The Bugatti Chiron Super Sport goes head-to-head with the Rimac Nevera in an absolutely ballistic cover story. We drive these two hypercar legends to see what lies ahead in the stratosphere of the performance world for both EVs and ICE, and try to understand what the future of the Rimac-Bugatti story will be. This is a story that you don’t wanna miss!

Also in this issue are the two most important bikes of the year – Harley-Davidson X440 and Triumph Speed 400. We have first drive reviews of the Mercedes-AMG SL 55, the iconic two-seat sports coupe which has made a comeback in the Indian market, the mind-blowingly fast Lucid Air Sapphire, the ultra-luxurious Bentley Continental GT S, the all-new Maserati Grecale and a couple of updated SUVs — the 2023 BMW X1 and Hyundai Alcazar turbo-petrol.

The feature section is headlined by our new record for the fastest crossing of the Rann of Kutch in the VW Virtus GT. That’s not all, we’ve kicked-off a new series, which is a continuation of our popular Great Driving Roads stories, where we will be exploring all the new expressways of India. We’ve started with the one that has been in the news lately, Maharashtra’s longest expressway — the Samruddhi Mahamarg. We also have a look at Maranello’s flagship hypercar — the Ferrari SF90 XX and the prancing horse’s epic domination at the 2023 24 Hours of Le Mans. Also read about our adventure to the world’s highest tea estate with the Toyota Hilux, a trip to Goa to experience free fall in the Renault Triber and a meetup with an enthusiastic Nissan Magnite owner. And a first drive in the Aston DB12 from Monaco to France's highest road.

Bugatti and Rimac

After acquiring a 55 per cent stake at Bugatti, Croatian electric hypercar manufacturer Rimac also announced that it will lend its high-performance drivetrains to the French hypercar maker for its upcoming EVs. We drive the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport and the Rimac Nevera to get an idea of what the future holds and how the electric Bugatti might turn out.
