The Geely GX3 Pro ranks #7 in Panama in November.

New light vehicle sales in Panama are up 10.8% year-on-year in November in what is traditionally the slowest month of the year at 4,255 units. The year-to-date tally is up 9.7% to 54,257 units. Toyota (+10.9%) matches the market but has to contend with 17.2% share vs. 19.3% so far this year. Kia (-3.6%) goes against the positive market but climbs back to the 2nd spot it holds year-to-date, passing Hyundai (-35.8%) in a rut. The next seven carmakers are all in positive, 6 of them with double-digit gains. GAC Motors (+104.8%) fares the best at #10, followed by Geely (+62.4%) up to #4, Jetour (+57.6%), Nissan (+47.7%), Changan (+43.1%) now #9 YTD, and Mitsubishi (+19%). Only Suzuki (+1.6%) disappoints. Below, notice Dongfeng (+165.8%), Kaiyi (+93.9%) and BYD (+79.3%) in the remainder of the Top 20. Newcomer Soueast advances to #25.

Over in the models ranking, the Kia Soluto (+33.8%) is crowned the best-seller this month, followed by the Toyota Hilux (+17.3%) up two spots on October to #2 and last month’s leader the Hyundai Grand i10 (-24.7%). The Toyota Yaris Cross (+24.8%) is down one rank to #4 while the Kia Picanto (-24.5%) rounds out the Top 5. Strong performance by the Mitsubishi L200 (+32.1%) at #6 vs. #13 over the Full Year 2024. The Geely GX3 Pro scores its first Top 10 finish since we started following Panama a few months back and is joined by the Geely Coolray. The Changan CS35 Plus points its bonnet at #10.

Thailand October 2025: Toyota Yaris Ativ snaps pole position, sales up 13.3%

✇Best Selling Cars Blog
By:Matt Gasnier
16 December 2025 at 08:47

The Toyota Yaris Ativ holds 10.6% of the Thai market in November.

The Thai new light vehicle market jumps up 13.3% year-on-year in October to 46,050 sales. The year-to-date volume adds up to 510,838. Atop the brands charts, Toyota (+3.8%) and Honda (+4.4%) both trail the market to a still strong 38.3% and 11.2% share respectively. Isuzu (-23%) and Mitsubishi (-5.3%) fare even worse with negative results. It’s below that things start heating up. BYD is up 72.8% to 4.8% share, however this is a far cry from the 11.9% it hit last June and the 7.1% it commands year-to-date. MG is up 73.7% to #6, GAC Aion up 474.8% to #7 and Changan up 426.6% to #8. Tank is the best performer at +1581.5% (!) to #10 its second ever incursion inside the Thai Top 10.

Model-wise, the Toyota Yaris Ativ (+43.2%) soars to 10.6% share vs. 8.9% so far this year and takes advantage of a weak month from the Toyota Hilux Revo (-12.1%) to snap the overall pole position. Note the Hilux Revo is winding down in the wake of the arrival of the new generation Hilux Travo. The Isuzu D-Max (-21.6%) has another mediocre month and relinquishes the 2nd spot YTD to the Yaris Ativ. The Toyota Yaris Cross (+5.8%) and Honda City (-11.2%) round out the Top 5. The MG 4 (+188.3%) and Honda Civic (+13.9%) also beat the market in the remainder of the Top 10. The GAC Aion UT (#11) is the best-selling recent launch above the Changan Deepal S05 (#13).

Previous month: Thailand September 2025: Changan (+366.5%), GAC Aion (+251.2%) shoot up in positive market

One year ago: Thailand November 2024: BYD Dolphin up to #6

✇Best Selling Cars Blog
By:Matt Gasnier
16 December 2025 at 07:59

A long awaited facelifted Proton Saga is about to hit the Malaysian market.

80,490 new light vehicles found a buyer in Malaysia in November, a solid 7.3% year-on-year increase. The year-to-date tally stands at 689,766. Homegrown behemoth Perodua (+1.1%) only edges up but manages a share superior to its YTD level at 42.4% vs. 41.9%. Proton (+22.2%) impresses at #2 with 18.6% of its home market, distancing Toyota (+2.1%) and Honda (+6.1%) both trailing the market. BYD (+229.2%) surges ahead to break into the Malaysian Top 5 for the first time at #5. Chery (+137.3%) is also in outstanding shape whereas the entire remainder of the Top 10 drops by double-digits, with Jaecoo (-41.4%) and Mercedes (-27.4%) the hardest hit. Below, Haval (+322.9%) and Tesla (+20.8%) stand out just as iCar cracks the Top 20 for the first time at #19.

Over in the models charts, the Perodua Bezza (+2.2%) remains in its traditional first place with a dominant 12.4% share vs. 11.9% YTD. Just below, the Proton Saga (+37.5%) surges again to repeat at an excellent 2nd position with 9.7% share, thanks to promotions on the outgoing generation. The Perodua Axia (-7.8%), Myvi (+0.2%) and Alza (+17.3%) camp on their September rankings from #3 to #5. Excellent showings also by the Proton X50 (+32.3%) and Toyota Hilux (+21.3%).

Previous month: Malaysia September 2025: Proton Saga up to #2

One year ago: Malaysia October 2024: Perodua Bezza back to #1, Jaecoo J7 up to #11

Bentley Flying Spur Speed has claimed a new winter lap record after conquering an ice-covered circuit in northern Sweden. The luxury performance sedan completed the 2.05-mile Drivecenter Arena track in Fällfors in 2 minutes 58 seconds, setting the fastest recorded lap on the frozen surface.

Bentley Flying Spur Winter Lap Record Scaled

Located around 100 miles from the Arctic Circle, the former military airbase was blanketed with nearly 12 inches of ice and snow. Despite the extreme conditions, the Flying Spur Speed reached a top speed of 120 mph during the record run.

The car used was a production-spec Flying Spur Speed, running on studded 21-inch winter tyres. Bentley credits the car’s variable four-wheel-drive system and rear-wheel steering for maintaining stability and agility on the low-grip surface. Notably, the run was completed with all electronic stability systems switched off, highlighting the underlying mechanical capability of the platform.

Powering the Flying Spur Speed is Bentley’s Ultra Performance Hybrid setup, pairing a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 producing 600 PS with a 190 PS electric motor. Together, the system delivers a combined 782 PS and 1,000 Nm of torque. The plug-in hybrid setup also allows the sedan to travel up to 47 miles in pure electric mode, thanks to a 25.9 kWh battery.

The record-setting car was finished in Brooklands Green, complemented by a Linen and Cumbrian Green interior. This specification mirrors a classic Bentley Turbo R from the brand’s heritage collection, marking the 40th anniversary of the iconic model.

Alongside the Tank 700’s regional launch, GWM confirmed that its Hi4 intelligent four-wheel-drive hybrid system will be introduced to Middle Eastern and African markets in 2026. Developed for demanding conditions, the Hi4 system is engineered to deliver confident performance across diverse terrains and extreme environments, reinforcing the Tank brand’s off-road-focused identity.

The automaker also used the launch event to preview its next-generation 4.0-litre turbocharged V8 engine platform, underlining its commitment to high-performance powertrains for future SUVs. In addition, GWM showcased an off-road grading system designed to clearly define vehicle capability levels, ranging from urban use to hardcore, professional off-roading.

The Tank sub-brand continues to gain momentum globally. The Tank series is now sold in more than 30 countries, with cumulative global sales crossing 800,000 units. In the Middle East, the Tank lineup has already made a strong impact, with GWM stating that the Tank 500 leads the mid-to-large SUV segment in Qatar.

Beyond sales, GWM highlighted the growing Tank community worldwide, with nearly 80 owner clubs and over 300 online communities, reflecting the brand’s increasing appeal among off-road enthusiasts.

Toyota has completed a major upgrade of its Arizona Proving Ground, strengthening the facility’s capabilities for vehicle development, validation and third-party testing. Located near Wittmann, around 60 miles northwest of Phoenix, the site now features a new 5.5-mile oval track, expanded off-road testing zones and a dedicated noise pass-by area for evaluating vehicle sound emissions.

Toyota Adas Arizona Proving Ground Scaled

The newly added oval has been built within the existing 10-mile high-speed loop and is designed for mileage accumulation, stop-and-go testing and vehicle dynamics evaluation. Toyota has also rebuilt the north straight of the original oval into a dog bone straight course, supporting advanced vehicle testing, including ADAS calibration and validation.

As part of the upgrade, the dog bone layout incorporates a 1.75-mile coast-down section, enabling precise efficiency and fuel economy measurements. The proving ground has also received an improved 1.5-mile ride and handling track, with repaving of the vehicle dynamics pad planned as the next phase of development.

Since 2021, the Arizona Proving Ground has been open to third-party rentals and long-term testing residencies, operating as the Arizona Mobility Test Center under Intertek Transportation Technologies. This model allows automakers, suppliers and technology companies to access Toyota’s extensive test infrastructure.

Established in 1993, the Arizona Proving Ground spans approximately 11,650 acres and now offers 77 miles of testing surfaces. These include 60 miles of paved roads, more than 50 miles of off-road and dirt tracks, and the newly added oval, positioning the facility as one of the most comprehensive vehicle testing hubs in North America.

According to data by the CAAM, Chinese wholesales in November edge up 3.4% year-on-year to 3,429,000 units. This means year-to-date volumes are up 11.4% to 31,127,000. Passenger Cars are up 1.2% to 3,037,000 for the month and up 11.5% to 27,256,000 year-to-date. For their part Commercial Vehicles surge 24.4% to 392,000 in November and are up 10.4% to 3,870,000 year-to-date. New Energy vehicle sales are up 20.6% to 1,823,000. BEVs soar 28.9% to 1,170,000 while PHEVs are up 7.9% to 652,000. Year-to-date, NEV sales are up 31.2% to 14,780,000 with BEVs up 41.2% to 9,515,000 and PHEVs up 16.4% to 5,261,000.

In the brands charts, the medium-term trend we have observed continues: BYD (-35%) is in deep trouble whereas #2 Geely (+33.5%) powers ahead to a new all-time record monthly volume above 210,000 units. “Surviving” BYD models include the Sealion 05 (+56.1%) and Dolphin (+3.8%) with the new Sealion 06 above the 25,000 monthly sales mark for the 4th straight month in 5 months of activity and the new Seal 05 cracking the 20,000 sales milestone for the first time. The Song Plus (-80.5%), Han (-72.4%), Tang (-69.7%), Seagull (-61.2%), Song L (-59.1%), Qin L (-47.4%), Song Pro (-37.1%) and Seal 06 (-32.5%) are all hit hard. In contrast, in the Geely corner the Xingyuan is up 109.8% to over 42,000 sales while the Galaxy New Energy range is up 82.8% to 63,688. The Boyue SUV is also very impressive at +138.4%.

Voyah cracks the 20,000 monthly sales milestone.

Illustrating the current heavy difficulties on foreign manufacturers in China, Volkswagen plunges -22.4% and Toyota drops -13.6%. Wuling edges up 4.6% to remain in 5th place while Tesla (-0.5%) is stable year-on-year and up 19 spots on October to #6 vs. #9 so far this year. Chery (-21.3%) struggles at #7 ahead of a solid Nissan (+13.2%). Encouragingly, this is Nissan’s 6th straight month of year-on-year upticks. After breaking its all time monthly volume record for the past 6 consecutive month, Leapmotor (+56.9%) takes a breather but still manages its 2nd best ever volume, above 60,000 units. Audi (+4.7%) closes the Top 10 out with a small gain. Xiaomi (+99.7%) continues to stun, albeit down two spots on last month to #14. Fang Cheng Bao (+314.1%) is the winner of the month, breaking into the Top 20 for the first time at #18 and delivering a third consecutive record month, above 35,000 sales. Voyah (+84.3%) also passes an important milestone at over 20,000 units for the first time (#29).

Looking at the models ranking in isolation, the Wuling Hongguang Mini EV (+63.2%) manages a third win in a row but remains in 2nd place year-to-date below the Geely Xingyuan (+109.8%) itself down one rank on last month to #3. Following a particularly poor score in October, the Tesla Model Y (+5.7%) rallies back up 15 spots to land in 2nd place, most importantly reclaiming the SUV crown off the new Xiaomi YU7 down from #5 last month to #6 in November. The Nissan Sylphy (+16.5%) and BYD Qin Plus (-3.9%) round out the Top 5, with the latter being the only BYD model in the Top 10 (there are 6 in the Top 17). The Tesla Model 3 (-10%) also returns inside the Top 10 at #9 vs. #113 in October. The new BYD Sealion 06 ranks #11, the Fang Cheng Bao Tai 7 is at a record 12th place, the BYD Seal 05 cracks the Top 30 for the first time, landing at #14.

Mercedes-Benz Starts Series Production of Second-Gen eActros 400

Mercedes-Benz Trucks has started series production of the second-generation eActros 400 at its Wörth plant in Germany, expanding its electric heavy-duty lineup ahead of a wider rollout of new EV truck variants from late 2025. The latest model shares its foundation with the larger eActros 600, already in production since 2024, and will be offered both as a tractor unit and a flatbed chassis.

Daimler Truck Eactros Production Worth Plant Scale

Unlike the eActros 600, which carries three battery packs, the new eActros 400 features two battery packs, targeting operators who require a lighter, more versatile configuration. Customers will also be able to select from two cab options, adding flexibility for different business needs.

Mercedes-Benz Trucks continues to dominate the electric heavy-duty segment, holding nearly 50% market share in Europe during Q3 2024. The company’s manufacturing strategy is becoming more streamlined as well—the eActros 400 is now fully built on the existing A-series assembly line, where electric trucks and diesel models roll out side by side. This marks a major shift from the first-generation eActros, which was electrified separately at the Future Truck Center.

Key components for the new electric truck come from Daimler Truck facilities in Mannheim, Kassel and Gaggenau, including the electric axle, transmission parts, and a front box containing high-voltage and low-voltage systems.

2024 and 2025 Mexican data is now available for Geely.

The Mexican new light vehicle market edges down -0.4% year-on-year in November to 148,361 units, but the year-to-date tally is up 1% to 1,370,056. Nissan (+0.6%) stays on top of the brands charts with 17.6% share, distancing Chevrolet (-4.6%). November is decidedly a great month for Mazda: after breaking all its records a year ago, the Japanese brand does it again this month, climbing to a record third place with an all-time high 13,810 sales and 9.3% share. Volkswagen (-3.6%), Toyota (-4.3%) and Kia (+2%) all drop one spot on October to #4, #5 and #6 respectively. Great performers in the remainder of the Top 10 include Hyundai (+12.5%) and Ford (+8.3%) but MG (-45%) is hit full frontal. This month Geely sales data becomes available (also retroactively for 2024): the Chinese carmaker ranks #14 with 2.3% share (+245.4%). We also welcome Soueast and the retour of Jetour in the charts.

Model-wise, Nissan places the Versa (-9.3%) at #1 and the NP300 (+3.8%) at #2, the latter advancing to third place year-to-date as it passes the Kia K3 (-1.4%). The Chevrolet Aveo (-19.2%) is in a rut but stays at #3. Excellent showings for the Mazda CX-30 (+56.1%), Hyundai Creta (+50.8%), Renault Kwid (+48.8%) and Chevrolet S10 (+35.4%). The Nissan Magnite remains the most popular recent launch at #14 above the Geely EX5 at #40 and the VW Tera at #52.

Previous month: Mexico October 2025: Highest market in 9 years, Chevrolet S10 at highest ranking

One year ago: Mexico November 2024: Highest market in 8 years, Mazda breaks all records

BMW 3 Series Marks 50 Years and Prepares for All-Electric Next Generation

✇Indian Autos Blog

12 December 2025 at 13:41

The BMW 3 Series has completed an impressive 50-year production run, with more than 18 million units built across 18 plants in 13 countries since its debut in 1975. The iconic sedan remains one of BMW’s most important global models, anchoring the brand’s manufacturing network for five decades.

Bmw 50 Anniversary 3 Series

Today, the seventh-generation 3 Series is produced in Munich, Shenyang (China), San Luis Potosí (Mexico), and regional facilities including Chennai, Rayong, and Araquari. BMW is gearing up for the next chapter, with the fully electric eighth-generation model scheduled to begin production in Munich in late 2026 on the automaker’s Neue Klasse platform.

Production began at BMW’s Munich plant in 1975, and by 1982 the second generation introduced a groundbreaking fully automated body shop, achieving over 90% automation with industrial robots. As demand grew, manufacturing expanded to Plant Dingolfing in 1980 and Plant Regensburg in 1986.

The 3 Series also played a major role in BMW’s global expansion. Production began in Rosslyn, South Africa in 1984 and later in Spartanburg, USA in 1994. Since Regensburg opened, the 3 Series has served as the launch model for nearly every new BMW plant, including Spartanburg, Leipzig, San Luis Potosí and the BBA joint venture in China.

Looking ahead, BMW confirmed that production of the eighth-generation 3 Series will expand to China and Mexico, with Plant Dingolfing also set to rejoin the manufacturing network, reinforcing the model’s long-standing global footprint.

India November 2025: Tata Nexon threepeats at #1 in market up 18.7%

✇Best Selling Cars Blog

The Tata Nexon is the best-selling vehicle in India for the 3rd straight month.

After smashing its monthly volume record in October, the Indian new wholesales market continues on its exceptional momentum in November with deliveries up another 18.7% year-on-year to 417,495. This the 2nd highest monthly volume in Indian history below last month. Once again, responsible for this great result is the introduction of a new GST structure (GST-2.0), which cut tax on entry-level cars from around 28% to 18%. Year-to-date volumes are up 4% to a record 4,126,144.

The Top 3 carmakers all beat the market with Maruti Suzuki up 21% to 41% share vs. 39.5% so far this year, Tata up 22% to reclaim the #2 spot for the second time in the past three months, and Mahindra up 21.9% to #3. Hyundai (+4.3%) is a lot more shy and is now in danger of losing the #3 year-to-date position to Tata, whereas it ranked #2 over the Full Year 2024. Other great performers include Citroen (+140.5%), Skoda (+90.3%) and Renault (+30.3%).

Over in the models charts, the Tata Nexon (+46.4%) scores a third consecutive win, distancing the YTD leader the Maruti Suzuki DZire (+79%). The Maruti Suzuki Swift (+33.9%) is also in great shape, up seven spots on October to #3. The Mahindra Scorpio (+22.9%) and Tata Punch (+21.5%) also outpace the market in the remainder of the Top 10. The Maruti Suzuki Victoris is the best-selling recent launch at #13, well above the Skoda Kylaq at #34.

Tata Sierra Sets New India Record with 29.9km/l Fuel Efficiency Run

✇Indian Autos Blog
By:IAB Team
12 December 2025 at 11:41

The Tata Sierra has officially entered the India Book of Records after achieving an impressive 29.9km/l fuel efficiency during a certified 12-hour run at the Natrax proving ground in Indore on 30 November 2025. The test was conducted by the Pixel Motion team, who drove the SUV continuously from 7am to 7pm, pausing only for quick driver changes, surpassing the previous national benchmark for long-duration efficiency.

Tata Sierra

Powering this record run was Tata’s new 1.5-litre Hyperion petrol engine, a unit built around an advanced combustion system and friction-optimised architecture designed to maximise thermal efficiency. Alongside the efficiency test, the Sierra also completed a parallel top-speed run, clocking 222km/h under controlled conditions at Natrax. However, Tata confirmed that customer vehicles will be electronically limited to 190km/h for safety and durability.

Tata Motors emphasised that the tests were carried out in a controlled, supervised environment by trained drivers, and urged customers not to attempt replicating such driving behaviour on public roads.

With this achievement, the Sierra strengthens its position as one of Tata’s most technically advanced models, showcasing the capabilities of the upcoming Hyperion engine platform.

Vietnam November 2025: VinFast breaks record again, Limo Green #1 with 14.2% share

✇Best Selling Cars Blog

12 December 2025 at 09:59

The VinFast Limo Green is by far the best-selling vehicle in Vietnam in November.

Based on data by local association VAMA and Hyundai, new vehicle sales in Vietnam sink -17.8% year-on-year in 44,801 units. The year-to-date tally is now up just 2.1% to 375,184. This month once again we have access to exclusive figures by local manufacturer VinFast, which sends the overall market to 67,987 for the month and 522,634 year-to-date. 

After passing the 20,000 monthly unit-mark for the first time in October, VinFast breaks its monthly record again in November to a fantastic 23,186 sales. Toyota (-11.1%) limits its fall to stay at #2 ahead of Hyundai (-47%) completely imploding, Ford (-2.6%) and Thaco-Kia (-29.6%). Mitsubishi is stable.

The VinFast Limo Green brilliantly takes the lead of the models charts with a stunning 14.2% share and for its 4th month in market. It distances the YTD leader the VinFast VF 3 ahead of the VF 5 and VF 6. As a result, the Limo Green climbs from #18 to #6 year-to-date. The Mitsubishi Xpander (-7.8%) is the best of the rest above the Mitsubishi Xforce (+20.8%) and Ford Ranger (-9.6%).

Morocco November 2025: Renault (+100.5%) catches up on Dacia (+56.9%)

✇Best Selling Cars Blog

12 December 2025 at 09:19

Renault sales double year-on-year in November.

The Moroccan new light vehicle market delivers an 11th consecutive month of 20%+ year-on-year growth in November at +36.5% to 21,603 units. In the detail, Passenger Cars are up 37.9% to 19,193 units while Light Commercials gain 26.5% to 2,410. This month’s growth has a lot to do with the Top 2 brand’s performance: indeed Dacia is up 56.9% to 25.5% share while sister brand Renault (+100.5%) simply doubles its sales to reach 22.5% share, simply its highest since we started following Morocco monthly back in January 2022. The rest of the Top 10 trails the market, with Audi (+21.8%) and Skoda (+17.9%) the best performers and Opel (-36.9%) and Hyundai (-16.8%) faring the worst. New for the month, Deepal lands directly at #17 with 1% share, with the next best-selling recent launches being Chery (#19) and Soueast (#20). We also welcome Leapmotor (#31) and Lynk & Co (#42).

Indonesia November 2025: BYD Atto 1 confirms instant best-seller status

The BYD Atto 1 confirms its status of instant best-seller in Indonesia.

New vehicle wholesales in Indonesia have stabilised in November at -0.1% year-on-year to 74,252. Due to a mediocre start of the year, the year-to-date tally remains in frank negative at -9.5% to 710,084. Retail sales for their part are actually up 4.3% to 79,310 for the month but down -8.3% to 739,977 year-to-date.

Toyota (-19.8%) is in deep trouble but still manages a 29.1% market share vs. 31.5% so far this year. Daihatsu (+16.5%) posts a very strong result but is down one percentage point on its YTD share at 15.7% vs. 16.7%. After reaching a record 14.3% share last month, BYD (+233.6%) is down slightly to a still tremendous 12.8% due to one single model as we’ll see further down. The Chinese carmaker more tham triples its sales year-on-year. Isuzu (+25.3%), Mitsubishi (+22.3%), Suzuki (+8.9%) and Mitsubishi Fuso (+5.4%) are also strong below whereas Honda (-63.9%) collapses. Retail-wise, Toyota (-6.2%) contains its loss ahead of Daihatsu (+5.3%), BYD (+191%) and Mitsubishi (+15%).

Over in the wholesales models charts, the new BYD Atto 1 (aka Seagull or Dolphin Mini/Surf) confirms its spectacular arrival in the Indonesian market with a second straight win at above 10% share, this time 11.2%. This is a really momentous event and by far the most successful launch in the country ever. Leader year-to-date, the Toyota Kijang Innova (-24.3%) is back up one spot on October to #2, bypassing the Daihatsu Gran Max Pikap (+9.3%). The Toyota Avanza (-34.4%) is in difficulty at #4 while the Suzuki Carry Pikap (+31.4%) rounds out the Top 5 like last month. Strong runs by the Daihatsu Gran Max Minibus (+946.6%), Toyota Raize (+56.9%) and Rush (+20.7%).

Previous month: Indonesia October 2025: BYD Atto 1 lands directly at #1 with 12.7% share

One year ago: Indonesia November 2024: Toyota Avanza signs first win in over 2 years

Kia has officially unveiled the second-generation Seltos, introducing a major redesign for one of its most important global SUVs. Revealed during an online world premiere themed “The Protagonist,” the new Seltos grows in size and sophistication, now measuring 4,430 mm long, 1,830 mm wide, 1,600 mm tall, and riding on a 2,690 mm wheelbase to deliver enhanced interior space.

2026 Kia Seltos

The SUV adopts Kia’s bold Opposites United design philosophy and arrives with three powertrain options:

  • 1.6-litre turbo-petrol in two states of tune – 180 PS or 193 PS
  • 2.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol producing 149 PS

Inside, the new Seltos packs a stronger premium punch with dual 12.3-inch displays, a panoramic sunroof, and a generous 536-litre boot. Buyers can also opt for all-wheel drive with terrain modes for snow, mud, and sand, enhancing its light off-road credibility.

Safety and driver assistance see a significant upgrade too, with Highway Driving Assist 2, Lane Following Assist 2, and Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist 2 now part of the package.

A hybrid variant is confirmed for 2026, equipped with Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) capability and Kia’s latest Smart Regenerative Braking System 3.0.

Production of the new Seltos begins in December 2025 in India, followed by market launches in Korea, North America, Europe, and China through 2026.

Cold Weather Is Secretly Destroying Your Car Battery, Avoid These 5 Mistakes

✇Indian Autos Blog
By:IAB Team
11 December 2025 at 10:41

Cold mornings can quickly turn into a nightmare when you try to start your car and the engine just won’t turn over. In freezing temperatures, your battery has to work much harder to deliver the power needed to start the engine (often with less capacity than usual), often leaving drivers stranded at the worst possible time.

The cold does more than make you shiver, putting serious strain on your car's electrical system. Kazimieras Urbonas, Supplier Excellence Manager at Ovoko, one of Europe's largest online marketplaces for used car parts, sees the impact firsthand through increased demand for replacement batteries during colder periods.

“Whenever temperatures drop significantly, we notice a spike in battery-related enquiries,” says Urbonas. “Drivers often don't realize how much cold weather affects their car's power system until they're stuck with a dead battery.”

With over 23 million parts available across Europe, Ovoko connects thousands of auto dismantlers and recyclers with drivers who need reliable replacements. Here, Urbonas shares his expertise on the five biggest battery drains during cold weather and practical ways to avoid getting caught out.

The 5 Things That Drain Your Battery Faster in Cold Weather

  1. Cold Temperatures Slow Down Battery Chemistry

Your car battery’s biggest enemy is temperature. At 0°C, a battery's power output drops by up to 20%, and things get much worse as it gets colder. At -17°C, your battery can lose a staggering 40-50% of its strength.

“Think of your battery like a person trying to run through treacle,” explains Urbonas. “The chemical reactions that create electricity literally slow down when it's cold. Your battery is working twice as hard to deliver the same amount of power.”

This means your engine needs more effort to turn over, while your battery has less power to give. It's a perfect storm for a flat battery.

  1. Heating Systems Working Overtime

Your car's heater, demister, and heated seats might keep you comfortable, but they're absolute power-hungry monsters. Each system draws significant electricity from your battery, especially when the engine isn't running, or during short trips.

“Heated seats can draw 3-5 amps each, while your heater blower on full blast uses another 10-15 amps,” says Urbonas. “Add in your demister and rear window heater, and you're looking at a serious drain on your battery's reserves.”

The problem gets worse because you're more likely to use all these systems at once when it's cold, creating a perfect storm of power consumption.

  1. Short Journeys Don't Give Your Battery Time to Recover

Your alternator needs time to recharge your battery after starting the engine. Short trips to the shops or school run don't give it enough time to top up what was used during startup.

“Starting your engine can use 100-200 amps in just a few seconds,” explains Urbonas. “Your alternator needs at least 20-30 minutes of driving to replace that power fully. If you're only driving for 10 minutes, you're slowly draining your battery with each trip.”

This creates a downward spiral where each short journey leaves your battery a little weaker than before.

  1. Electronics Left Plugged In

Dashcams, phone chargers, sat navs, and other gadgets might seem harmless when plugged in, but they create what's called “parasitic drain”. Even when your car is off, these devices can slowly sip power from your battery.

“A dashcam might only draw 0.1 amps, but over a week of being parked, that adds up,” says Urbonas. “In cold weather, when your battery is already struggling, even small drains can push it over the edge.”

  1. Old or Weak Batteries Struggle More

If your battery is already past its prime, cold weather will expose its weaknesses fast. Most car batteries last around 3–5 years, but freezing temperatures speed up the decline by slowing chemical reactions and increasing internal resistance.

“An older battery simply can’t deliver the same power as a fresh one,” explains Urbonas. “If your battery has already lost some of its capacity, cold weather will make that loss far more noticeable. That’s when you start to see symptoms like slower cranking or dimmer headlights, which are clear signs it’s time for a replacement.”

How to Prevent Cold Weather Battery Drain

Urbonas lists several tips to help your car’s battery avoid the negative effects of the colder weather:

  • Keep Your Battery Warm: Park in a garage when possible, or consider a battery blanket for extremely cold conditions. Even a few degrees warmer can make a big difference to battery performance.
  • Limit Electrical Use on Short Trips: “Try to avoid using heated seats, full-blast heaters, and other heavy electrical loads during short journeys,” advises Urbonas. “Save the luxury features for longer drives when your alternator has time to keep up.”
  • Unplug Accessories: Remove phone chargers, dashcams, and other accessories when you park. These small drains add up over time.
  • Take Longer Drives Regularly: Make sure you take your car on longer journeys regularly. At least 30 minutes of driving at highway speeds gives your alternator time to properly recharge the battery.
  • Get Your Battery Tested: Have your battery tested before cold weather hits. Most auto parts stores will test it for free, and it's much cheaper than a roadside rescue.
  • Consider a Trickle Charger: If your car sits unused for days at a time, a trickle charger can maintain your battery's charge without overcharging it.

“The trick is to be proactive,” says Urbonas. “Don't wait until you're stranded to think about your battery's health.”

Kazimieras Urbonas, Supplier Excellence Manager at Ovoko, commented:

“Most drivers don't realize that small changes in their daily habits can add years to their battery's life, especially during cold weather. Something as simple as unplugging your phone charger or combining short trips into one longer journey can make a huge difference to your battery's longevity.

“Through my work with thousands of auto parts suppliers across Europe, I've seen how preventable most battery failures really are. The drivers who check their battery connections, avoid unnecessary electrical loads, and replace aging batteries before they fail completely rarely find themselves stranded.

“What surprises many people is that a battery struggling in cold weather often shows signs for weeks beforehand, such as slower engine cranking or dimmer headlights. By the time your car won't start, the problem has usually been building for a while. With proper care, most batteries can handle cold weather just fine.”

First Top 20 finish for the Mitsubishi Colt.

23,008 new cars hit Austrian roads in November, a fantastic 20.5% year-on-year improvement. The year-to-date volume is now up 13.1% to 262,602. Volkswagen (+46.8%) plays a big role in the market’s overall rise, climbing to 16.8% share vs. 14.4% so far this year. This is the carmaker’s highest share since May 2024. Skoda (+3.9%) is more modest in 2nd place while BMW (-3.6%) actually falls. Hyundai (+119.6%) shoots up 10 spots on last month to #4. Seat (+63.4%) and Dacia (+21.8%) also shine in the remainder of the Top 10. In contrast Cupra (-23.7%) and Tesla (-7.7%) disappoint. BYD is up 64.3% to #14.

Model-wise, the Skoda Octavia (-7.2%) stays on top despite going against the positive market. It is followed by three Volkswagens: the Golf (+20.4%), Polo (+145.9%) and Tiguan (+29.5%). The new Dacia Bigster is back inside the Austrian Top 5 for the third time and breaks into the YTD Top 20 at #18. Below the BMW X1 (+4.8%), the Mitsubishi Colt (+542.6%) – a rebadged Renault Clio – scores its first Top 20 finish, landing directly at #7. The Hyundai i10 (#11) and MG ZS (#12) also impress.

Mercedes-Benz CLA Leads Euro NCAP’s Final 2025 Crash Test Round with Five Stars

✇Indian Autos Blog

11 December 2025 at 10:32

The Mercedes-Benz CLA has wrapped up 2025 on a strong note, securing a five-star Euro NCAP safety rating in the organisation’s final assessment round of the year. Tested in both electric and petrol formats, the four-door coupé impressed with 94% adult occupant protection, 89% child safety, and 93% vulnerable road user protection, reaffirming Mercedes’ focus on safety across powertrains.

Euro Ncap Mercedes Benz Cla

Euro NCAP’s December results delivered a wave of top performers. The Mazda CX-5, Deepal S05, Porsche Cayenne, Volkswagen T-Roc, and Hyundai Nexo all earned five-star ratings, contributing to what the agency notes as its highest number of vehicles tested in a single year.

Among the highlights, the Mazda CX-5 matched the CLA with 93% vulnerable road user protection, while the Deepal S05 posted an impressive 94% adult occupant score. The hydrogen-powered Hyundai Nexo also stood out, becoming only the third hydrogen vehicle tested by Euro NCAP and securing 90% adult protection.

Euro NCAP further emphasised the growing role of optional safety tech. The Kia EV4, for instance, received four stars with standard equipment but achieved five stars when equipped with the optional DriveWise ADAS Safety Pack.

Meanwhile, four-star ratings went to the Alpine A390, Jeep Compass, Kia PV5, Toyota Aygo X, and Toyota Yaris. Euro NCAP has confirmed that new testing protocols will roll out from 2026, raising the bar for safety standards even further.

Norway November 2025: Tesla hits 31.2% share in record market

✇Best Selling Cars Blog
By:Matt Gasnier
11 December 2025 at 06:47

The Tesla Model Y holds 18.3% of the Norwegian market in November.

The Norwegian new car market in November is boosted by fears of lowered VAT floor to NOK 300,000 (US$29,700) on new electric cars by January 1st. Overall sales are up a whopping 70.2% year-on-year to 19,899 units, the largest November volume in Norway’s history. Year-to-date volumes are up 25.5% to 144,362. BEV sales are up 77.6% to 19,427 and 97.6% share vs. 93.6% a year ago and up 34.2% year-to-date to 137,887 and 95.5% share vs. 89.3% over the same period in 2024. Meanwhile HEVs are off -42.5% to 161 and 0.8% share, PHEVs edge down -1.3% to 152 and 0.8% also, diesel is at 0.7% share and petrol at 0.1%. For the first time, 4×4 share surpasses 80% and 80.6% vs. 76.8% a year ago.

Tesla shoots up 175.2% to 6,215 sales and 31.2% share, its best result since March 2023 (7,899 and 40.8% share). Thanks to year-to-date sales up 34.6% to 28,606, Tesla has already beaten the annual brand sales record previously detained by Volkswagen in 2016 (26,572). Volkswagen (+35.7%) trails the market to 11% share vs. 12.9% so far this year but Volvo (+178.2%) also stuns to 9.4% share vs. 7.9%. This means the Top 3 carmakers hold over 50% of the market (51.6%). Kia (+149.3%), Hyundai (+82.4%) and Ford (+75.9%) also impress in the remainder of the Top 10. Of note, there are no Chinese brands among the 10 best-sellers, with Xpeng (+113.3%) at #11 and MG (+698.4%) at #12. Polestar is up 138.8%, Mazda up 893.8%, Renault up 191.4% and Zeekr up 1950%.

Model-wise, the Tesla Model Y is up 144.7% to 18.3% share and is now just 540 sales away from breaking the annual model sales record it currently holds (23,088 in 2023). The Tesla Model 3 (+235.3%) holds the 2nd spot and reaches 12.9% share, its highest since September 2024. The Volvo EX40 (+462%) stays on the podium, distancing the VW ID.4 (+18.1%) and ID.7 (+59.5%), both disappointing in context.

Mercedes-Benz has partnered with autonomous driving specialist Momenta to develop a Level 4 robotaxi service based on the new S-Class, with the first phase scheduled to begin in Abu Dhabi. The project will be operated by Lumo, a mobility subsidiary of UAE tech company K2, marking a major step toward commercial autonomous ride-hailing in the region.

The advanced operating system of the new S-Class is the backbone of this driverless service, offering processing power and integration capabilities required for Level 4 automation. After the testing phase in Abu Dhabi, Mercedes-Benz aims to expand the service to other global markets.

K2 has already secured federal approval to deploy autonomous vehicles in the UAE. As part of the rollout, Lumo will begin operating S-Class robotaxi test vehicles on public roads in Abu Dhabi before transitioning to full commercial service.

This initiative adds to Mercedes-Benz’s broader autonomous strategy, which includes multiple Level 4 projects targeting both private customers and commercial mobility solutions. The company is also evaluating further partnerships, including potential collaboration on a robotaxi ecosystem built around Nvidia’s Drive AV platform.

Globally, Mercedes-Benz continues to strengthen its leadership in automated driving. It is the first international automaker authorized to conduct Level 4 testing on designated urban roads and highways in Beijing, using S-Class prototypes equipped with a suite of sensors including lidar, radar and high-resolution cameras.

Ferrari Middle East has unveiled the all-new 849 Testarossa at the exclusive Casa Ferrari event held at Yas Links Golf Club, coinciding with the Formula 1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix weekend. Marking its regional debut, the flagship supercar drew Ferraristi and guests for a first look at Maranello’s latest hybrid masterpiece.

Ferrari 849 Testarossa Abu Dhabi

Replacing the SF90 Stradale, the 849 Testarossa is a plug-in hybrid berlinetta that pairs a mid-rear twin-turbo V8 with three electric motors, producing a combined 1050 cv. It now sits at the top of Ferrari’s performance lineup, delivering extreme acceleration while maintaining ride comfort and cabin refinement.

At its core is Ferrari’s award-winning twin-turbo V8, now fitted with the largest turbocharger ever used on a Ferrari production model, enabling unprecedented throttle response and power delivery. The hybrid system—with one motor at the rear and two on the front axle—adds 220 cv, enhancing traction, responsiveness and efficiency.

Ferrari engineered the vehicle dynamics to offer higher performance with improved consistency and accessibility, ensuring drivers experience both precision and excitement without compromise.

Design-wise, the 849 Testarossa blends futuristic styling with cues inspired by Ferrari’s heritage. Sculpted surfaces meet sharp graphic elements, while the interior focuses on ergonomic improvements and smart use of space.

Casa Ferrari, held annually during the Abu Dhabi GP, serves as a luxurious hub for the region’s Ferrari community—a fitting stage for the Middle East arrival of Ferrari’s newest and most advanced supercar.

Citroën has revealed the Elo concept, a compact 4.10-metre electric vehicle designed as a multi-purpose living space that adapts to rest, work and play. The concept will make its global debut at the Brussels Motor Show on 9 January, showcasing a highly flexible interior aimed at modern urban lifestyles.

The Elo features a 100% electric platform with a standard four-seat layout and a centrally positioned driver’s seat that looks out through a wide 180-degree windscreen. Two additional seats can be deployed, allowing the vehicle to carry up to six occupants. The driver’s seat can also rotate 360 degrees, converting the cabin into a social or workspace environment.

For overnight stays, the interior transforms into a sleeping setup for two, using inflatable mattresses made from Decathlon’s Dropstitch material. Citroën designed the Elo as a configurable space that can switch from mobility mode to lounge, office, or entertainment zone within minutes.

The concept was developed in collaboration with Goodyear and Decathlon. Goodyear created Eagle Xplore tyres equipped with SightLine technology for real-time pressure and wear monitoring, while Decathlon contributed materials and design expertise inspired by outdoor and sports activities.

Kia PV5 Cargo has secured a five-star rating in the 2025 Euro NCAP Commercial Van Safety assessment, placing it among the safest electric commercial vans on European roads. The model achieved 75% for occupant protection, 80% for safety assist and crash avoidance, and 80% for post-crash safety, reinforcing its strong safety credentials.

The recognition adds to the PV5’s growing list of global accolades, including the 2026 International Van of the Year title and honours at the BBC Top Gear Awards.

Euro NCAP commended the PV5 Cargo for its robust suite of standard ADAS features. Its autonomous emergency braking (AEB) system, paired with forward collision warning, performed impressively—reacting effectively at higher speeds and avoiding impacts in most pedestrian and cyclist tests.

The lane support system also received notable praise for providing timely steering corrections and more assertive interventions to prevent unintended road departure. Additionally, a speed assistance system integrates digital mapping with a forward-facing camera to identify speed limits and relay them clearly to the driver.

Stellantis & Bolt Join Forces to Roll Out Level 4 Robotaxis in Europe

Stellantis and Bolt have announced a major partnership to develop and deploy Level 4 autonomous vehicles for commercial ride-hailing across Europe. Pilot trials are scheduled to begin in 2026, with production of the first autonomous models targeted for 2029.

Stellantis And Bolt Scaled

Under the collaboration, Stellantis will supply its AV-Ready Platforms, including the eK0 medium-size van and STLA Small architectures. These platforms are engineered for large-scale autonomous use, featuring integrated sensor systems, high-performance computing, redundancies, and safety-focused hardware designed to meet stringent European regulations. Stellantis says the setup also lowers total cost of ownership for fleet operators—an essential factor for mobility services.

Bolt, which operates in over 50 countries and 23 EU member states, plans to integrate these autonomous vehicles directly into its ride-hailing ecosystem. The partnership supports Bolt’s long-term goal of having 100,000 autonomous vehicles on its shared mobility platform by 2035.

The rollout will follow a phased pathway, starting with prototypes, moving into pilot fleets, and finally scaling up to full production. Both companies will closely coordinate with European regulators on testing, certification and controlled deployment.

Renault Group and Ford have entered a major strategic partnership to co-develop two all-new Ford-branded electric vehicles, built on Renault Group’s Ampere platform. Production is planned to begin in early 2028 at Renault’s ElectriCity facility in northern France, strengthening Europe’s growing EV manufacturing ecosystem.

Renault Group And Ford Ev Partnership 1184x592

Designed by Ford and engineered in collaboration with Renault Group, the upcoming electric models will feature distinct Ford driving dynamics and brand identity, marking the start of a renewed EV push for the American automaker in Europe. The alliance allows Ford to tap into Renault’s advanced EV architecture and established manufacturing network, helping accelerate its rollout of next-gen electric passenger vehicles.

The agreement goes beyond passenger EVs. Both brands have also signed a letter of intent to explore joint development and manufacturing of light commercial vehicles for Europe. The move aims to combine Ford’s long-standing expertise in vans with Renault’s deep experience in compact and midsize commercial platforms.

If finalised, the commercial vehicle collaboration could see shared platforms, streamlined production, and enhanced competitiveness across both brands in one of Europe’s most important segments.
