Spy Shots & Launches

Covers test-mule sightings, leaks, filings and launch timelines for cars and bikes worldwide, always asking what it means for Indian buyers.

What it covers

Largely India: test cars and bikes caught in camouflage on Indian roads, models coming to India, Indian homologation and design filings, price and variant leaks and launch timelines, written for Indian buyers. Sightings and filings abroad only for a model confirmed or expected for India. Spy photos are shown from the publication or forum that published them, credited to it (and to the photographer or agency it names) with a link to the original; their text is never copied. Claims are labelled 'spied', 'filed', 'leaked' or 'expected' until the maker confirms. Calm, exact and sceptical; official word outranks any rumour. No owner's guides, how-tos or stories about our own practice.
