<br/>This is the second generation of the biggest Mini car from the lineup and it has a lot of improvements over the previous generation of the <a href="https://carprices.ae/brands/mini/2021/countryman-2/">Mini Countryman</a>. While in this generation it promises to deliver practicality, desirability and space compared to the previous gen.<br/>https://youtu.be/cZ526JTiv-E<br/>The Mini Cooper S Countryman ALL4 2021 is powered by a 2.0-Litre, Inline 4-cylinder twin stage turbocharged engine that manages to produce 178 bhp and 280 Nm of torque. This Mini Cooper has an 8-speed Steptronic automatic transmission. While the ALL4 badge means it has an all-wheel-drive (AWD) system. The 2021 Mini Cooper Countryman manages to deliver a fuel economy between 9 - 9.5 kmpl. The transmission is one of the tried and tested smooth power delivery houses. It has one of the better handling capabilities than most cars in its segment.<br/>The Mini Cooper Countryman 2021 has grown by 75 mm and get the famous union jack styled rear tail lights which are also available in the 2 doors Mini Cooper S.

<br/>Welcome to the 3rd generation of the Lexus IS series which was first launched in 2015. The Lexus IS are meant to be sporty sedans with luxurious interiors done in the most Lexus ways. The particular model I tested was the <a href="https://carprices.ae/brands/lexus/2021/is-2/">2021 Lexus IS</a> 350 F Sport Platinum.<br/>https://youtu.be/Yooi0vXsri4<br/>The new Lexus IS 350 is powered by a 3.5-litre, V6 engine that produces 311 bhp and 378 Nm of torque. It is mated to an 8-speed direct shift automatic transmission and is a rear-wheel drive (RWD). The engine is naturally aspirated and may feel slightly slow to respond. The power though immense still lacks that low rpm response. It does not throw any unwanted surprises. (good thing and bad thing at the same time). Lexus has also replaced the steel control arms with aluminium ones to make them lighter. They have included additional welds in the chassis to make it stiffer.<br/>The F Sport package has a lot of additions like the piano black front end grill, 19-inch forged alloys, F Sport leather seats, 17-speakers Mark Levinson surround sound system. And a 10.3-inch infotainment system that is a touchscreen. The touchscreen feature makes working around the Lexus infotainment system much easier, removing the need to use the not so friendly trackpad.<br/>The 2021 Lexus IS 350 F Sport competes directly with the BMW 3-Series, Cadillac CT4-V, Genesis G70 and the Mercedes C-Class.

In the detailed review, I answer if this version of the 2021 Supra is better than the previous generation.<br/>https://youtu.be/Y9DO0VsMUvA<br/>The particular model specification that I reviewed was the 2021 Toyota Supra GR Blue edition. It comes in blue colour with black side decals on it and black and blue leather interiors. The GR version which is the Gazoo Racing version of the Supra has a few elements changed from the car it is based on which is the 2021 BMW Z4.<br/>The Toyota Supra shares a lot of its components with the BMW Z4 like the chassis, engine and drivetrain, interiors and suspension components. The new Supra comes with a 3.0-litre, 6-cylinder, inline, twin-turbocharged petrol engine that produces 382 bhp and 500 Nm of torque. It comes with an 8-speed automatic gearbox driving the rear wheels.

There is also wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. It comes with a heads up display (HUD). The new Supra is a well proportioned and voluptuous sports car at a reasonable price.

2021 Toyota Supra GR Review | Better Than The Previous Generation?

<br/>The second-generation Range Rover Evoque is a smaller SUV compared to Velar, but, with the same features. There are lots of positive changes to the latest P300 version of the Evoque. The particular model that I reviewed was, the 2021 Range Rover Evoque R-Dynamic HSE.<br/>https://youtu.be/6w2wo5vT_CM<br/>The Range Rover Evoque 2021 is powered by a 2.0-litre, 4-cylinder, twin-turbocharged MHEV (mild hybrid electric vehicle) that produces 296 bhp and 400 Nm of torque. The power is sent to the wheels through a 9-speed automatic transmission. The 2021 Evoque comes with a four-wheel-drive (4WD) system. In the most typical Range Rover ways, the Evoque is a capable off-roader too. The engine is one of the smoothest when it comes to response and power delivery. while the gearbox is crisp and gentle when it comes it is running through the gears.<br/>The Range Rover Evoque looks very similar to the Range Rover Velar. Even the interior and the technology offered is on similar lines. Here are some of the interior features:<br/>- 10-inch Pivi Pro infotainment system<br/>- 600 mm wading depth<br/>- 12.3-inch multi-information driver's display<br/>- Windsor leather seats<br/>- Adaptive cruise control<br/>- Clearsight rearview mirror<br/>- Clearsight ground view -<br/>15-speaker Meridian surround sound system<br/>The Range Rover Evoque R-Dynamic HSE is priced at AED 318,675. But, it somewhat lags behind when it comes to the fuel economy. It delivers a modest 8 to 9 kmpl of fuel economy.<br/>The Evoque is a fashionable small SUV that has brand name recognition. While many SUVs are busy justifying their existence with performance and cargo space, the 2021 Range Rover Evoque goes for being one of the most attractive designs in the business. The Range Rovers are one of the best in the business when it comes to driving position and will just spoil you with luxury.<br/>Evoque is in direct competition with the BMW X1, Audi Q3 and Volvo XC40.

<br/>The Hyundai Sonata was redesigned and launched in 2019. From that point, it still remains one of the most stylish sedans that you will in the segment. It competes directly with the likes of Toyota Camry, Volkswagen Passat, Nissan Altima, Honda Accord and Kia K5.<br/>https://youtu.be/TRQ4KUWnLCY<br/>The Hyundai Sonata 2021 comes with a 2.5-litre, 4 cylinders, GDI engine that manages to produce 194 bhp and 245 Nm of torque which has been mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission. The Hyundai Sonata only comes in the front-wheel-drive (FWD) setup. The ride quality on the Hyundai Sonata 2021 is very comfortable and offers a lot of space for the passengers. The Sonata offers an indifferent driving experience and may let a few bumps into the cabin. Hence, the ride needs a little bit of smoothening.<br/>The 2021 Sonata is a really great way to get attention on the road while driving a family sedan. It has a quirky design, dramatic styling and bright trims that flows along with the front fenders and into the headlights which the Hyundai designers call a lighting signature.<br/>On the inside, the new Sonata flaunts a sophisticated attractive space loaded with upscale features and plenty of passenger room. The infotainment system relies on a 10.5-inch centre touchscreen. In the connectivity options, you will find Bluetooth, Auxillary, Android Auto and Apple Carplay. It comes with a 12-speaker Bose sound system. On the whole, the interior of the Sonata feels more than its price tag.<br/>The Hyundai Sonata is less about the numbers and more about value. An impressive amount of content and features makes it a really attractive offering. The top version of the Hyundai Sonata is priced at AED 127,995.

2021 Hyundai Sonata Review | A Quirky Design Midsized Sedan

<br/>The 2021 Hyundai Tucson has had many cosmetic changes over the years and has evolved to be one of the most perfect family cars. The particular version I reviewed was the top of the Hyundai Tucson Premium. This version of the Tucson is the last year for it before we will see the 2022 Hyundai Tucson getting introduced.<br/>https://youtu.be/xiLraAVn-10<br/>The Hyundai Tucson 2021 shares a lot of parts with the Kia Sportage including the engine. So this Tucson 2021 comes with a 2.4-litre, 4-cylinder, GDI engine that produces 184 bhp and 240 Nm of torque. While it comes with a 6-speed automatic gearbox which has an impressive gearing ratio not feeling you the need to have more gears. The Hyundai Tucson has an All-Wheel-Drive (AWD) system.<br/>On the interior, you will find an updated 8-inch infotainment system and an 8-speakers Infinity sound system. The infotainment system is smooth most of the time with an occasional lag sometimes. It is intuitive and easy to use though.<br/>In terms of the safety system, all the models across the Tuscon range come with all the standard safety features. So there is never a compromise on the safety system irrespective of whichever model you pick up.<br/>The Hyundai Tuscon instead of living up to the word sporty in the SUV is a CUV which is a comfortable utility vehicle. It has a great bit of handling and leather seats are comfortable enough for longer journeys. The Hyundai Tucson does very little wrong and a great deal right. It has space, refinement, excellent ownership costs and overall ease of use. it is one of the best budget family SUV.<br/>The 2021 Hyundai Tuscon competes with the Peugeot 3008, Nissan Qashqai, Mazda CX 5 and Kia Sportage.

<br/>Skoda cars are some of the best practical cars that you will find in the market. The Skoda Kamiq in fact stands to be better than the VW T-Roc. The Skoda Kamiq shares a lot of its part from the Volkswagen and Audi. This is why you would see a lot of similarities between them. The only thing that makes the Kamiq different is that it is more practical, spacious and affordable to own. The particular that I reviewed was the Skoda Kamiq Sportline.<br/>https://youtu.be/Qrpkksu8lo4<br/>The 2021 Skoda Kamiq is powered by a 1.6-litre, 4-cylinder engine that produces 109 bhp and 155 Nm of torque. While the engine is mated to a 6-speed Tiptronic transmission. The engine tends to feel a little underpowered on occasions when you need the power to get away from the traffic or overtake on road. Also, the gearing ratios feel a little short and hence it feels short of a couple of gears.<br/>On the inside, there is an 8-inch Bolero infotainment system which is quite sufficient for the segment. It relatively fast and has simple easy to understand options. The feature that stands out is the panoramic sunroof which though doesn't open but gives a very roomy feeling inside the cabin. The best part of the Skoda Kamiq is that you get plenty of standard equipment in all the models. Skoda UAE has introduced three different variants of the Kamiq 2021.<br/>The Skoda Kamiq competes directly with the Nissan Juke, VW T-Roc, Renault Captur and Hyundai Kona.

<br/>The MG 5 was introduced in 2016 but was discontinued a year later. Then in 2020 MG relaunched the 5 with a complete redesign and more feature-loaded.<br/>https://youtu.be/KDSn_7Bn4kk<br/>The particular MG 5 model I reviewed was the top-spec version from its offerings. In this MG 5 2021, you get a 1.5-litre petrol engine that produces 118 bhp and 150 Nm of torque. The gearbox is a CVT and that gives you essentially a fuel economy of 13 to 14 kmpl.<br/>On the inside, you get a 10-inch vibrant infotainment system. Though the system had fewer buttons it still was slightly confusing to operate since the buttons present to use the system has multiple roles of even managing the air conditioner. MG 5 is pretty well made on the inside with a decent fit and finish. The one to be noted was the optional extra leather seats which are highly recommended. The seats are comfortable than even some of the premium and larger sedans.<br/>Normally you would expect a budget car to have a limitation on the tech front but not on this 2021 MG 5. A feature that will leave you surprised is the 360-degree camera system. It has eight different views to choose from and has an option to view it in 2D or 3D. What's impressive is the fact that the output from the camera is smooth and clear.<br/>The new MG 5 competes with the <a href="https://carprices.ae/2021/06/22/2021-nissan-sunny-review-budget-sedan/">2021 Nissan Sunny.</a>

2021 MG 5 Review | A Budget-Friendly Compact Sedan

<br/>Nissan Sunny is one of the essential cars for everyday use. It is budget-friendly and does not cut down on essential features. With the new version, the new Sunny has jumped to the top of the list of compact sedans with a stylish new design. It no longer is an eye-sore to look at. It is one of those budget cars that got more appealing now than ever. With Nissan introducing the facelift Sunny at the end of the year 2019 at the Dubai Motor Show.<br/>https://youtu.be/YgbeLF8H668<br/>The 2021 Nissan Sunny design is inspired by the new V-motion design language that Nissan has adopted on its other models like the Nissan Altima, Nissan Patrol and Nissan Maxima. While the newer generation of the Nissan Sunny is powered by a slightly bigger engine which is a 1.6-Litre, 4-cylinder, DOHC that produces 118 bhp and 149 Nm of torque. In spite of having a bigger engine, it still is more fuel-efficient than the older generation of Sunny delivering a fuel economy of anywhere between 14 to 15 kmpl. All thanks to its Xtronic CVT transmission.<br/>The interior has quite some upgrades too. The Nissan Sunny 2021 now offers a 7-inch infotainment display that can be connected using the Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. It comes with premium fabric seats.

<br/>The particular model that I reviewed was the 2021 Mazda CX-9 Signature edition. It is the top of the line version and is offered with ample goodies. The Mazda CX-9 2021 has one of the best fit and finish when it comes to material choice and fit &amp; finish. It has white leather seats which are super comfortable during the long journey. While the third row of the seat has decent space, it still is far better than many 7-seater SUVs in its segment.<br/>https://youtu.be/f8dRM1bMkCQ<br/>The Mazda CX 9 comes with an 8-inch TFT touchscreen infotainment system. The MZD system on it now seems aged and it's time Mazda introduces the newer system found in the Mazda CX-30 and the Mazda 3 hatchback. You still can connect to the system using the Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.<br/>The Mazda CX-9 comes with a 2.5-Litre, 4-cylinder, turbocharged SkyActiv engine that produces 227 bhp and 420 Nm of torque. This engine is mated to a 6-speed SkyActiv transmission. This powertrain will deliver a fuel economy between 9 - 10 kmpl. The 2021 CX-9 comes with an All-Wheel-Drive (AWD) system. But it is not available on the base model which comes with front-wheel-drive (FWD) only.<br/>The CX-9 though it's been 4 years from the day it was launched still remains one of the finest family SUV that is well made and has all the comfort features. The CX-9 has always remained ahead of its time even when it was first launched. It set the design base for the other models like Mazda CX-3, Mazda CX-5, Mazda 6, Mazda 3 and Mazda CX-30.

2021 Mazda CX-9 Review | It's Still The Best 7-Seater Family SUV

<br/>GMC unveiled the newer generation of its popular 7-seater family SUV which is the Yukon. The GMC Yukon 2021 comes in 4 different variants which are the Yukon SLE, Yukon SLT, Yukon Denali and Yukon AT4. The GMC Yukon AT4 is introduced for the first time with a more focussed off-roading SUV. It has a desert bumper which is only available in the Middle East region. The desert bumper also gives the Yukon an angle of approach of 34 degrees.<br/>https://youtu.be/rIJ69Cj7FDM<br/>The GMC Yukon Denali is a more luxurious and city cruising SUV. While the new Yukon has grown bigger by 3% but it offers 66% more boot space and 40% extra third-row space when compared to the previous generation of the Yukon. The 2021 Yukon AT4 has a 4-corner air suspension that allows a driver to raise the height of the car by 2-inches when put in the off-road mode. The air suspension also offers a comfortable ride on the road.<br/>The GMC Yukon AT4 comes with a 5.3 Litre, V8, naturally aspirated petrol engine that pumps out 355 bhp and 520 Nm of torque. It comes with a four-wheel-drive (4WD) system and has a 2-speed transfer case with an electronic differential. The Yukon comes standard with a 10-speed automatic gearbox across all the models. The 2021 Yukon Denali is offered with a 6.2L, V8 engine.<br/>On the technology front, GMC has introduced a 10.2-inch infotainment system which has the latest operating system. This is one of the fastest OS I have ever used. There is a diagonally 15-inch long heads up display (HUD). GMC has also introduced on its Yukon the On Star GMC service that is like an assistant service to help you out with anything around your car. The Yukon 2021 comes with Bose premium sound system and has 8 cameras to help you out with parking. The new interior comes with jet black coloured seats with Kalahari accents in them.<br/>The GMC Yukon AT4 also competes with the 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe High Country.

2021 GMC Yukon AT4 Review | Better Than The Rest Of The Off-Roaders?

<br/>The BMW 4-series was launched last year in October with a redesigned front end with a bigger grille. The BMW grilles are one of its signature design features. But these big BMW grille had a mixed reaction from their fan base. Honestly, these grilles actually look pretty good on the new 4-series and after spending a few days with the 430i, I can assure you that these grilles grow on you.<br/>https://youtu.be/FDl8H4hXsLg<br/>The BMW 430i 2021 comes with a 2.0-Litre, turbocharged, 4-cylinder petrol engine that produces 258 bhp and 400 Nm of torque. The engine on this 4-series 2021 is one of the best ones I have driven. It has smooth power and torque delivery graph. While this engine is mated to an 8-speed automatic gearbox and has a rear-wheel-drive (RWD). As a part of the M Sport package, you get an M Sport differential, Adaptive M Suspension, M Sport body kit, M Sport seats and an M Sport Steering.<br/>On the technology front, the 2021 BMW 430i coupe has the latest and the upgraded infotainment system which is the BMW iDrive 7 Infotainment System which is a 10.3 touchscreen. There is also a BMW gesture control system, BMW Concierge service and BMW assistant. The new BMW 4 series 2021 also comes with a Harman Kardon premium sound system.<br/>It also has all the safety systems including a brilliant 360-degree camera system. The BMW coupe has also got a better rear-seat room when you compare it to the other German cars in its segment.

2021 BMW 430i M Sport Review | Coupe Better Than A 3-Series?

<br/>The Crossland X was introduced in 2017 as a competitor in the already crowded compact family SUV segment. The bits that I like the most about this car are the looks and the engine. Though it is a baby SUV it still manages to be family-friendly and practical with lots of space in the boot and for the passengers inside the car.<br/>https://youtu.be/irI34u4QYPg<br/>The Opel Crossland X 2021 comes with a 1.2L, turbocharged petrol engine that produces 110 bhp and 205 Nm of torque at just 1500 rpm. Which makes this tiny little engine super responsive. While this engine has been mated to a six-speed automatic gearbox and comes with a front-wheel-drive (FWD) as standard.<br/>The infotainment system is an 8-inch touchscreen that is basic and easy to use. The material quality may feel a little cheap at a few places with slightly dodgy panels at some places. The rear seats do fit two people easily but the rear door opening seems to be smaller than usual.<br/>The Opel Crossland 2021 replaced the Opel Mokka X. The Opel Crossland X is also sold as Vauxhall Crossland X in Europe and the United Kingdom (UK). The Crossland X competes directly with the Peugeot 2008 and Renault Captur.

<br/>This is the first time Lexus has introduced a soft-top convertible. While the hardtop Lexus LC500 looks pretty gorgeous, the convertible elevates its styling to another level. The LC500 Convertible is stylish, comfortable and gives you that exclusivity.<br/>https://youtu.be/Xkfw8VemHyU<br/>Lexus has also made sure that while converting it into the convertible version the boot space, however small, was still not affected. The roof of the LC500 folds down in 17 seconds while takes 15 seconds to fold up and it can work at a speed of up to 31 mph.<br/>This Lexus LC500 Convertible comes with the 5.0-Litre, V8 naturally aspirated petrol engine that is mated to the world's first 10-speed automatic gearbox. It is a rear-wheel drive (RWD). The engine note is one of the best that you will hear from a road-going car. It's bassy and has an ear-pleasing grunt to its note. Other changes include a stiffer chassis with more bracing meaning this adds another 100 kgs to the LC500's weight and makes it cross a two-ton mark. There are also suspension changes to the LC500 2021 version giving you a more comfortable ride.<br/>An annoying feature that still continues is the absence of a touchscreen on the 10.3-inch infotainment system. As result, it has to be operated using the trackpad provided. You can connect to the infotainment system using the Apple Carplay and Android Auto.<br/>The Lexus LC500 Convertible more of an object of desire to enjoy and experience while you can, since electric cars are the future. You will miss cars like this when they are gone and that is not very far away. it is one of the perfect GT cruisers. I will be getting a detailed 2021 Lexus LC500 Convertible review soon.

<br/>The Koenigsegg Gemera is a €1.7 million Mega GT with a 1700 bhp and four-seater. It is a family Mega GT that is aimed to be used as a daily driver. It takes its inspiration from the very first Koenigsegg prototype which is the CC. The Koenigsegg Gemera is powered by 3 electric motors: one on each rear wheel and one on the crankshaft. The motors produce a total of 1100bhp and give 31 miles of range from the batteries. There is also the world's first 2.0L, 3-cylinder, twin-turbocharged petrol engine that produces a mind-boggling 600 bhp that powers the front wheels. The engine is able to produce so much power as a result of a free valve technology that ditches the camshaft and instead has a better control valve timing. The combined hybrid system produces 3500 Nm of torque and 1700 hp of power.<br/>https://youtu.be/lwRyLLNe97Q<br/>The Mega GT Koenigsegg Gemera has four carbon fibre seats and has a carbon fibre monocoque. It has two infotainment screens for the front and the rear passengers. It has two long doors that open up in what Koenigsegg calls Automated Twisted Synchrohelix Actuation Doors. Only 300 units will be produced of the Koenigsegg Gemera.

<br/>The Arabic word Salik roughly translates to 'clear and moving' in English, which is exactly what the Dubai RTA aims at providing the commuters with. The electronic toll road system or Salik has been designed using special RFID technology that automatically deducts a fee from the tag when a toll gate is passed under.<br/>At the outset, commuters are required to get a Salik tag. Your Traffic File Number can only be used for one Salik account and vice versa. Hence, if you have multiple vehicles registered in your name you will have just one Salik number too.<br><h2>How Do I Use Salik And What Are Its Fines?</h2><br>The Salik tag is a prepaid card that is stuck on the visible part of your windscreen. The RFID on Salik toll gates detects the tag at highway speeds after which a sum of AED 4 is deducted from your balance. In case if one drives under the Salik toll gate without a sticker, a grace period of 10 working days from the date and time of your first trip to purchase and install a Salik tag on your vehicle (or add the new tag to your existing Salik account, if you have already bought one) will be given. However, fail to do that and you will be faced with fines as follows:<br/>• AED 100 for the first trip you drive through Salik toll gates (after the 10 working days grace period)<br>• AED 200 for the second trip (after the 10 working days grace period)<br/>• AED 400 for each subsequent trip (after the10 working days grace period)<br/>• All the above-mentioned violations are limited to one violation per day<br/><h2>How Do I Recharge My Salik?</h2><br/>Your Salik account can be recharged through multiple channels. Here are a few ways:<br/>• If you have a recharge card or e-voucher you can recharge your account through 24-hr Self Service Contact Centre on 800 Salik (72545), SMS, Smart Salik App and Salik website.<br>• Auto top-ups through banks.<br/>• You can recharge using your credit card through Smart Salik app or Salik website. You can use Kiosk machines and CDM (EmiratesNBD and DIB banks) to recharge by cash.<br/>• You can also visit the Salik official website or download RTA smart apps that we discussed earlier.<br/>Purchasing a new Salik tag will cost you AED 100. This includes AED 50 for your Salik tag and AED 50 for the prepaid toll balance that will be added to your Salik account upon tag activation. If you purchased the Tag online, there will be an additional 20 AED for delivery charges.<br><h2>How Can I Avail Salik Exemptions?</h2><br/>Only vehicles registered as military, police, ambulances, school and college buses, RTA public buses and the disabled are exempted. RTA categorises disability as mental disabilities, physical disabilities, autism and visual disabilities.<br/><h2>Do I Get Exemption If I Pass Three Toll Gates In One Trip?</h2><br/>In this case, you are required to pay the fees of two crossings. For instance, the first time at Al-Garhood and the other while crossing Al Safa and Al Barsha on Sheikh Zayed road within one hour. The customer will be charged once for each direction. You are required to settle the fees at the Safa gate and Al Barsha gate only once at one gate in case of passing within one hour in the same direction<br/>It should be noted that the new Salik gate on Ittihad road and Al Mamzar gate are actually two gates on each side of the road and are very close to each other. The customer is required to settle the fees only once at 1 gate in case of passing within one hour in the same direction.</br></br></br></br></br>

Salik Road Toll System: All You Need To Know

<br/><h2>Introduction</h2><br/>The Nissan Altima has been the cornerstone of Nissan's offerings in the midsize saloon segment. From humble beginnings in 1992 to its present avatar, the Altima has come a long way. Every generation since 1992 has had something new to offer hitherto never seen in the segment. For its sixth generation, Nissan has given the globally popular sedan autonomous driving capabilities, albeit at a rudimentary level for now.<br/>2019 Nissan Altima plays the field against cars like Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, and Volkswagen Passat in UAE.<br><h2>Exterior</h2><br/>Nissan has placed its signature V-Motion grille on the Altima, dominating the car's front fascia. Headlamps and taillamps are all-LED and feature new signature DRLs for 2019. At 4,901mm, 1,850mm, and 1,447mm, the sixth-gen Nissan Altima is longer, wider, and taller than its predecessor.<br/>The sedan body type is still very much in vogue, and Nissan understands that. The Altima is cutting-edge and modern for 2019.<br/>Featuring a sleeker design than before, the 2019 Nissan Altima benefits from expressive styling built on over 25 years of heritage. Optional 19-inch wheels accentuate the sedan's purposeful stance and design. Finally, despite adopting the traditional three-box sedan silhouette, the Altima manages to be quite the eye-catcher.<br><h2>Interior</h2><br>There is a reason the Nissan Altima is one of the most popular sedans in UAE. The four-door car is roomy and airy on the inside, with a fully digital instrument cluster and touchscreen infotainment system. The instrument panel is wide, and the choice of trim lends the cabin a pleasant aura.<br/>The car features Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility, accessible via the 8-inch colour touchscreen. The seats get additional bolstering for improved holding and support. Aside from these updates, there are the usual luxury features that a car of this segment is expected to offer as standard.<br/>Nissan has bolstered Altima's seats and added new electronics to the existing package.<br/>Buyers also benefit from a full suite of Nissan Intelligent Mobility technologies. ProPilot Assist, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Warning, Radar-assisted Blind Spot Warning, High Beam Assist- all these systems are part of the package that also includes autonomous driving capability.<br><h2>Performance</h2><br>Two new engines are part of the 2019 Nissan Altima's powertrain lineup. A new 2.5-litre inline-four replaces the outgoing Altima's 3.5-litre V6, generating more power and torque.

Audi A6 2019: A Closer Look

<br/>UAE has always taken a liking to powerful SUVs with a commanding road presence. The 2019 Mercedes-AMG G63 and 2019 Range Rover Sport fit the bill perfectly in both regards. Here's a quick look at how these two SUVs stack up against each other in this five-point comparo.<br><h2><strong>Design</strong></h2><br/>The 2019 Mercedes-AMG G63 has modern performance SUV underpinnings beneath a forty-year-old design. The Mercedes-Benz G-Class made its debut in 1979 and has gone on to earn a massive cult following in its name. The German automaker has played it safe with this SUV and not touched its iconic design while bringing the interiors to modern luxury standards. If it ain't broke, why fix it?<br/>On the other hand, Land Rover has consistently upped the ante with each generation of the Range Rover, raising it from a luxurious Land Rover SUV to an off-road capable icon of British luxury. You cannot instantly point out a Range Rover Sport from its more luxurious sibling that goes without the 'Sport' badge, but the trim we are talking about here is more practical and versatile.<br/>Just point the Range Rover Sport's hood where you want to go. It will make sure you get there.<br><h2><strong>Safety</strong></h2><br>Although Mercedes-Benz has packed the G63 to its gills with the latest safety technology, the SUV still wears an old design that is not exactly the safest out there. However, you benefit from the presence of an advanced safety web of systems like ABS, traction control, tyre pressure sensors, and a total of 10 airbags. Its commanding road presence certainly helps in lesser mortals keeping away from you on the road.<br/>When it comes to safety, the 2019 Range Rover Sport ticks almost all imaginable boxes. You get ABS, traction control, eight airbags, tyre pressure sensors, and an assortment of warning and predictive systems that help you stay alert of potential hazards anywhere around the car. And you can be sure this SUV can keep you safe out in the middle of nowhere as well with its proven off-road capabilities.<br><h2><strong>Infotainment</strong></h2><br/>You can't really go wrong in this department. One car is from a German manufacturer, while the other comes from a British carmaker. For the price and position they occupy in the motoring world, they offer similarly modern infotainment options.<br/>Sumptuous interiors paired with a boxy, classic body. The Mercedes-AMG isn't just a poser.<br/>There is a 12.3-inch central infotainment touchscreen sitting atop the Mercedes-AMG G63's dashboard, from where you can access the company's proprietary COMAND control system. There is no talk of MBUX (Mercedes-Benz User Experience) making it to the G63, but we are ever hopeful.<br/>The 2019 Range Rover Sport gets a smaller 10-inch infotainment unit that interestingly has a dual-vision display. The passenger and driver can both set what they want to see on the screen without having to switch displays. Loaded with Land Rover's Touch Pro Duo, the Range Rover Sport allows you to control multiple functions from the screen.<br/><strong>Check out the latest Range Rover Sport prices and specifications in the UAE.</strong><br><h2><strong>Performance</strong></h2><br>This is where it gets difficult to choose between the two big SUVs, for both of them are solid cars in terms of performance. The 2019 Mercedes-AMG G63 gets a 5.5-litre biturbo V8 that puts down 571hp and a healthy 760Nm. It cracks the ton in a scant 5.4 seconds and tops out at 230kph. Power is fed to all four wheels through a seven-speed automatic transmission. There is just no replacement for displacement.<br/>The Range Rover Sport SVR has some serious muscle.<br/>The base 2019 Range Rover Sport starts with a 3.0-litre V6 putting down 340hp, but to go against the legendary G-Wagen, you need an equally robust engine as the German. So Land Rover equipped a 5.0-litre supercharged V8 to the top-spec Range Rover Sport SVR. This engine is good for 560hp and 700Nm. Despite having lesser power and torque, the SVR sprints to the ton in 4.7 seconds and clocks a higher top speed than the Mercedes G63 AMG at 280kph.<br><h2><strong>Pricing/Availability</strong></h2><br><strong>The 2019 Mercedes-AMG G63 in the UAE costs AED 699,950.</strong> <strong>The 2019 Range Rover Sport starts from AED 373,000 for the SE trim</strong>, going all the way to AED 625,000 for the full-spec SVR trim.<br/>For more information on the G63, head to your nearest <strong><a href="http://www.gargash.ae/">Gargash Enterprises</a></strong> Mercedes-Benz or <strong><a href="https://mercedesbenzme.com/abu-dhabi/en/">Emirates Motor Company</a></strong> Mercedes-Benz dealership. Additional information on the Range Rover Sport can be had from visiting your nearest Al Tayer Motors Land Rover showroom.<br><h2><strong>Verdict</strong></h2><br>If you want your SUV to be a classic sleeper that looks like a century-old car but can really lay skid marks alongside the best of supercars, look no further than the G63 AMG.<br/>However, if you want an SUV with elegant, contemporary looks that can take you across the world without breaking a sweat, you will take a liking to the Range Rover Sport.<br/>The quintessential SUV in every regard.</br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br></br>
