India’s agricultural machinery industry is entering a new phase of mechanisation, with harvesting equipment gradually moving beyond its traditional strongholds in Punjab, Haryana and western Uttar Pradesh. Combine harvesters, once associated mainly with large wheat farms, are now being adopted across paddy, maize, soybean, mustard and other crops. The expansion of custom-hiring businesses, government support and crop-specific machinery is also making mechanised harvesting acc

The Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut has added another list of performance records. The Swedish hypercar completed the standing quarter-mile in just 8.54 seconds, crossing the line at an astonishing 305 km/h—or 190 mph. Koenigsegg also continued the run through the half-mile mark, where the Jesko Absolut recorded a time of 12.76 seconds at 373 km/h, or 232 mph.

With fuel prices continuing to influence car-buying decisions, CNG vehicles remain one of the most practical choices for Indian customers looking for low running costs. Factory-fitted CNG cars have become especially popular because they offer better integration, warranty support, improved safety, and greater peace of mind compared to aftermarket conversions. The Indian car market recorded ~47 lakh unit sales in FY2026, of which ~10.14 lakh units were CNG vehicles. The key gro

Cars are not just metal, tyres and horsepower. The most memorable ones usually have a personality. Some look like predators. Some behave like wild horses. Some attack corners like snakes. Some are calm, dependable elephants in city traffic. That is why the internet loves visuals that match famous cars with animals — Lamborghini with a bull, Ferrari with a horse, McLaren with a falcon, Shelby with a cobra, Bugatti with a cheetah, and so on. But this is not just a design trend.

JSW Group has formally signalled its intent to enter India’s rapidly expanding electric bus industry after participating in a recently concluded central government tender for 6,230 electric buses.
