'A couple of decades ago, during one of my first trips to Shanghai, I noticed a lot of German sedans on the road. Having a German luxury sedan, or SUV nowadays, was and remains a sign of prosperity in China and the rest of the world. But there was something different about the German luxury vehicles in China. Many, if not most, carried an ‘L’ badge alongside the make and model badges.

That ‘L’ stood for long-wheelbase (LWB), a feature Chinese buyers have long preferred because these vehicles often serve as family cars, offering a little more room, particularly for second-row passengers.

One argument against LWB models has been the fact that the additional length takes a toll on the driving experience, so a few days before the X1 LWB was unveiled, BMW India sent one over for me to drive. Which might not seem like much, but it is still surprisingly good fun to drive. The power comes on when you need it, and the additional length does not make the SUV roll about when taking corners hard. '

India’s Smartphone Exports Hit a Record $9.84 Billion in Q1 FY2026-27!
India’s rise as a global electronics powerhouse is officially accelerating. Moving rapidly from local assembly to leading global exports, the Indian smartphone sector is redefining the international manufacturing landscape.
Key milestones from this historic April-June quarter include:
Historic Growth: Total smartphone exports surged to $9.84 billion, driving India’s electronics ecosystem forward.
Export Dominance: Smartphones alone captured a massive 64.8% of India's total $15.2 billion electronics export basket.
Global Footprint: The United States stands as the largest destination, securing 71% of these exports during April and May.
Fueled by strategic Government Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) schemes and global "China plus one" supply chain realignments, global giants like Apple, Foxconn, and Tata Electronics are rapidly scaling Indian operations. With full-year smartphone exports projected to touch a staggering $35 billion, India is securing its spot as a premier global technology hub.
As we look toward the future, the next big frontier is deepening local value addition moving beyond final assembly into domestic component and semiconductor manufacturing.
