Lamborghini Veneno

The Lamborghini Veneno hit the scene to a relatively lukewarm reception at best, but the lack of media and enthusiast frenzy sure didn’t stop it from planning a roadster version. The new Veneno Roadster was unveiled this past weekend, and there are few differences between it and the coupe model.
The typical roadster has a top that the driver can raise and lower at his demand, but the Veneno is no typical car. Instead, Lamborghini opted to hack the top off altogether.
In terms of overall design, the Veneno Roadster looks nearly identical to its coupe brother, so it retains that crazy exterior look, with exception to it lack of a roof.
Unlike the coupe versio, which was limited to just three units, Lamborghini will limit the new Veneno Roadster to nine units. Each will carry a price tag of $4.5 million.
Update 12/2/2013: The $4.5 million Veneno recently made its public debut in Abu Dhabi. The venue for the unveiling was something out of a Hollywood movie scene. That would be, an aircraft carrier. "We are honoured that Lamborghini was chosen to represent the Italian car industry in the UAE, as a perfect example of iconic Italian super sports cars, and that we have the opportunity to show the Veneno roadster for the first time in Abu Dhabi," said Lamborghini boss Stephan Winkelmann during the press conference.

KTM X-Bow R

I t’s three years since bike manufacturer KTM branched out into cars, launching the X-Bow at the 2008 Geneva motor show. More than 500 brave drivers have been found to buy the X-Bow, ensuring the project has survived the recession and brought further evolution. Which brings us to this: the 2011 X-Bow R, an even faster version of the sports car. It’s a similar, pared-back two-seater, only this time the X-Bow R brings an uprated version of the Audi 2.0-litre four-cylinder. It’s the turbocharged TFSI engine, boosted to 296bhp and 295lb ft of torque. That’s more than in the donor Audi S3 and TT-S, which produce no more than 268bhp. Thank a larger turbocharger, reprogrammed Bosch engine management and new fuel injectors. And the engine changes are just scratching the surface of a series of upgrades to build this fastest ever KTM with four wheels. So the KTM X-Bow R is quicker than most Ferraris? Yes. Prod the throttle and the R simply flies towards the horizon. Ther...

7 sarcastic rule for Indian Roads

On Indian roads, traffic laws are optional art forms. A red light signals a race, zebra crossings are floor décor, and honking is the official language. Driving here isn’t about discipline but about improvising like a street performer—survival demands sharp reflexes, blind faith, and a generous dose of sarcasm. 1 After all, why fix behaviour when you can sell accessories with a green signal? On Indian roads, rules are a comedy show. You cannot use earphones while riding a two-wheeler—it’s unsafe, they say. But a Bluetooth helmet? Oh, that’s perfectly fine! Because clearly, music and calls become safer when delivered through an overpriced helmet. As if the rider’s focus magically improves when the voice in their head comes from a “government-approved” gadget. Meanwhile, the same rider weaves through potholes, dodges cattle, and squeezes between buses like it’s an action stunt. Road safety here isn’t about logic, it’s about loopholes. After all, why fix behaviour when you can sell acces...
