Oh, I think they are trying to say that “we had combi-brakes [CBS] since 2009, whereas others are going to have from 2019 due govt mandate”

Also the front suspension Honda uses on Activa, Activa-i, Dio, Navi and Cliq became obsolete in 2009

So Maruti Suzuki car configurator shows Swift with a rear disc brake.

Such a blunder by the top most manufacturer of India.

So this isn't a blunder then, it's actually nice and compels the reader to read the full script.

I think most automotive portals/news channels are always in a rush to outdo competitors and post comparos, reviews, image galleries for the 'new kid on the block' - ergo the bloopers and (sometimes) blunders.

There's an adage in Hindi - "Hadbadi ka kaam shaitaan ka" literally translated to "If it is rushed, it is the Devil's way of working"

On a side note, the Honda combi-brake ad was good though.

Honda introduced the CBS in 2009 but the TVS Ntorq, which currently is the TVS flagship doesn't get it! So this ad clearly is clever. I wish though that Honda offered Disc brakes in the top variant of the Activa 5G

Wonder how difficult it is to run a spell check by the ad company before printing a front page ad in the news paper. That too Mercedes.....

Overdrive has the below for the figo launch scoop, apparently figo has been elevated to a segment above the usual.

The Figo competes with Hyundai i20, Maruti Suzuki Baleno and Honda Jazz. The Figo has found it difficult to compete with these established rivals, notwithstanding its good powertrains and dynamic package. This facelift will help bridge that gap to a certain extent.

Maybe the technical guys wanted to rehearse the live streaming process as well

You missed the point, read the caption, it talks about best in class power. They are trying to depict the affect on trees when a Verna passes by.
