What is it? The Arteon heralded a much sharper look and greater sales impetus than the old CC when it arrived in 2017. Yet its appeal was limited to a fastback body, which just couldn’t provide the practicality that many potential buyers sought. Now that issue has been resolved with the Arteon Shooting Brake, an unusually extroverted Volkswagen that combines the visual elegance of a coupé with the versatility of an estate. To the subtle design changes of the newly facelifted Arteon fastback, the Shooting Brake adds a unique rear end, comprising a longer roofline, a more tapered glasshouse, prominent D-pillars and an angled tailgate. It’s therefore only in height where the siblings differ, the fastback being 1428mm tall and the estate 1447mm. Both Arteon variants are offered here with four revised turbocharged four-cylinder engines. These are a 148bhp 1.5-litre petrol, a 188bhp 2.0-litre petrol and 2.0-litre diesels making 148bhp and 197bhp. All get front-wheel drive and, in most cases, the choice of a six-speed manual or seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. Also coming, although not until next spring, are the new Arteon R and Arteon Shooting Brake R, which run the familiar EA888 2.0-litre four-pot turbo engine, making 316bhp. However, it’s the new eHybrid driven here that’s of greatest interest to most customers. It uses the plug-in hybrid drivetrain of the Passat GTE, with a 154bhp 1.4-litre four-cylinder turbo petrol engine and a 113bhp gearbox-mounted electric motor. Energy for this is provided by a 13.0kWh battery mounted in the boot floor, yielding an electric-only range of up to 33 miles at speeds up to 87mph, contributing handsomely to official CO2 emissions of just 25g/km. What's it like? As with the Passat GTE, you can jump in the Arteon eHybrid and drive off without giving it much thought at all. Provided the battery has enough charge, it always starts and moves off silently, motivated by electrons alone. To get the best out of it, though, it pays to get familiar with the driving modes, of which there are plenty. Along with the Eco, Comfort, Normal and Sport found in all Arteons fitted with adaptive dampers, there are an extra three for the eHybrid: E-mode for electric-only running, Hybrid for a combination of engine and motor and GTE for maximum performance. Step-off and urban acceleration are reasonably strong in E-mode. And there’s next to no mechanical drag, other than when gentle regenerative braking kicks in as you go downhill. But it doesn’t take much to trigger Hybrid mode. At a sharp stab of the throttle or a prod of the touchscreen, the engine fires up smoothly. The combining of the two power sources is quite impressive, although the process isn’t exactly seamless. So configured, torque increases from 243lb ft to 295lb ft, making the car significantly livelier. The combined efforts of the engine and motor endow it with relaxed part-throttle cruising qualities and brisk acceleration when you push hard. And the engine is well isolated, adding to the feeling of heightened refinement delivered by the motor. GTE mode doesn’t increase power or torque or make the Arteon feel any quicker than it does in Hybrid mode, but it does prevent the engine from switching off and the gearbox from decoupling, giving it strong response, if not a more determined feel. Although it’s much heavier than regular Arteon models, at 1734kg, the eHybrid is entertaining to drive. Its variable-ratio steering is light but extremely accurate and gives good response when you turn it off-centre, making it easy to manoeuvre in town. It must be said that it doesn’t give a great deal of feel or feedback, though. The steering stays light on faster country roads but becomes keener, while tautening the dampers ensures the body is well controlled, with lean building progressively in cornering. This is quite a surefooted car, with grippy, dependable handling and good traction when hustled along using both petrol and electric power. The optional 19in alloys and low-profile tyres do the ride no favours, making it fidgety at lower speeds and letting bumps make themselves felt. It settles down significantly at speed, however, becoming much comfier. Inside, the updated Arteon gets a new leather wheel with capacitive controls, plusher materials, digital air-con controls and Volkswagen’s latest digital dials and infotainment.It’s at fine driving environment with excellent ergonomics and fittingly high levels of perceived quality. One key advantage the estate holds over the fastback is its flatter, longer roofline, which adds 11mm of head room up front and 48mm in the rear. Another is a bigger boot, but the extra 110 litres are lost to the battery in the eHybrid. At least you can still get 1497 litres by folding the rear bench. Should I buy one? The Shooting Brake offers a little more space than its fastback sibling without giving anything away in performance or dynamic terms. If you’re captured by its design, sometimes require lots of space and like the idea of being able to drive it as an EV, it’s well worth considering.

MMO mice call for careful design. The best gaming mouse for MMO players is one with a great and generous programmable button layout. Those buttons should be easy to reach, easy to program and feel comfortable after long hours of use. The Kaliber Gaming by Iogear MMomentum Pro mouse is an inexpensive MMO mouse that’s supposed to be made for open world competitive gameplay, but it fails to tick off some of the right boxes. Still, considering the featureset this is a decent value at $60 while being a good fit for other types of titles. This mouse will make for great eye candy on any desk. When I first opened the package, I thought the rat looked beautiful. With its wider top, its profile stands out compared to other gaming mice. The buttons all have ridges and are a slightly different texture from the rest of the mouse, which is complemented with a nice glossy finish that plays well with the mouse’s RGB. The RGB pops on this mouse, with options to light up the scroll wheel, the logo under your palm and, more visibly, around the base. Speaking of RGB, the LEDs here are very pretty and allow for the overall experience with the MMomentum Pro to feel much more customized. It was easy enough to use the software to make the MMomentum Pro match my setup. I love having a design that is sleek and simple with a pop of color, so that my area isn't all just a black space. The mouse’s build is where things fell short for me. Iogear’s MMO mouse is 4.88 x 3.15 x 1.65 inches. For comparison, the Razer Naga Trinity MMO mouse is 4.69 x 2.91 x 1.69 inches, and the Logitech G604 Lightspeed is 5.12 x 3.15 x 1.77 inches. So although I found the mouse to be a little wide, its dimensions are within decent range of competitors. The comfort issues are exacerbated, however, by the layout of the bank of four macro buttons. The MMomentum Pro’s shape made it hard for my small hands to reach the awkwardly placed four buttons. My thumb had to try really hard and got very tired very quickly when trying to access the side buttons. The four side buttons are flush with the desk, proving to be faulty design for me. Ignoring the macro bank though, the mouse was accommodating to my palm and claw grips. It let me focus on the game rather than the mouse. However, this doesn’t seem to be a mouse that’s accessible for people with chronic pain. As someone with lupus and fibromyalgia, holding my hand the way the MMomentum Pro requires became very painful after a brief amount of time. Gaming Performance of Iogear MMomentum The MMomentum Pro’s sensor specs help it compete with other gaming mice. Its PixArt PMW-3389 can handle sensitivity settings of up to 16,000 counts per inch (CPI), which is more than most mainstream gamers need, a max velocity of 400 inches per second (IPS) and up to 50 grams of acceleration. But when I fired up some MMO titles, including Final Fantasy XIV, Destiny 2 and a little World of Warcraft, the Iogear mouse didn’t meet my needs. All of the side buttons are a little too close to the bottom of the mouse. I have skinny fingers and still felt like I had to push my thumb into my desk when trying to use the side buttons. I had to bend my thumb backward to hit the number 4 button, meaning I was basically unable to use it. If you have a relevant disability or hand strength issues, using the mouse’s full set of buttons is incredibly difficult. Out-of-the-box button programming was funky. Although there are buttons south of the scroll wheel for turning CPI up or down, the side button labeled 1 is a sniper button that lowers your CPI to 100 when held. Button number 2 types the number “1,” number 3 types “2” and number 4 types “3.” Finally, the button next to the left click is set to triple-click. (You also get two traditional side buttons set to go forward and back, as well as a programmable scroll wheel in.) Obviously, you can use the software to make everything what you want, but this strange setup prevented me from just plugging in the mouse and gaming and the option of circumnavigating software altogether. Those new to MMO mice may be left very confused. On top of this, you only get 4 macro buttons, but in an MMO game you’ll generally want more slots than that. The Logitech G604 Lightspeed’s bank has six buttons, and Razer’s Naga Trinity has a bank with up to 12 buttons. Betters news comes in the form of the wheel, which has a great tactile feel for scrolling without being too bumpy. Your preference may differ, but I enjoyed this aspect of the MMomentum Pro; I find mice with bumpy scroll wheels feel clunky and more like a productivity tool than a gaming controller. This is just my personal preference though. The rubber scroll wheel also did a good job of fighting off sweat, holding up well during my gameplay and work. Generally speaking, the mouse actually did work pretty well with games outside the genre for which it was created. The sensor is as premium as most of today’s gaming mice. No matter the CPI settings I used, tracking was reliable and kept up with me. In Destiny 2, I was able to quickly and accurately hit all of my shots. The sensor for this mouse worked perfectly fine across all styles of game but specifically stood out in FPS gameplay. Plus, the sniper button comes in handy with FPS games too. The pointer’s three CPI adjustment buttons work in conjunction with the RGB so you know which of the 5 programmed settings you’re using. The buttons are perfectly placed so I never accidently hit them and, yet, they are super easy to reach.

Intel has officially launched its Iris Xe Max discrete graphics card for laptops (previously known as DG1), revealing the full details of the GPU and how it performs with 1080p gaming – and how it leverages tech to make a powerful combination with Intel CPUs that have integrated Xe graphics. Intel Iris Xe Max boasts 96 EUs (Execution Units) and it’s clocked at 1.65GHz, supporting LPDDR4x graphics memory, with initial laptops loaded with 4GB of the stuff (with a memory bandwidth of 68GB/s). Best laptop games: 20 titles that won't melt your machine Best 17-inch laptop: top large screen laptops for your money Check out all the best processors Those initial laptops – which will be available from today – include the Acer Swift 3x, and the Asus VivoBook Flip TP470, alongside the Dell Inspiron 15 7000 2-in-1. All of these notebooks have not just Intel Iris Xe Max GPUs, but Tiger Lake 11th-gen mobile CPUs with Xe integrated graphics – and both Xe graphics solutions can work in tandem with a new feature Intel is calling Deep Link. Deep Link refers to the way in which these Xe-toting CPUs and GPUs are, well, linked together in order to maximize performance, and how power usage can be adjusted between the processor and graphics card. Deep Link’s dynamic power sharing means that when the GPU isn’t in use, that power can be piped to the CPU instead, offering up to a 20% performance boost for the processor versus a laptop with an Nvidia MX350 GPU, Intel claims. Deep Link promises a major boost in content creation workloads, and also with video encoding. We’re talking 7x faster AI-based creation (again compared to a laptop with a similar CPU but Nvidia MX350 graphics) according to Intel’s testing, and encoding is almost 1.8x faster than RTX 2080 graphics, no less. Game on But what about games? Intel’s Iris Xe Max makes a good fist of 1080p gaming on thin-and-light laptops, generally outperforming an MX350-equipped notebook – and in some games, beating the Nvidia chip by a fair way. Intel’s benchmarking indicated a big win for Iris Xe Max in Metro Exodus, with the GPU hitting around 42 frames per second (fps), compared to around 29 fps for the MX350. GRID 2019 managed around 46 fps with Intel, compared to 37 fps for the MX350, but the other games tested were pretty much a dead heat (Gears Tactics, Hitman 2, The Witcher 3). And in Borderlands 3, the MX350 was actually slightly ahead, but only by a few frames per second – nothing that you’d realistically notice. Going by Intel’s testing, it would seem that Iris Xe Max is the equal of Nvidia’s MX350, and actually outguns the latter considerably in a couple of titles, which is pretty impressive. Nvidia’s MX350 might be its entry-level GPU for laptops, but it is the most recent model from 2020 (albeit based on Pascal tech, two generations away from Ampere now). All of those 1080p game benchmarks were conducted with either medium or low graphics details, incidentally. Of course, we have to bear in mind that these are Intel’s own internal tests, which could be cherry-picked to an extent, and we’ll want to do our own testing to gauge the power of Iris Xe Max graphics to get the full picture of gaming performance. In its announcement, Intel also revealed that an Xe-LP graphics card will be coming to value desktops in the first half of 2021 – meaning a DG1 for budget desktop PCs. Furthermore, the chip giant told us that Xe-HPG, the heavyweight gaming card which was officially powered on recently, will be out in 2021 as expected (not likely until the end of the year, though).

What is it? The Mercedes-Benz rollout of plug-in hybrid models continues apace. This, the GLE 350de, is a big SUV. Of the 10 SUVs Mercedes currently offers, it and the GLE Coupé sit around seventh and eighth in the size rankings, below only the GLS and G-Class. Although it’s a big SUV, it’s five-seat only (pure internal-combustion GLEs can have seven seats) on account of the fact that it has a 31.2kWh battery (with a usable capacity of 23.4kWh) beneath the boot floor. At the front, a 134bhp electric motor assists a 192bhp 2.0-litre four-cylinder diesel engine in providing four-wheel drive. What's it like? Running on electric only, this relatively big battery gives more than a token range, at 61.5 miles officially. We saw around 60 on a cold grey day. It can charge at up to 22kW, which replenishes the battery in an hour. It’s the sort of versatility that will make cars like the GLE an attractive idea – especially with a CO2 figure of 29g/km – for those who can charge overnight or at work in daily running and retain more oomph for family life. A towing limit of 2700kg is enough for a big horse trailer. The drivetrain operates rather pleasingly and seamlessly. There are different drive modes, from fully electric through to battery preservation, in case you want to retain your charge for use later. In hybrid and EV modes, steering wheel paddles adjust the amount of regenerative braking you get, from mild coasting all the way through to relatively heavy braking; although because the car always ‘creeps’ like a conventional automatic at low speed, there’s no true one-pedal driving. And once you’ve understood those modes, and the charging, the 350de operates just like any other GLE. There’s great fit in the cabin, although some metallic plastics that are more obviously plastic than the metal they’re trying to look like, and a hugely comprehensive infotainment layout that you’ll finally work out how to use just as the lease deal finishes. Should I buy one? The driving experience combines a pleasing steering system and a ride that ripples a little on rough surfaces but is for the most part extremely composed and refined.

My vote for DH1 , nice song , rhythm

A keyboard that’s fit for an office doesn’t have to look boring. The Varmilo MA108M Moonlight offers the best of many worlds. You get a polished design with a pop of fun, and the new EC Sakura V2 electrostatic capacitive mechanical switches (yes, more mechanical switches -- we’ll explain) tested here offer a smooth experience that we appreciated for both work and gaming. But at $157, this is an expensive, high-end mechanical keyboard. And unlike many of the best gaming keyboards, which tempt with bonuses like per-key RGB, onboard memory and reprogrammable keys, the MA108M Moonlight doesn’t have a lot of features. And we have some complaints about the features you do get. The MA108M Moonlight’s top plate is plastic, which surprised me due to the keyboard’s premium price tag. But the dark plastic is carved with subtle engravings that make it look like a piece of wood. It also helps the keycaps stand out, and for good reason. Varmilo successfully does a delicate dance of colors, uniting an old-school gray with a darker one and tossing in some teal ones that’ll make you feel young again. The keycaps are PBT plastic and said to be 1.3mm thick. There’s a gentle texture on the light gray keys that’s slightly rougher on the darker gray ones and especially rough on the teal ones, particularly the spacebar. You wouldn’t note the small differences there by looks alone. As expected with PBT, these keycaps look pristine and remain fingerprint-free no matter how much you type. The keycaps’ font is a little thick but clearly legible. It may be too much for some, but I love the classic look, which is partially due to the dye sublimation process, where the writing is created by sinking dye into a laser engraving on the keycaps, staining it. You can’t feel the writing, and it won’t fade. Less favored, though, are the keys in the upper-right corner. They launch (from left to right) in Windows: the VLC player, your web browser, calculator and the This PC menu. There’s no way to reprogram those keys, so I’d much rather have a set of dedicated media keys. Varmilo also made an interesting choice in cutting the dedicated Menu button; instead you have to hit FN and right Ctrl, as the subscript reminds you. Living in the Menu button’s typical spot is a right FN key, and where the right FN key typically is, is a second Windows key. It’s a small issue that I barely noticed in use (as long as I have a right FN key I’m fine), but if it annoys you, it’ll annoy you even more to know the keys aren’t reprogrammable. The solution is to swap the left Windows key and FN key by holding down FN and the left Windows key. The MA108M Moonlight’s MicroUSB to USB Type-A cable is detachable and goes into the right side, which could make it harder or easier to keep out of the way, depending on your setup. You get flip-out feet that bring the keyboard up about 0.8 inches, which felt about as high as it could get without becoming uncomfortable. Varmilo gave the MA108M Moonlight white backlighting, but it has an uneven look bleeding out from underneath the keycaps and is pretty dim from a top view, where the lighting looks the heaviest above the bottom row. Varmilo includes additional Caps, Scroll and Num lock keycaps with space in the keycap to make the backlighting more visible. It’s pretty essential for being able to tell if the light for these functions is on, (and that’s whether or not the backlight is activated). You can set the white lighting to a solid or breathing effect. The controls, however, aren’t intuitive, as there's no markings on the keyboard. You toggle through the different settings by holding FN and the right arrow key. When in solid lighting mode, FN and up or down increases brightness, and when in breathing mode, FN and up or down change the speed of the effect. To turn off the backlight, you have to leave the arrow keys and hit FN and X. Electrostatic Capacitive Mechanical Switches: Varmilo’s EC V2 Line You can get this keyboard with Cherry mechanical switches by opting for the Varmilo VA108M version (note the V starting the model number instead of an M). It’s selling cheaper than our review unit at $149-$154, depending on the switch. But the MA108M Moonlight we’ve tested comes with one of Varmilo’s three homebrewed EC V2 electrostatic capacitive mechanical switches, the EC Sakura V2, EC Rose V2 or EC Daisy V2. This is the same kind of technology used in Topre switches, which are very po[CENSORED]r among some enthusiasts and expensive to find in keyboards. The difference with Varmilo’s switches is that they don’t use a tactile rubber dome or cone-shaped spring. Instead, they have a spring and plastic slider, like Cherry switches. While the EC Rose V2 targets gamers and the EC Daisy V2 fights typing fatigue, Varmilo markets the EC Sakura V2s we tested for office and daily use and to those who like linear Red switches. This may be surprising, as linear switches are often preferred by gamers (all three EC V2 switches currently available are linear). However, I found the MA108M Moonlight keyboard much more enjoyable for typing than other mechanical keyboards I’ve used with linear switches.

As more organizations have turned to the cloud to store their documents and other important files, managing cloud storage costs and reducing the risk of overspending has become critical in today's changing business environments. In order to help protect business data and lower the total cost of ownership (TCO) within Google Cloud Storage, Google has made two new Object Lifecycle Management (OLM) rules available to its customers. Many organizations that leverage OLM protect their data against accidental deletion using Object Versioning. However, storage capacity and monthly charges associated with old versions of objects can grow quickly without the ability to automatically delete versioned objects based on their age. We've put together a list of the best business cloud storage services These are the best cloud backup services on the market Also check out our roundup of the best backup software solutions For this reason, Google has introduced its new non-current time condition which allows customers to filter based on archive time and use it to apply any or all lifecycle actions that are already supported such as delete and change storage class. Now Google Cloud Storage customers can set a lifecycle condition to delete an object that is no longer useful to them, thus reducing their overall TCO. Custom timestamps Google's second new cloud storage feature is the ability to set a custom timestamp in the metadata field to assign a lifecycle management condition to OLM. Up until now, the only timestamp that could be used for OLM was given to an object when writing to the cloud storage bucket. However, the object creation timestamp may not actually be the date an organization cares about the most. For instance if an organization migrated data to Google Cloud Storage from another environment, it may want to preserve the original create dates before the transfer. Users can now set a specific date and time and apply lifecycle rules to objects with all existing actions, including delete and change storage class being supported. Business running applications such as cloud backup and disaster recovery can benefit from this new feature by preserving the original creation date of an object when ingesting data into Google Cloud Storage. Google's new Object Lifecycle Management rules are now generally available and could be quite useful to organizations that want to continue using the company's cloud storage service without running up a massive bill each month. We've also highlighted the best cloud storage services

What is it? With the exception of the Jimny, whose presence in the UK range became as embarrassing for emissions-conscious executives as it was endearing to the man or woman on the street, Suzuki’s passenger car line-up is now exclusively electrified. Quite some achievement, and it all happened in the blink of an eye, with mild-hybrid powertrains rolled out to the Ignis, Swift, Vitara and S-Cross in the space of just a few months. The most ‘electrified’ of all the Japanese marque’s models, however - if you’ll permit such a clumsy superlative - is this: the Across, and it may not have escaped your notice that it’s not really a Suzuki at all. The first badge-engineered car to be born from a new agreement between Suzuki and Toyota, the Across is all but identical to the RAV4 on which it is based, save for the addition of a less aggressive front end, bespoke wheel designs and a smattering of Suzuki badges. More interesting, though, is that the Across takes its power from a new four-wheel-drive plug-in hybrid powertrain that has yet to be rolled out to European RAV4 models and that makes its debut Autocar appearance here. Comprising a 173bhp 2.5-litre petrol four-cylinder mated to a pair of electric motors - one with 180bhp on the front axle and another with 54bhp at the rear - the system endows the Across with 302bhp, making it Suzuki’s most powerful production car by nearly 200bhp and giving a 0-62mph sprint time of just 6.0sec. The economy statistics are equally eyebrow-raising: the Across can manage 46 miles of electric-only travel from a charge, achieves a combined 282mpg, emits just 22g/km of CO2 and - crucially - attracts a benefit-in-kind rating of just 6%, undercutting the Ford Kuga PHEV, Citroën C5 Aircross Hybrid and Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. One final headline figure, then: £45,999. That’s what you’ll pay for this one-trim-only SUV, which slots it straight in at the higher end of the segment, making it a far cry from the brand’s other, more value-oriented models. Elsewhere, things are somewhat more familiar. The cabin is lifted directly from the RAV4, meaning there’s a 9.0in infotainment touchscreen with hybrid-specific displays, a nice chunky Tonka-toy-style gear selector and just the right amount of buttons, knobs and switches. What's it like? Two years since it first hit UK roads, this quirkily styled bodyshell still stands out in a crowded car park, and Suzuki’s subtle tweaks haven’t diminished its visual clout. A slatted grille reminiscent of the cutesy Ignis and Jimny might have helped it blend in on a Suzuki forecourt, but critics of the RAV4’s heavily creased visage will no doubt be swayed by the Across’s slightly softer and more rounded approach. A bit more differentiation inside wouldn’t have gone amiss, though. You’ll find the same dark, featureless frontage in versions of the RAV4 costing more than £10,000 less (albeit with a bit less leather), and when the Across is priced some way above the rather more design-led Peugeot 3008 and Volvo XC40 PHEVs, you’d expect the odd bespoke flourish here and there, or maybe a bit more chrome at least. Close your eyes, however, and it’s a fine place to spend time. The leather seats are supportive and comfortable over long distances, the physical controls are intuitively placed and satisfying to prod and poke, and all-round visibility is good despite those chunky C-pillars. Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are standard fitments, as you might expect of a car in this price bracket, but it’s difficult to excuse the omission of something as mundane as sat-nav, especially when Toyota’s own system could have been carried over wholesale, potentially even with added functions like a charge station locator for this new plug-in model. Not that the Across is likely to ever be charged as a matter of urgency, of course. Battery charge mode - one of four powertrain combinations available - shuts down the electric motors and uses energy recuperated under braking and deceleration to top up the 18.1kWh battery, and does so quickly enough that you could probably get away without installing a charger at home. Unless, of course, you’d rather conduct the daily commute in EV mode and leave the combustion motor for the weekends, in which case you can expect a full charge in 2.5 hours from a three-pin plug. That might be the ideal driving balance, too, given the competence of the electric element of this powertrain. Take-up is smoother than its headline-grabbing acceleration figures would suggest, the silence doesn’t make way for excessive amounts of wind noise and tyre roar, even towards its 84mph limit, and the official range figure is pleasingly realistic. It’s a shame it’s not even greater, really, because the combustion element is let down, as is so often the case with Toyota’s otherwise slick systems, by its CVT gearbox. Driving around in hybrid mode, you might not even notice the petrol motor taking over from its zero-emission team-mate, such is the seamless nature of the transition, but you’ll soon realise when the droning of that single-ratio transmission discourages you from approaching the upper reaches of the rev range. Not that the Across is actively unpleasant to drive in any sense. Gearbox gripe aside, the overall package is one of well-rounded dynamics and pleasing ride quality. Cornering behaviour won’t trouble the best in class, with the low-mounted battery pack failing to quite compensate for the unavoidable fact that the Across tips the scales at nearly two tonnes, but urban ground is covered smoothly enough to gloss over that substantial heft, excusing the odd thunk and jolt. An honourable mention should go, too, to the decent-sized boot (complete with low load lip), roomy rear seats and plethora of storage cubbies. This is a near-faultlessly practical proposition. It’s just a shame your fleet manager might take some persuading. Should I buy one? If you can reconcile yourself with the idea of a near-£50,000, 300bhp-plus Suzuki, there’s little to be disappointed about here. Although faintly uninspiring inside, the Across is (just) plush and distinctive enough to justify price parity with cars like the Land Rover Discovery Sport P300e, straight-line performance is at a level way beyond what you might expect of something in this segment, and its 46-mile electric-only range gives it a considerable edge over the majority of rival plug-in hybrid SUVs. Suzuki has already said that availability will be “extremely limited” during the model’s first year on sale, so you’ll need to act fast. However, our experience of the Across suggests that if you end up missing the boat, the RAV4 Plug-in will be equally appealing, not to mention likely cheaper in lower-rung trims.

Neha Kakkar and Rohanpreet Singh tied the knot on October 24, 2020. For the occasion, the bride wore a pale pink Sabyasachi lehenga. Turns out, Kakkar’s bridal lehenga was gifted by the eminent designer himself. In an Instagram post, the 32-year-old singer wrote, “People die to wear #Sabyasachi at least once in life and we were gifted these dream outfits by Sabyasachi himself. Dreams do come true but they work better if you work hard. Thank you Mata Rani, Shukar hai WaheguruJi.” The Garmi singer’s lehenga was embellished with zardosi and meenakari accents. She accessorised the look with signature heritage jewellery, made with “uncut diamonds, emeralds and pearls, set in 22k gold,” the designer mentioned. Rohanpreet, who was also gifted his “dream” wedding outfit — a pale pink quilted silk sherwani — thanked the designer in another Instagram post. “Thank you #Sabyasachi Sir for gifting us these amazing outfits,” he wrote alongside his wedding picture. The sherwani was accessorised with “strands of cultured Japanese pearls from the Sabyasachi heritage jewellery collection.”

I can solve this problem by giving advice to both of them at first, after that we will analyze the source of the problem together, then, we will find a reasonable solution that satisfies both of them, to let them back working again like nothing happens. 3- Well, i will try to explain you from my knowledge not from google and copy-paste. For me, there is 3 type of leaders. * First One "a leader that follows his work step by step" this type follow the smallest steps that his team are doing, he always give advises to his team just to reach a good results. and to be honest i love this type of leaders. * Second one "Arrogant Leader" to be honest, this is the wrost type. because he consider his team just objects that complete his work. most of time this type of leaders are lazy, they don't even do something except criticizing other teams work. and when the time comes to take a serious decision, you realize that they are weak on that one. * Third One " A leader that inspire and motivate his team" This type try to give a positive signe to push his team giving and reaching the best rules. he play the coach mental, he try always to let his team think positivly and that a good caractere for a leader.
