The February 2025 issue of Autocar India is headlined by our review of the new Kia Syros, along with reviews of the Skoda Kylaq and Hyundai Creta Electric. We have also driven the Aston Martin Vantage and ridden the Jawa 42 FJ. Plus, there’s a comprehensive road test of the Kawasaki KLX230 and a report on the Dakar 2025.

Kia Syros review

Kia’s second entrant in the competitive compact SUV space goes big on interior space and comes loaded with segment-first features.

Skoda Kylaq review

Skoda’s first compact SUV has sorted driving dynamics, but can it make a mark despite being late to the party?

Hyundai Creta Electric review

The Creta is an SUV loved by all in this country. So, with Hyundai launching its electric version, we take up the task of finding out if it’s capable of replicating the ICE version’s success.

Defender Octa review

Land Rover claims that the Octa is the most hardcore Defender ever, with beefier underpinnings and off-road-focused kit, such as improved water wading depth. We put these claims to the test in South Africa’s wilderness.

Auto Expo report

Auto Expo 2025 saw over 200 product launches and new participants like China’s BYD and Vietnam’s VinFast. Find out more about this year’s expo in this month’s issue.

Top speed record on Ultraviolette F99

We flew the Indian flag high on Republic Day by setting an India Book of Records title for Fastest Speed Achieved by an Indian Motorcycle (EV) on the Ultraviolette F99. Pick up the February 2025 issue to see how we prepared ourselves for 258kph.

Dakar Rally report

The 2025 edition of the Dakar Rally signalled India’s growing representation in global rally raids. This year was also the first time an Indian driver finished the rally.
