I would like to highlight DPF issues in Bharat Phase 6 OBD2 commercial vehicles. This issue has created so much headaches that Trucks are visiting Service centre’s 3-4 times every month & the issue crops up even after changing sensors & cleaning the equipment. The service centre’s have a fixed approach & they can’t permanently fix this problem. Also they charge exorbitant prices despite the vehicles being under warranty. Pathetic state of affairs.
And why is this happening? Is this more with trucks who aren't spending majority of the time on open highways?
Please select Tata Motors - JLR synergies as a topic for upcoming podcasts.. How the adoption of D8 platform against the X2 limited the engine choices, AWD options etc.. why they didn't re engineer Varicor for mounting transversely, have they really benefitted from these decisions and how effectively they can use JLR EMA platform for Avinya models.. and of course any plans of localising Ingenium engine production.
On the Jimny, i believe it was just a lil late to the party. The car buying spree kind of ended when the Jimny launched. Thar stole that thunder. Guess it will be cherished a lil while later, with a slight change to the positioning. Weekend Adventurer.
This format trumps others by a mile. A refreshing delight listening to clear cut answers and reasoning from veterans of the industry.
Keep it up

Best automobile podcast in India. I get lots of knowledge bcoz topics choosen by you covers most of the areas of automobile industry. Thanks.
Plug in will have huge demand in india -- people don't care for initial 20 percent extra cost in india --- Camry and hycross have proved it numerous times
I have been a fan of these podcasts. I have a suggestion, may be consider starting another podcast on how car things work. Making a common user understand the physics and science behind them. Say for example hydrolic brakes, ABS, etc..
Brilliant Content. With battery technology constantly changing hybrids make much more sense. 🤘🏻💯
I love the autocar podcasts. Very informative. Thanks.
problem with our country is its too obsessed with kitna deti hai, hence the enthusiast products have become bedroom posters.
This show is my favorite show and I wait every week to watch this show and literally to know what topic will the show cover this saturday😍.
Thank you
Simply the best podcast ❤ absolutely no nonsense!!
Can u make an episode all the cars the autocar editors own and why did you choose those cars?
Please make a seperate podcast on EV Scooters upcoming and challneges in current products. Why big brands like Honda are not bringing up new EV scooters. Also adventure ICE engines like Honda ADV, Forza etc. And we have only Yamaha Aerox
It would be a good idea to have Autocar india branded merchandise like mugs T-shirts keychains accessories etc.
Great podcast, love your work, I want to ask will Biodiesel help manufactures make diesel cars other than to discontinue them.
Main problem with Hydrogen is hydrogen storage and distribution. Hydrogen is a very small molecule which has a very high tendency to escape. Storage and distribution of hydrogen will be very expensive.
Toyota Mirai failed miserably in California.
EV is a better option for cars and bus.
Well it's no doubt I am super confident about plug in hybrids if government give some concession on taxation it will allow us to have those cars at a much reasonable prices
When will the tiago and tigor next generation will come? It has been a long time since this gen launched.
This is a great initiative for all auto enthusiast's!!
Enjoy your conversation…especially the one on diesel engine 👏🏼👏🏼
YESSSS My question got answered!! Amazing Podcast 🤠
Great podcast
Really nice information
Thanks for the amazing weekly content, love it!
I noticed that Hyundai de-listed Kona from their website. Any idea why they never launched an updated version to fight in the 25 lakh EV category?
Interesting points made about FWD and RWD configurations. Is there a significant change in the weight distribution between a conventional ICE FWD car and a skateboard RWD EV? Does it mean that the suspension system has to be rethought in a skateboard design?
Why these gems were not recommended by UA-cam
Back in days i used to ask writing letters for Indian car posters to Indian Auto and Auto India :) Mug with subscription would be great.
What about the Volkswagen group Diesels (the TDI)?
Why did they discontinue the TDI?
Any chance of TDI's comeback......
do cars needs to bulkier for rear wheel drive. As the force will be from rear side and chance of front wheel lifting with the rear force possible with lighter vehicle.
How’s about your opinion regarding i20 ivt sportz variant is it better & good product to consider for 6’-1” heighted per, pl do reply or shall go for other car
Sir if you are willing to spend a bit more money take a test drive of fronx 1.0 automatic
Very nice podcast.
Have a budget of 20 to 25 lakh which is the brand I should choose
Ladder on frame or monocoque
Kindly help
Lovely ❤ visit ❤
spammer atleast watch the video first
The information 👍💯💯
I just want to know
Why Maruti Hyundai Tata Honda
Don't provide
..driver side grab handle on roof
..and power window switches illumination.
Plz answer
Sir
Can you please do a deep dive on Mahindra? It’s an Indian brand that’s doing great and I would live to hear your views.
Make a dedicated video on TATA motors and there future ICE powertrain strategy, what kind of engines are under development.
When u make a podcast on Mercedes Benz please include a special part dedicated to the Force traveller in that podcast.......
For next Q&A: Why all automatic transmissions are still being imported? Why no one makes them in India?
Is Mitsubishi was coming to India?
2nd and also 3rd life for handheld devices like cameras.
pls pls do moe of these . thank you all
Autocar,
Is there any chance Maruti Suzuki can get 1.4 litre Turbo petrol engine which is used in abroad in Suzuki cars globally?
Regards,
Dr Girish Kashyap
really Nissan should think to bring INFINITI in Ind that Japanese quality will be something else in all aspects🤩 Toyota/Lexus is very abruptly priced in Indian market
Electric 2 wheelers not having A.B.S
Is it safe?
If I had three choices, Autocar(Big hydrogen), Elon Musk(Dumb Hydrogen) & Nitin Gadkariji(Everything Hydrogen); I would go with option C. He wants to convert oil imports into hydrogen exports, big feat to achieve but an awesome plan to have. 😎
Will Mitsubishi launch any car in india!?
Jimny is failing only because of strategy:
-Launch was was delayed by over 3 years.
-They skipped 3 door, should've launced 3 door then 5 door
-Development of 5 door made it more expensive than it should've been.
Why taxes on on automotive is so high?? And why this rule on CC and length doesn’t make sense??
This is all good and exciting but we also need some good road infrastructure within city. No point having so good brands and cars. We have to have good road infrastructure.
Comet could have done so so much better, if they have put a suspension which is capable of handling Indian roads, which we all know are nowhere as good as the roads where the Comet originated from. My daily commute to office is nearly 61 kms, and Comet could have perfect for that, but due to suspension, I shy away from making that purchase.
I staunchly believe Tata should revive the Nano nameplate, and give India a EV like Comet, but with a better suspension setup.
Isuzu MUX new gen launch?
Answer this- how much are india dependent on Chinese import in form of small to big parts for making car in terms of %? If possible elaborate ,kine tata and mahindra are resoucing everything from India only?
Will Subaru will come to India ?
No :-(
If Nissan brings Infiniti, Honda should also bring Acura.
If hybrids are launched to mass market cars with affordable price’s, It would be a huge loss to fuel and the auto manufacturers.
They want the mass market cars to burn the consumer’s money and give out hybrids to those who can actually afford fuel.
It’s all messed up!
Diesel hybrids should be the next big thing and also bring out a solution to DPF problem in BS6 engines. 🙌
Suzuki lost the game when it comes to Jimny. With hilly terrains, and narrow unpaved roads in North-east India, the nimble 3door Jimny would have been a hit. 😔
Please request Suzuki to sell the 3door Jimny in India too.
🙏
I am an Indian .... In USA for a vacation and I am surprised to see so many Brand and so many options for car enthusiasts, why can't India have such options ??? Quality of Interior and Quality of Car is so good... love to see these cars in INDIA.
I Love your podcast, so much to learn from you guys. KEEP THIS PODCAST GOING
One big factor is the purchase power of the car buyers. A quick Google search came up with following numbers for average new car price - in USA of around $48,000 compared to ₹12 lakh (~$14,000) in India
Nobody asked any question about an issue which is very relevant to India. Ethanol blending and Flex Fuel vehicles.
Covered in our last podcast on efficiency:-)
Plug-in Hybrids will work only for a consumer shifting back from EV’s or used to the EV ecosystem. They right now exist only in expensive cars and I don’t think their users care much about the mileage to consciously put them to charge. In cheaper cars, they will end up having weaker engines and lack absolute ICE power, which will fail them as a long distance vehicle of choice. However, Strong and Mild Hybrids with its convenience shall work only for the short term, only to be eaten up by EV cars. All of this conversation may go for a toss, until and unless we have the right infrastructure with fast charging capabilities.
want jeep to comeback also tax reduction on hybrids and BMW makes its designs better 🥲🥲
