Our February issue features an India-exclusive drive of the BMW X4, a close look at the all-new Maruti Suzuki Wagon R, an exhaustive road test of the Mahindra Alturas G4, and a comparison between the Nissan Kicks, Hyundai Creta and Renault Captur. Also part of this issue are reviews of the Jaguar F-Pace 25t petrol, Triumph Scrambler 1200 and a battle between three exciting bikes that cost less than Rs 3 lakh. Here are the highlights:

BMW X4
