>Ducati has given the bike sharper bodywork, slimmer winglets and a look that still nods to the iconic 916. The new hollow swing-arm and lighter frame also improve the stance. Ducati has tucked the foot-rests in by 10mm to help with lean angle on track. The Panigale V4 S is a ‘Best of 2025’ winner not just because it’s fast, but because it sets a new benchmark.</p><h2>autoX Awards Best of 2025 Winners:</h2><p>Here are the ones that made the cut this year. These are the Best of 2025!  </p><h2>Mahindra XEV 9e (Total Points: 59.7)</h2><p>
      
    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/11/Mahindra-XEV-9e-1762928246434.webp" alt="Mahindra XEV 9e.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>Built on Mahindra’s dedicated INGLO platform, the XEV 9e is India’s next-generation electric SUV and one of the standout entries in our Best of 2025. Designed from the ground up, it delivers refinement, stability, and a fresh, sophisticated driving experience.&nbsp;The model we tested packs a 79kWh battery and a rear-mounted motor producing 282bhp and 380Nm. Mahindra claims a 0–100km/h time of&nbsp;6.8 seconds, and while it’s not a hardcore performance SUV, its power is smooth and progressive. On the Buddh International Circuit’s short loop, it posted a 1:13.9 lap, just a second behind the Creta EV, highlighting both its weight and the impressive poise of its chassis.</p><h2>Maruti Suzuki Victoris (Total Points: 60.2)</h2><p>
      
    
      
    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/11/Maruti-Suzuki-Victoris-1762928518799.webp" alt="Maruti Suzuki Victoris.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>The newly launched Victoris is one of our Best of 2025 picks, shining out with an eye-catching design that breaks from Maruti Suzuki’s past. Its sleek front, sharply sculpted rear, sloping roof, and full-width taillight give it instant road presence. On the track, the TECT platform proved its mettle. With 102bhp and 139Nm of performance figures,&nbsp;the Victoris feels confident, well-planted, and surprisingly capable, hinting at a chassis that could handle even more power.</p><h2>Skoda Kylaq (Total Points: 61)</h2><p>
      
    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/11/Skoda-Kylaq-1762928815831.webp" alt="Skoda Kylaq.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>The Skoda Kylaq, the brand’s first sub-4m SUV, secures its spot in our Best of 2025. Its 1.0-litre TSI petrol engine delivers 114bhp and 178Nm, paired with a smooth six-speed manual or automatic. Outside, the Kylaq impresses with&nbsp;a signature grille, clean proportions, and smart design touches, while inside, it exudes clean lines, symmetry,&nbsp;and meticulous attention to detail.</p><h2>Mercedes-Benz E-Class LWB (Total Points: 61.4)</h2><p>
      
    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/11/Mercedes-Benz-E-Class-LWB-1762929161550.webp" alt="Mercedes-Benz E-Class LWB.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>Another highlight in our Best of 2025 is the Mercedes-Benz E-Class LWB, which turned the track into its showcase with a 1:10.1 lap at BIC. That’s&nbsp;extraordinary for a luxury sedan, faster than many sports coupes and hot EVs. Beneath its elegant exterior, a 3.0-litre inline-six turbo with a 48V mild-hybrid system produces 381bhp&nbsp;and 500Nm, propelling it from 0–100 km/h in 4.5 seconds.</p><h2>Volkswagen Golf GTI (Total Points: 62.7)</h2><p>
      
    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/11/Volkswagen-Golf-GTI-1762929343019.webp" alt="Volkswagen Golf GTI.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>Another star of our Best of 2025 is the Volkswagen Golf GTI, a true benchmark for hot hatches. With a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine producing 261bhp and 370Nm, it rockets to 267km/h effortlessly while comfortably seating four adults. On the track, the GTI delivered pure exhilaration.</p><p>Its razor-sharp handling, precise cornering, and forgiving chassis let you push the limits while staying completely in control. Every lap at the Buddh International Circuit left our jury impressed.&nbsp;And that’s the beauty of the Golf GTI. It’s everything you could ever want in a car.</p><h2>TVS NTorq 150&nbsp;(Total Points: 72.3)</h2><p>
      
    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/11/TVS-NTorq-150-1762924908134.webp" alt="TVS NTorq 150.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>The TVS NTorq 150 runs a 149.7cc engine and topped the two-wheeler list at the autoX Awards 2025. It impressed on the Buddh International Circuit test loop with its mix of strong performance, confident handling and solid braking. The scooter delivered consistent results across all track metrics, which helped it secure the top honour in the two-wheeler category.</p><p>The NTorq 150 stood out for its design, features and overall value. Its styling, tech and ride-modes added to its appeal, making it a complete package. The judges rated it highly for practicality and the kind of everyday usability that gives it an extra “X-factor” in a crowded segment.</p><h2>Honda CB 125 Hornet&nbsp;(Total Points: 70.2)</h2><p>
      
    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/11/Honda-CB-125-Hornet-1762924700398.webp" alt="Honda CB 125 Hornet.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>The Honda CB 125 Hornet features a 123.94 cc single-cylinder engine producing 11bhp at 7,500 rpm and 11.2Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm. The bike achieved a 0-60 km/h time of about 5.4 seconds. With its smooth mid-range performance, crisp gearshifts and planted chassis, it handled the test track with composure and agility.</p><p>From its twin-LED headlamp with DRLs to golden upside-down front forks, the Hornet’s styling draws cues from higher-cc siblings and gives it a bold look. It includes a 4.2-inch TFT instrument display with Bluetooth connectivity, muscular tank extensions and full-LED lighting. The blend of sporty ergonomics and segment-first hardware makes its visual and functional appeal strong.</p><h2>Honda CB 125 Hornet&nbsp;(Total Points: 69.7)</h2>
    
      
    <p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/11/Royal-Enfield-Classic-650-Motion-1762924383682.webp" alt="Royal Enfield Classic 650-Motion.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>The Royal Enfield Classic 650 uses a 648 cc parallel-twin engine paired with a six-speed gearbox, delivering refined power and smooth responsiveness. It was praised in the autoX Awards 2025 for how this powertrain works across city and highway riding, making it a strong contender in its segment. </p><p>The Classic 650 combines retro styling with modern execution—featuring a long wheelbase, classic tank graphics and minimalist instrumentation.</p>

autoX Awards 2025 Winners Announced: Audi, Ducati, Maruti Suzuki and More Bag Top Honours

autoX Awards 2025: The winners are here! Over 50 top cars and bikes battled at Buddh International Circuit for the coveted 'Best of 2025.'

<p>
It’s a strange, strange world out there. Politicians are doing comedy, comedians are doing politics, Trump wants a Nobel Peace Prize, and SUVs are beating sports cars around racetracks. Take the Audi RS Q8 Performance, for instance – a full-blown luxury SUV turned all the way up to eleven to keep the boy racer in every family man alive.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://youtu.be/OJ2oVUvSrzQ?si=C8gkOTr5aw1_0WYL">2024 Audi Q8 Facelift First Drive Review | Have These Changes Made The SUV Better? | autoX</a></p>

<p>It’s the most powerful ICE car ever to come out of Ingolstadt, and since it wears the RS badge, it obviously goes like stink. Need proof? It currently holds the Nürburgring Nordschleife record for the fastest production SUV, with a lap time of 7:36.7 – faster than some of your bedroom-poster icons like the Lexus LFA, Ferrari 430 Scuderia, and Lamborghini Murciélago SV.</p><p>With a resume that strong, we expected the RS Q8 Performance to be among the fastest cars in our test. What we didn’t expect was for it to absolutely annihilate the competition, which included the Aston Martin DBX 707, BMW M5, Mercedes-AMG CLE 53, and Porsche Macan Turbo EV. With a staggering lap time of 1:02.8, the RS Q8 Performance is our ‘Performance Car of the Year 2025’.</p>

      
    
      
    


<p>The RS Q8 Performance’s recipe for speed starts with its impeccable 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, which produces 631bhp and 850Nm of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic and Audi’s legendary quattro system. The result? A 0 – 100km/h time of 3.6 seconds and a top speed of 305km/h – those are supercar numbers, period.</p>

<p>What truly boggles the mind, though, is its handling. Thanks to the immense grip provided by its chassis, AWD system, and sport differential, the RS Q8 Performance behaves more like a surgical tool than a sledgehammer on the track. The steering is quick and precise, and that massive grille can sniff out apexes like a bloodhound. The whole experience is thrilling but never intimidating. You can stand on the throttle through most corners, and it won’t bite. The AWD system helps rotate the rear mid-corner, allowing you to flirt with four-wheel drifts like a rally car before catapulting you out of bends with incredible traction. All the while, the V8 roars with a wicked, muscle-car soundtrack that adds drama to the whole experience. It’s almost laughable how sharp and fast this high-riding family SUV is on the racetrack.</p><p>
      <br></p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

      </div><p>
    As a luxury car, the RS Q8 Performance impresses just as much. The cabin is exquisitely built, laden with features, and tastefully garnished with RS-specific touches. The space inside is generous for family and friends, and with a simple press of the Drive Select button, it transforms from a track monster into a subdued luxury car.</p>

<p>What further seals the deal is that it’s mechanically identical to the Lamborghini Urus Performante. Sure, it may not have the Italian’s flash or flamboyance, but when it comes to delivering a supercar-like experience in a family SUV body, it’s every bit as capable, if not better. And the best part? It costs only half as much. Makes you wonder why anybody would want an Urus over the RS Q8 Performance, doesn’t it? But, then, for better or worse, that’s the new world order.

Audi RS Q8 Performance: Performance Car of the Year - autoX Awards 2025

The Audi RS Q8 Performance is the most powerful ICE car ever to come out of Ingolstadt, and since it wears the RS badge, it obviously goes like stink.

<p>Audi is set to announce more details of its Formula 1 project on 12 November as the German marque prepares for its official entry into the championship in 2026. The announcement will mark a major step in its plan to join the grid under the upcoming technical regulations. A teaser image shared by Audi showed a black-and-white concept design, giving an early look at the visual direction for its first Formula 1 car. The event will likely confirm Audi’s operational framework, outline its development targets, and explain how it plans to position itself against established teams before the 2026 season.</p>

<p>Audi will use the event to confirm the full acquisition of the Sauber F1 team, completing the transition of the Swiss outfit into a works operation under the Audi name. This move completes the process that began in 2022 when Audi announced its Formula 1 plans. The structure will link Audi’s power unit project with Sauber’s chassis and race team operations, allowing both divisions to work as one unit. Sauber’s Hinwil base will handle car assembly and race operations, while Audi’s Neuburg site in Germany will continue as the centre for engine and hybrid system development.</p>
<p>Audi has confirmed its 2026 driver lineup. Gabriele Bortoleto and Nicola Hulkenberg will race for the team in its first season. The management group will be led by Jonathan Wheatley, who will report to CEO Mattia Binotto. The event on 12 November is also expected to reveal the team’s colour scheme and livery, giving the first full view of Audi’s appearance on the grid next season. These updates will set the direction for Audi’s factory entry and its long-term Formula 1 plan.</p>

The Audi Q3 Signature Line and Q5 Signature Line keep the same petrol engines with no mechanical changes, as both SUVs continue with the existing 2.0-litre units.

<p>Audi India reported sales of 3,197 cars between January and September 2025, indicating steady movement in the luxury car market despite a changing economic environment. The company has maintained its network expansion and product rollout plans, even as it faces tougher competition and evolving buyer preferences. Audi’s mix of new car launches and activity in the pre-owned segment has helped keep overall momentum stable. Data shared by the company shows retail sales declining by 18 per cent compared to the corresponding period last year. The slowdown mirrors a broader trend across the premium market, where supply chain issues and cautious spending have affected sales volumes.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/audi-q3-q8-a4-prices-slashed-by-up-to-rs-783-lakh-after-gst-20-update-121723/"> Audi Q3, Q8, A4 Prices Slashed by up to Rs 7.83 Lakh After GST 2.0 Update</a></p><p>Rising costs of ownership and longer replacement cycles are also believed to have influenced demand. Despite this, Audi remains one of the leading luxury car makers in India by volume, supported by a wide model range and finance options aimed at keeping premium vehicles more accessible.</p><p>

The growth reflects the increasing acceptance of certified used luxury cars among urban customers. Dealerships report that more buyers are entering the premium segment through the pre-owned route, drawn by lower entry prices and factory-backed warranties. The pre-owned market, once a small part of the business, has become a important volume driver for several luxury brands, including Audi.</p><p>Warranty-backed cars and transparent quality checks have made the pre-owned buying process more reliable. With the festive season approaching, Audi plans to launch new models and special editions to revive showroom footfall. It is also preparing for a stronger push into electric vehicles over the next year.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/audi-c-concept-unveiled-with-radical-styling-could-this-be-the-next-gen-tt-121666/">Audi C Concept Unveiled with Radical Styling; Could This be the Next-gen TT?</a></p><p>The brand’s near-term goal appears to be maintaining momentum through the combined strength of its new and pre-owned businesses as India’s luxury car market continues to adapt to new demand patterns.</p>

<p>
    India’s national highway network has grown by 60% in the past decade. If that isn’t reason alone for a road trip, I don’t know what is.</p>

<p>The last time I drove to or from Ladakh was a decade ago. On that journey, we got snowed in between the high passes of Baralacha and Taglang La – forcing us to spend the night in a tent on the freezing plains of Sarchu. Fortunately, a hot water bottle saw me through the night. But things have changed quite considerably since.</p><p>Gone are the narrow dirt trails and treacherous drops. Well, the drops are still there, but now they’re concealed behind a ribbon of neat Armco. The dirt tracks that previously doubled as rally stages on the Raid de Himalaya are now gone and have been replaced by two– and sometimes even four–lane highways that make accessing some of the highest motorable roads in the world an absolute breeze.</p>







<h2>Call of the Mountains</h2>

<p>On this occasion, we were driving from Delhi to Leh, with a couple of detours that included Pangong Tso – the world’s highest saltwater lake at over 14,000 feet. The first leg was Delhi to Kullu – an almost 500-kilometre journey that took a little over nine hours at a pretty relaxed pace.
      <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

<p>Sadly, the green fields on the way to Chandigarh have all but vanished and given way to a concrete jungle that lines both sides of NH44 for mile-after-dreary-mile. The Q7 makes quick work of it though – the 3.0-litre turbo-petrol V6 dismissing everything in its wake, while the 19-speaker Bang &amp; Olufsen sound system keeps you totally isolated from the chaos outside.</p><p>Day 2 was easier still, with just a 4-hour journey to Jispa – well short of dreaded Sarchu. This was my first time through the Atal tunnel, which is a spectacular feat of engineering. You enter the 9-kilometre tunnel via a deciduous forest en route to the Rohtang Pass and exit right into the belly of the high-altitude desert that is the Spiti Valley. In fact, the journey was so easy that next time I may head straight to Jispa from Delhi – a journey that, in 2007, took me a full 21 hours nonstop.</p>







<p>Day 3 was over 300-kilometers of high-passes all the way to Leh, but even this once-fearsome journey was smooth-sailing and took just over 7 hours. My memories of this drive consist of charting your own course through the More Plains, in stark contrast to the now beautiful stretch of tarmac that not only cuts through the plains but also snakes its way up the mountain and all the way to Taglang La. There are, of course, some broken stretches, but nothing that the Q7 can’t handle without even breaking a sweat.</p><p>

    </p><p>Before we knew it, we had entered Leh and were driving past the Thiksey monastery. Here, again, I was amazed at the scale of development. A decade ago, you could see Thiksey from afar – perched on top of a hill. Now, it creeps up on you because of the sheer volume of construction in and around Leh.</p>







<p>If you do, nevertheless, want to step back in time, you need to head past Leh and keep going for about an hour-and-a-half towards Kargil, before turning off abruptly in the direction of the village of Mangyu. The village itself is beautiful and quaint, while the monastery is absolutely stunning with its with 800-year-old wall paintings and sculptures. We even got a chance to do some serious off-roading both to-and-from the village – which, thanks to some razor-sharp rocks underfoot, ensured we had a reason to test the hydraulic jack and full-size spare that we brought with us in the event of that inevitable flat tyre.</p><p>A full-size spare wheel and tyre are absolutely essential on a journey such as this. So is, of course, a hydraulic jack, an air compressor and a tyre repair kit. We may have gone overboard because we even brought an oxygen concentrator, as well as a portable power station to run it on the go. Fortunately, it stayed well packed in one corner of the boot the whole time. The spare tyre, though, proved to be very useful.</p><p>

<p>Other than the flat, the Q7 was completely faultless. The air suspension, in particular, deserves special mention. It gives you almost 250mm of ground clearance, which was particularly useful during our daytrip to Pangong Lake. It’s a ten-hour slog to and from Leh, but is well worth the trip. The last, and only, time I visited Pangong was in 2007, and the crystal-clear water reflecting that incredible Himalayan sky to create an Impressionist canvas of indigo hues was a view that I’ve longed for ever since. Needless to say, it didn’t disappoint!</p><p>Here, again, the drive has been completely transformed – the highway was so wide in some stretches that it looked as though you could hold a military parade if you so wish, which, come to think of it, is precisely why the roads in these border areas have become unrecognisable. Especially after the 2020 Galwan skirmish, the road building efforts across the northern frontier have been in overdrive.</p>







<p>I have to say, though, that I miss the heyday of the Raid de Himalaya – the best motoring experience I’ve ever had, bar none. I remember being awestruck during my first attempt in 2006. At the time, my rally Gypsy was brand new, and so we even came away with some silverware for our efforts. The rally was so gruelling, though, that one event was enough to have an enduring impact on the car – literally – so-much-so that we were plagued with mechanical trouble in subsequent years. They say you’ve never really lived until you’ve lived on the edge! Perhaps that explains the euphoria of an event like the Raid, with terrain the likes of which you can only experience in the upper reaches of the Himalayas. The journey now is, of course, a lot safer and more accessible but also a little anodyne as a result. Don’t get me wrong, the views are still spectacular, but you don’t feel the same level of accomplishment on completing it like you did before.</p><p>

    </p><p>That being said, there’s no better machine than the Audi Q7 in which to embark on such a road trip – the refinement, comfort and levels of usability are second to none, as is the ease with which it handles everything that’s thrown at it.</p>





<p>And while all the development has meant that some of the charm is lost, it also means that you just have to look that little bit harder to seek out those really special experiences. Take, for instance, the morning prayers at the Thikse monastery – where the monks let you in to get a brief, but very insightful, glimpse into their daily lives. They even offer you butter tea, as you join them for morning prayers with a side of porridge. It’s incredibly peaceful, and a testament to an incredible and enduring culture. And if ever there was a time for those Buddhist prayer flags to carry the message of compassion and wisdom, it’s now.</p><p>

<p>The Wi-Fi password at our hotel in Leh was ‘responsible-tourism,’ a subliminal message that needs to be far more overt to protect the fragile ecosystem of this majestic land. As we modernise the face of this nation, we also need to be mindful to retain the identity, culture and diversity of this incredible land as we make these remote corners more accessible with each passing day.

<p>Audi has unveiled the Concept C, an all-electric two-seater that signals the company’s plans for its next generation of sports cars. Positioned as more than just a design exercise, the Concept C indicates how Audi intends to integrate electric power, design heritage, and technology into its future road models. The design signals Audi’s current design philosophy. A vertical front grille recalls the company’s racing background, while slim horizontal LED lights and clearly defined lines point towards a forward-looking chapter in its design language. Smooth body surfaces and a carefully measured outline place the Concept C within Audi’s growing electric line-up, while also setting it apart from earlier road-going models.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/new-audi-q3-sportback-globally-revealed-with-coupe-suv-styling-and-e-hybrid-powertrain-121579/">New Audi Q3 Sportback Globally Revealed with Coupe-SUV Styling and e-Hybrid Powertrain</a></p><p>Among the most distinctive features is an electrically retractable hardtop roof. This two-panel configuration maintains the appearance of a coupe when closed but also provides an open-air driving option when lowered.</p><p>

Surfaces employ titanium-inspired tones and metallic detailing, with emphasis placed on clarity rather than excess display features. A foldable digital screen and haptic-based controls help keep the layout ordered, supporting concentration on driving while still leaving digital functions accessible as required.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2025/09/Audi-C-Concept-Interior-Shot-1756876940312.webp" alt="Audi C Concept Interior Shot.jpg" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>Audi has also used the unveiling to highlight its “shy tech” principle. This approach keeps screens concealed until needed, reducing distraction for the driver, while physical buttons remain in place for functions where precision and familiarity are essential. In this way, the Concept C outlines a new approach to human–machine interaction that may shape production models.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/audi-q7-signature-edition-launched-in-india-at-rs-9981-lakh-with-cosmetic-updates-121057/">Audi Q7 Signature Edition Launched in India at Rs 99.81 Lakh with Cosmetic Updates</a></p><p>Concept C is also significant in how it hints at the continuation of the Audi TT legacy.

Industry observers and enthusiasts alike will be monitoring how many of these ideas transition into production.</p>
