We think BMW is cool which is why we’ve got a BMW special here. The reason being they’re sticking to their original plans and haven’t shelved or put away any of their future cars. They’re our hero!
BMW, despite recession and fall in sales has confirmed it will go ahead with the launch of the X1, 5 Series GT on June 23rd at the Leipzig plant. It will soon be followed by the hybrid versions of the odd-looking X6 and extremely stylish 7 Series, both newcomers in India.

Porsche has revealed that it is planning to introduce its new Diesel variant of its sports utility vehicle Cayenne to India.
The new Porsche Cayenne Diesel is not likely to come anytime soon to the Middle East and Asia, but talks are underway with the Germany’s Porsche executive panel to attempt to secure the vehicle for India, Porsche said in a statement.
Porsche has already begun the production of Cayenne Diesel at Leipzig in Germany and would be initially available in only selected European markets from February 2009.
* The Cayenne diesel will come with a powerful 3-litre V6 Turbo diesel engine with power of 240 Bhp (176 kW) and a peak torque of 550Nm.
* Engine is provided by subsidiary company Audi AG.
* The Cayenne diesel uses 9.3 liters Diesel per 100 kilometers and its CO2 emissions are 244 Grams/Km. Average mileage is 10.7 Kmpl. (Comparable to any fuel efficient SUV!)
Over here we have not 5 or 10, but 20 photographs of the much awaited Porsche Panamera, which is the first four door sports sedan from the German manufacturer. The Porsche Panamera is by far one of the most anticipated models, the official launch, still a few months away. The front-engined, rear wheel drive sporty Grand Tourer will try and make the most out of the luxury 4-door coupe-styled sedan market which will have entries like the Mercedes Benz CLS, Lamborghini Estoque and the Aston Martin Rapide.
