After a four-year absence, Citroën is planning a return to the D segment in Europe. The new contender – which apparently “offers the elegance of a saloon, the versatility of an estate and the commanding presence of an SUV” – has been named C5 X.
Hyundai has added a couple of sporty-looking trim grades to its 2021 Tucson line-up. Named N Line and N Line S, they both feature a unique front grille, restyled body-coloured bumpers, a larger rear spoiler and a set of 19” alloy wheels.
Two manufacturers are supplying the Formula 1 Safety and Medical Cars this season. Mercedes-AMG continues to provide the familiar GT R F1 Safety Car and C 63 S Estate F1 Medical Car (albeit both now painted red), while Aston Martin will fulfil the role for the first time with the Vantage F1 Safety Car and DBX F1 Medical Car.
As part of its India 2.0 product strategy, Å koda has introduced the Kushaq. At 4,221 mm (13’ 10”) long and 1,760 mm (5’ 9”) wide, this new SUV is about the same size as the B-segment Kamiq that’s currently sold in Europe.
Volkswagen has added a Sportline trim grade to its Transporter line-up. Available for both panel van and Kombi models in either short- or long-wheelbase guises, this new styling package also benefits from a decent level of equipment.
