Honda Cars, Nissan Motor to merge soon to take on Toyota Motor, Tesla: Report

December 18, 2024

by Car Bima with No Comment car updates

Honda Cars and Nissan Motor are among the top three carmakers from Japan that also operate in India.

Two of the Japanese auto giants, Honda Cars and Nissan Motor, are reportedly considering a merger in the coming days to take on rivals like Toyota Motor and EV giants.

Japanese auto giants Honda and Nissan may soon join hands in a joint effort to grow in terms of sales as well as compete against rivals like Toyota Motor and Tesla, BYD in the electric vehicle segment. According to media reports, both the carmakers are involved in preliminary talks on a possible merger in the coming days. Nissan Motor is currently struggling to keep costs down through layoffs. The new merger will mean that Nissan will cut ties with French auto giant Renault.

Honda and Nissan are the largest carmakers in Japan in terms of volume and are followed by Toyota Motor. All three also operate in global markets including India. Toyota is one of the top five car manufacturers in India with popular models like Fortuner, Innova HighCross, Urban Cruiser Highrider. Honda and Nissan Motor are placed at the bottom with very low share in India. Honda sells models like City, Amaze and Elevate while Nissan has two models on sale – Magnite and X-Trail SUVs.

Also Read: Considering 2024 Honda Amaze? This is why the VX variant could be your best choice

The seeds of speculation of a Honda-Nissan merger were laid in March this year when both the Japanese carmakers agreed to explore a strategic partnership in the electric vehicle segment. The tie-up aims to take on not only big carmakers like Toyota, but also some EV giants like Tesla and Chinese electric vehicle makers like BYD.

Honda-Nissan merger: How carmakers reacted

Honda and Nissan have not denied the media reports outright. A Honda spokesperson responded to the reports, saying, “We are discussing the possibilities of future collaboration between Honda and Nissan in various fields and those possibilities include the latest reports, but nothing has been decided “

A Nissan spokesperson issued the following statement to HT Auto. “The content of the report that Honda, Nissan and MMC are considering a business integration is not based on our company's announcement. As announced in March and August this year, Nissan, Honda and MMC are considering future cooperation. “We are considering various possibilities, including the content of the report, but no decision has been taken; if there is an update, we will inform all stakeholders at the appropriate time.”

Nissan Motor also issued a statement on Wednesday, saying, “The content of the report that Honda, Nissan and MMC are considering a business integration is not based on our company's announcement. As announced in March and August this year, Nissan, Honda and MMC are considering various possibilities for future cooperation, including the content of the report, but no decision has been made. If there is any update, we will inform all stakeholders at the appropriate time.”

Also read: Despite internal turmoil, Nissan will go ahead with India plans, increase workforce

This speculation comes at a time when Nissan Motor is facing a major financial crisis. In November, Nissan announced cuts of 9,000 jobs worldwide. The carmaker had also said it would reduce global production capacity by 20 percent. Its CEO Makoto Uchida even said he was willing to forfeit half his salary to help the carmaker stay afloat.

For the first time ever, the Lamborghini EV is arriving later than previously told. here's why

December 17, 2024

by Car Bima with No Comment car updates

The Lamborghini Lanzador Concept EV was unveiled in 2023, but the production version is now arriving a year after the initially announced date.

Lamborghini's all-electric Lanzador is touted as an extremely powerful machine with zero tailpipe emissions.

It has been known for a long time that a Lamborghini electric supercar is coming. But while the Italians had previously confirmed an unveiling in 2028, the company's top boss has now said the showcase has now been pushed back a year. The Lamborghini Lanzador Concept EV version was previously showcased in 2023 and the production version will be based on it.

The first-ever Lamborghini EV or electric vehicle is one of the most anticipated unveilings of the decade and while purists continue to argue against the idea, the march of battery-powered mobility options has included supercars as well. It was never about 'if' but 'when' and when Lamborghini confirmed plans to go electric, there was a lot of excitement in the automotive world about the decision. However according to Reuters, Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann has said that unveiling plans have been moved to 2029.

Also Read: With Lanzador EV, Lamborghini is prioritizing crossovers over sedans

Winkelmann explained that the reason for pushing back the unveiling timeline is to ensure that the market is ready for a Lamborghini EV. He reportedly said, “We don't think 2029 will be too late for electric cars. We don't think, in our segment, the market will be ready in 2025 or 2026.”

lamborghini hybrid vs electrics

Lamborghini is famous for building some of the most powerful sports cars in the world since the 1960s. But when it launched its first SUV, skeptics suspected a change in strategy. But the Lamborghini Urus has been a big hit, propelling the Italian supercar maker to record sales and profits. There is now a Lamborghini Urus Hybrid as well as a Lamborghini Temerario which is powered by a V8 twin-turbo engine with three electric motors. The Lamborghini Revuelto plug-in hybrid has also been a hot favorite since its launch in 2023.

While Lamborghini has underlined its commitment to hybrid technology, there are also plans to go fully electric. And Lanzador is a march towards this ultimate objective.

The Lamborghini Lanzadore Concept showcased last year is a grand tourer with a 2+2 seating arrangement. It has a high-power electric motor on each axle which means it will have permanent all-wheel drive. The EV will feature e-torque vectoring on the rear axle Lamborghini says the maximum power output will be over one megawatt which is around 1,340 bhp. It has also been confirmed that the Lanzador will come with Lamborghini Dinamica Veicolo Integrata (LDVI) which is essentially a driving dynamics control system. There will be multiple sensors and actuators that will be integrated into the system that ensures precise driving behavior.

Range Rover Autobiography LWB: What the ₹56 lakh price drop means for the king of SUVs

December 16, 2024

by Car Bima with No Comment car updates

The Range Rover Autobiography LWB or Long Wheelbase plays in a league of its own. In the streets of posh colonies of South Delhi, where luxury cars are a dime a dozen, where even its smaller siblings like the Velar, Sport or Evoque don't always draw a second glance, this gentle giant gets envious glances. Managing the Range Rover within city limits is clearly not easy – it is 5,200 mm long and 2,200 mm wide. But that's like living in a palace and worrying about open spaces. Leave the worries to the property managers or in this case the driver.

Range Rover Autobiography in VIP Lane

Range Rover HSE LWB priced now 2.36 crores while Range Rover Autobiography is ₹2.60 crore (before taxes).

Unconfirmed surveys have revealed that there are no Range Rovers in India that are actually owner driven. And yet this flagship has a lot to offer for the man sitting behind the wheel charged with piloting a three-tonne warship.

You'd be crazy to expect a spirited drive from this SUV. But the three-litre straight-six turbocharged petrol motor under the hood does a remarkably good job of giving the Range Rover LWB a confident drive. Around 394 bhp and 550 Nm of torque are on offer and while not being sporty, the SUV can accelerate from 0 to 100 kmph in six seconds, which is something to appreciate when it comes to power. However for the most part, that order will not be placed.

Driving the Range Rover Autobiography LWB around Delhi requires a fair amount of adjustment, even if one is more accustomed to driving. Certainly doesn't help bikers trying to get a look. But after the initial phase, the true character of the vehicle begins to become apparent. Linear acceleration, quick gear shifts and a fairly manageable steering all combine to help enhance the feel. Don't just go by mileage. Not with air conditioning anyway.

However the real strength of this machine comes out in the clear and open parts. Once again, it won't zip, zap, or zoom really fast. Instead, the confident progress towards three-digit speeds and beyond is pleasantly reassuring, while the SUV remains firmly planted through it all. Even turns and turns at moderate speeds are negotiated well – which is important considering the height and dimensions of the model.

Range Rover Autobiography: designed for the rich

Driving a Range Rover is an experience but to be honest, it is a vehicle that is tailor-made for commuters. A Meridian sound system with 35 speakers, a dedicated 11.4-inch touchscreen display for rear seat passengers, a high-class air-purification system, durable fabrics on the upholstery – this SUV comes fully loaded. Of course, there are plenty of unique options that can set each unit apart from the others.

But beyond the gadgets and gizmos lies the beauty of simple yet luxurious opulence. Roll up the electronically-controlled blinds and the Range Rover continues to captivate you and your senses in a world that is a stark contrast to the world outside. Even while on the move, this SUV is determined to minimize every bump, every brake and every turn.

At the end of it all, as mentioned, the Range Rover is playing in a league of its own. You get what you pay for and in this case, it is 2.60 crores before taxes. Still not exactly pocket change for the creamy layer, the Range Rover Autobiography offers an experience that few other rivals can.
