Over Rs. 1 Lakh Discounts On Toyota Cars – Glanza, Hyryder, Innova, Fortuner

GaadiWaadi -

Toyota is offering maximum discounts of up to Rs. 1.05 lakh on the Hilux pickup truck while Hyryder gets up to Rs. 55,000

Toyota has entered the new year with good discount deals across the board on its mass market fleet. While rising costs have pushed up prices for models like the Fortuner and Innova, Toyota is using discounts as a tool to protect volumes where competition is fiercest. Resultantly, the Glanza receives one of the most straightforward and effective discount packages.

Buyers can avail total benefits of up to Rs. 40,000, made up of a cash discount of up to Rs. 15,000, an exchange bonus of Rs. 20,000 and a loyalty or corporate benefit of Rs. 5,000. Toyota is first-time owners here while higher exchange bonuses are meant to pull customers away from rival hatchbacks during upgrade cycles as well.

The Urban Cruiser Taisor benefits from a better list of discounts. The turbo petrol variants attract higher savings of up to Rs. 42,500, combining cash discounts, exchange benefits, and loyalty bonuses. In addition, select turbo trims receive a complimentary five-year extended warranty which could improve ownership value.

These models receive total benefits of up to Rs. 55,000 with a higher exchange bonus of Rs. 30,000 and a cash discount of Rs. 15,000. The mild-hybrid petrol versions are offered benefits of up to Rs. 37,000 as well.

Petrol variants of the Toyota Rumion get discounts of up to Rs. 40,000 through cash, exchange and corporate benefits. CNG variants, however, receive limited benefits of up to Rs. 10,000 due to better demand and longer waiting periods. In the premium segment, discounts are far more selective. Innova Crysta buyers can access exchange or loyalty bonuses of up to Rs. 20,000 while Hycross hybrid variants get up to Rs. 30,000 for existing Innova owners.

The Hilux stands out with the biggest savings of up to Rs. 1.05 lakh while luxury models like the Camry receive limited corporate benefits.

Tata EVs Get Massive Discounts Of Up To Rs. 3.8 Lakh – Key Details

GaadiWaadi -

Tata is providing lucrative discounts across its EVs as Tiago EV, Punch EV, Nexon EV, Curvv EV and Harrier EV get benefits

Tata has kicked off 2026 with tempting consumer offers across its electric vehicle lineup. The latest scheme combines green bonuses, exchange or scrappage benefits and loyalty incentives. At the entry level, the Tiago EV continues to be positioned amongst the most accessible electric car in the country. For January, Tata is offering a substantial green bonus of Rs. 70,000 across all variants.

This is complemented by an exchange or scrappage benefit of Rs. 30,000 while loyalty bonuses enhance the deal further. Existing Tata EV owners upgrading to another Tata EV can receive up to Rs. 50,000 while Tata ICE owners switching to electric are eligible for Rs. 20,000. With cumulative benefits touching Rs. 1.5 lakh, this month could be the best time to buy Tiago EV.

The Punch EV, Tata’s micro electric SUV, receives even stronger benefits in January. Buyers are offered a green bonus of Rs. 60,000 along with a higher exchange or scrappage benefit of Rs. 50,000. Loyalty incentives mirror those of the Tiago EV – allowing total benefits to climb up to Rs. 1.6 lakh – making it even more tempting than the electrified Tiago.

Loyalty bonuses of up to Rs. 50,000 for existing Tata EV owners further enhance the deal – taking the total benefit to Rs. 1.2 lakh.

These versions receive a green bonus of Rs. 3 lakh along with exchange or scrappage and loyalty benefits – resulting in total savings of up to Rs. 3.8 lakh.

New Renault Duster To Likely Get AWD In The Future, Diesel A Possibility?

GaadiWaadi -

New Renault Duster is currently available with three engine options: a 1.0L turbo petrol, a 1.3L turbo petrol and a 1.8L hybrid mill

The third generation Duster made its Indian debut a couple of days ago. While the version unveiled in Chennai arrived without an all-wheel-drive system, Renault has confirmed that a 4WD setup remains very much on the table for India should customer demand justify it. This flexibility is enabled by the Renault Group Modular Platform (RGMP), which has been developed to accommodate multiple drivetrain configurations without major structural changes.

Globally, the 2026 Duster already demonstrates what it is capable of when fully equipped. International-spec models offer a 4×4 Terrain Control system with five selectable modes – Auto, Snow, Mud/Sand, Off-road and Eco. In this configuration, the SUV gains a higher 217 mm ground clearance, approach and departure angles of 31 degrees and 36 degrees respectively along with hill-descent control operating at speeds of up to 30 kmph.

Off-road data such as wheel articulation and traction distribution is displayed directly on the infotainment screen. While diesel power has traditionally been a Duster stronghold, stricter emission regulations and tightening CAFE norms make investments for a new oil burner unlikely in the near term. Renault currently does not have a compliant diesel engine in its portfolio and developing one solely for India may not make commercial sense.

That said, the company has left the door open – choosing not to rule out possibilities outright. Even in its two-wheel-drive form, the India-spec Duster doesn’t abandon its adventure roots. With 212 mm of ground clearance and best-in-segment approach and departure angles of 26.9 degrees and 34.7 degrees, it is positioned as a mild off-road capable SUV. On paper at least, Renault claims it is built to handle broken roads and demanding terrain with confidence.

In its existing powertrain lineup, the range-topper is the 1.3-litre turbocharged TCe 160 petrol producing 163 PS and 280 Nm mated to either a six-speed manual or a six-speed wet-clutch DCT. Below it sits the 1.0-litre turbo TCe 100 petrol with a manual gearbox. The biggest talking point, however, is the Strong Hybrid E-Tech 160 which combines a 1.8-litre GDI petrol engine with a 1.4 kWh battery pack – enabling up to 80 per cent electric-only driving in city conditions.

With pricing due in March and deliveries starting in April 2026, the possibility of a future 4WD variant could further consolidate the Duster’s case in an increasingly competitive SUV landscape. A larger seven-seater variant will arrive next FY as well while the aforementioned hybrid version’s prices will be announced later this year.

Bugatti FKP Hommage Revealed As Tribute To the Veyron

Bugatti unveils FKP Hommage one-off hypercar honouring the iconic Veyron

Bugatti has introduced a new one-off hypercar named the FKP Hommage as a tribute to the company’s influential Veyron model. The original Veyron, which debuted in 2005, played a key role in Bugatti’s resurgence after the brand became part of the Volkswagen Group in the late 1990s.

The FKP Hommage is part of Bugatti’s Solitaire coachbuilding programme and uses the mechanical base of the Mistral roadster. The new bodywork draws heavily on the Veyron’s design language, with features such as a prominent front grille and a squared-off profile updated for modern standards. The front end also incorporates narrower LED headlights and broader air intakes.

Visually, the car references the first Veyron built by Bugatti through its red-and-black colour theme, with the black sections made from exposed carbon fibre. Other stylistic cues carried over include multi-spoke wheels, roof-mounted air intakes and side air channels. At the rear, the lighting arrangement mirrors the circular pattern of the original but now uses LED technology. The diffuser and exhaust design have been reworked to suit the newer body.

Inside the FKP Hommage, the layout reflects the design of the Veyron’s cabin, with leather upholstery and embroidered details. Unlike the analogue gauges of the earlier model, the new car blends digital displays with tactile knobs. A notable feature is an octagonal timepiece mounted on the centre console developed in partnership with Audemars Piguet.

The FKP Hommage carries a version of Bugatti’s signature 8.0-litre quad-turbocharged W16 engine, tuned for higher output than ever before. The power unit is reported to produce around 1600 HP and 1600 Nm, with drive delivered to all four wheels through a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. Bugatti has not released pricing details for the bespoke model.

India-EU FTA “Mother Of All Deals” To Slash European Car Prices By Half

GaadiWaadi -

India-EU FTA results in dramatic reduction in import duties on fully built European cars which are set to fall from a punishing 110 per cent to just 10 per cent

India’s landmark Free Trade Agreement with the European Union is being widely called the “Mother of all deals”, and for luxury car buyers, the excitement is fully justified. One of the headline-grabbing outcomes of the pact is the dramatic reduction in import duties on fully built European cars which are set to fall from a punishing 110 per cent to just 10 per cent under a defined quota. When the numbers are crunched, the impact on on-road prices is nothing short of staggering.

Until now, luxury cars imported into India have carried a massive tax burden. A high-end European car typically attracted 110 per cent customs duty, followed by around 40 per cent GST and cess, effectively more than doubling its base price by the time it reached showrooms. The structure is the single biggest reason why global icons like Porsche, Land Rover, Mercedes-Maybach and Rolls-Royce cost nearly twice as much in India as they do abroad.

Under the new India-EU FTA framework, that equation changes completely. With import duty slashed to 10 per cent while GST remains unchanged, the final price stack shrinks big time. Instead of Base Price + 110% duty + 40% GST, buyers now look at Base Price + 10% duty + 40% GST. That single change wipes out a huge chunk of the tax component resulting in prices that are nearly half of what buyers currently pay.

The real-world examples are jaw-dropping. A Land Rover Defender that currently retails at around Rs. 1.03 crore could drop to roughly Rs. 54 lakh. A full-size Range Rover, priced today near Rs. 2.31 crore, could come down to about Rs. 1.21 crore. Performance SUVs like the Lamborghini Urus may see prices fall from around Rs. 4.57 crore to close to Rs. 2.39 crore. Even icons like the Porsche 911 could slip from about Rs. 2 crore to nearly Rs. 1.05 crore while ultra-luxury flagships such as the Rolls-Royce Phantom could potentially be priced near Rs. 4.7 crore instead of Rs. 9 crore.

What makes this even more disruptive is that the savings run into crores, not lakhs. Models such as the Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen, McLaren GT, BMW M cars and high-end Audis stand to benefit massively, instantly expanding the pool of potential buyers in India. While the tariff cut will be phased in and capped by annual volume limits of 2,50,000 vehicles, the psychological and market impact is already enormous.

Beyond pricing, the deal reshapes India’s luxury car landscape. European brands, which currently hold a tiny share of India’s 4.4 million unit annual car market, suddenly gain a powerful incentive to expand their presence. However, it must be noted that the drop in tariffs may not directly translate to abruptive price reductions as brands control the final outcome of the sticker tags. It will be interesting to see how they choose to react!

Top 10 Sedans Dec 2025 – Dzire, Amaze, Tigor, Virtus, Slavia, Aura

GaadiWaadi -

In the list of top 10 sedans sold in December 2025, Maruti Suzuki Dzire continued to sit first ahead of Hyundai Aura, Honda Amaze and VW Virtus

The list of top 10 sedans in December 2025 based on volume sales saw very little changes in the pecking order as the segment continues to lose out to SUVs. Despite the challenges, select models managed to grow year-on-year, showing that sedans still have relevance when priced and positioned right. The CY2026 is shaping up to see quite a few new launches as well.

Leading the segment by a massive margin was the Maruti Suzuki Dzire which clocked 19,072 units in December 2025 – up from 16,573 units a year earlier. The 15 per cent YoY growth shows the Dzire’s unmatched appeal among private buyers and fleet operators alike and the arrival of the brand new generation just a year ago proved to be another success story.

The Hyundai Aura retained its position as the second best-selling sedan with 4,925 units in the final month of last year with a healthy 28 per cent growth over December 2024. The Aura has steadily carved a niche for itself with its affordable pricing, longevity and practicality. In contrast, the Honda Amaze saw volumes drop sharply to 2,575 units from 3,708 units last year – registering a 31 per cent decline.

2. Hyundai Aura	4,925	3,852	28
3. Honda Amaze	2,575	3,708	-31
4. Volkswagen Virtus	2,378	2,257	5
5. Honda City	943	783	20
6. Tata Tigor	775	1,054	-26
7. Skoda Slavia	711	1,894	-62
8. Hyundai Verna	406	872	-53
9. Toyota Camry	200	88	127
10. Skoda Octavia	0	0	—

Among midsize sedans, the Volkswagen Virtus stood out as one of the few bright spots. It posted 2,378 units – marginally higher than last year’s 2,257 units – resulting in a modest 5 per cent growth. The Skoda Slavia, however, faced a steep drop in sales numbers, slipping to just 711 units from 1,894 units with a massive 62 percent YoY decline.

Hyundai’s Verna struggled to maintain momentum as well – recording 406 units compared to 872 units in December 2024 with a steep drop of 53 per cent. The Korean auto major is currently preparing to bring in a mid-cycle refresh for the five-seater midsize sedan. Honda City, on the other hand, managed to buck the trend with 943 units – up 20 per cent on a year-on-year basis.

The Tata Tigor continued its downward trajectory by posting 775 units last month as against 1,054 units during the same period last year with a decline of 26 per cent. At the premium end, the Toyota Camry emerged as a surprise performer, growing sharply to 200 units from just 88 units with a growth of 127 per cent.
