Highlights of Auto Today dated January 2022 issue: The first issue of 2022 packs a punch with a long list of reviews of new cars and motorcycles, features, news, comparisons and more. We tell you all you need to know about the upcoming Kia Carens ahead of its launch. The First Drive section comprises two interesting electric cars. First, there is the brilliant new Hyundai Ioniq 5, an EV on the cards for the Indian market, driven on international soil.

The second one is an all-electric MPV from BYD called the e6 that has been launched in India targeted at the commercial segment. We've also driven the updated new VW Tiguan that has been launched with revised exteriors, interiors and a new petrol engine, as well as the ultra-luxurious Maybach version of Mercedes-Benz's flagship GLS SUV. The new Mahindra XUV700 is certainly an impressive product but to find out just how good it is, we pit it against rivals Tata Safari and Hyundai Alcazar in our comprehensive road test.

The January 2022 issue features the Great India Drive as we take the Hyundai Alcazar on a mega road trip featuring inspiring individuals engaged in fields of architectural and ecological conservation using sustainable practices. There's a round-up of the best automotive tech and machines from the 2022 CES and tips on how to #BeTheBetterGuy with a focus on the perils of over-speeding. The incredible Sherp 4x4 vehicle blows us away with its capabilities and our write-up tells you exactly what makes it so incredible.

Switching from four wheels to two, this month's Top Story gives you the first look at the resurrected Yezdi brand that has entered the market with three motorcycles and we get astride Indian's big bad bagger, the Roadmaster Dark Horse. As always, there are updates on our long term cars and motorcycles as well as all the news and developments from the domestic, international and electric automotive scene. Enjoy the January '22 issue of Auto Today and until next time, ride and drive safe.
