Every time you take a domestic flight and don't have to break a fixed deposit to buy a ticket, you have Captain GR Gopinath to thank. In 2003, he  launched Air Deccan, India's first budget airline.  Before that, only the rich and powerful could afford to fly. So, planes were like mini 5-star hotels – you would be waited on hand and foot, would have access to luxurious lounges, get served gourmet food. And of course, it came with an outrageous price tag to match. With Air Deccan, flying was finally democratised. And soon enough, others followed. Everyone wanted to copy the Air Deccan playbook. Cut to now. The only successful airline in India at the moment have followed the budget route, with Indigo as the market leader. On the surface, things look great. India is home to the third largest domestic aviation market by volume. Domestic passenger numbers have more than doubled in the last decade. In June alone, more than 13 million people flew domestically. But if everything is going right behind the scenes? Then why is the flying experience getting so bad? Tune in. Why do women freeze their eggs? Take the survey here.Don't forget to send us your recommendation for this Thursday's Unwind segment.

Airline seats have been getting smaller and smaller over the years. It's all about fitting more people in and maximizing profits for the airlines. Plus, with the rise of budget airlines, they're all about squeezing as many seats as possible onto each plane. And let's not forget about those fancy new slimline seats—they might look sleek, but they're not exactly comfy. So yeah, it's a combination of airlines wanting to pack in more passengers and save on costs that's led to our current cramped flying experience. #brightside Animation is created by Bright Side. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Music from TheSoul Sound: https://thesoul-sound.com/ Listen to Bright Side on: Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/0hUkPxD...

Overview The 2023 Volkswagen Taos rolls into its second model year.  And maybe it's just us.  Because we're paying close attention.  But it feels like the subcompact five-seat crossover SUV has been around longer. Sporty and bold.  Classy and sophisticated.  Affordable and practical.  These are all accurate descriptions of VW's smallest available SUV. ⇒ Check out Ontario VW Taos Inventory Subcompact 5-seat crossover SUV New For 2023 Volkswagen Taos Taos comes in three trims and each one of them gets more content for 2023.  Coming standard across all trims is VW's front assist, blind spot monitor, and rear traffic alert.  The S trim, the base model with 4Motion, gets 18-inch wheels.  While the SE trim receives driver assistance tech standard - VW's IQ.Drive.  And the top trimmed SEL gets a standard panoramic sunroof added. 2023 Volkswagen Taos Trims And Pricing We continue loving Volkswagen's straightforward trims and pricing.  Sure you can still spec out your Taos how you like.  But Volkswagen has a habit of thoughtfully adding features to each trim level.  And in a logical fashion. 2023 VW Taos trims & starting MSRPs S $24,155 SE $28,925 SEL $34,535 Engines And Transmissions Keeping it easy and straightforward.  Volkswagen plants the same power into each Taos.  And with similar transmissions. It's a 1.5-liter turbocharged inline four-cylinder engine.  Putting out 158 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. For the transmissions, they're both smoothing shifting automatics.  The front-wheel drive Taos gets an 8-speed automatic.  And the all-wheel-drive gets a 7-speed auto. So that leaves you with the decision of FWD or AWD.  And in the case of Volkswagen, AWD is called 4Motion. Fuel Economy Ratings Taos delivers the expected and respectable fuel economy for an internal combustion engine subcompact crossover SUV.  With EPA ratings between 25 and 32 mpg. MPG Rating FWD 28/31/36 AWD 25/28/32 *City/combined/highway The curb weight for the 2023 Volkswagen Taos depends on your configuration.  But it's coming in between 3,181 and 3,437 lbs. 158 hp/184 lb-ft torque 2023 Volkswagen Taos - What's It Look Like? Taos looks unmistakably like a European crossover SUV.  And like the rest of the Volkswagen crossover sport-ute lineup, a quick glance can be deceiving.  Because that can and does leave you thinking Audi.  This is a nice compliment because that's Volkswagen's luxury sibling.  And always costs an easy 30% more across all comparisons - minimum. With that said the 2023 Volkswagen Taos looks like a small Volkswagen crossover sport-ute.  Because, like almost every carmaker these days, the SUVs they're making are small, medium, and large versions of one another.  And in some cases, both extra small and extra large too. Exterior dimensions Wheelbase 105.9 to105.5 Track: front 61.8 to 61.9 rear 60.9 to 60.5 Length 175.8 Width 72.5 Height 65.4 to 65.1 Ground clearance 6.4 to 7.6 *All inches Inside The 2023 Volkswagen Taos Taos seats up to 5 passengers in its two rows of seating.  And inside Taos is where Volkswagen's engineering is often most appreciated.  Because that's when drivers and passengers are closest to it.  And for the longest periods of time.  So unlike gazing at the outside, we get to experience the inside to a much greater degree. And VW's fit and finish are remarkable.  Even in the subcompact Taos.  From the materials being used to the intersections of them, it's reliably solid. For example, even the inside of the center console of the Taos we test-drove had a smooth finish with quality materials.  And that is attention to detail we love. Interior dimensions Headroom 40.7/39.8 Shoulder room 56.5/55.2 Legroom 40.1/37.9 *All inches front/rear Cargo volume for the 2023 VW Taos comes in at a highly respectable 27.9 cubic feet with the backseats up.

The 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan delivers stylishly good looks.  A spacious and well-designed interior.  Plus a spirited experience behind the wheel. Adding, impressive technology and creature comforts create a solid value proposition.  Making the SUV a must-test drive for anyone shopping for a compact. And Tiguan offers something most compacts in its class do not.  An optional third row of seating.  Accommodating up to seven passengers. ⇒ iDSC's VW dealer is Ontario Volkswagen! 2023 VW Tiguan Top-3: Styling Interior Driving 2.0L inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine What's New For 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan? The 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan is marking the second model year since being refreshed.  Bringing this model year's Tiguan four trim options.  Plus minor aesthetic tweaks.  And, for the SE R-Line Black trim, new 19-inch wheels. Trim Options And MSRPs Available trims for the 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan are as follows.  The base model S trim starts at a $26,950 manufacturer-suggested retail price. 2023 VW Tiguan trims & pricing S $26,950 SE $30,580 SE R-Line Black $33,310 SEL R-Line $37,680 *All prices starting MSRP - plus $1,295 destination One of the things we like about Volkswagen as a brand.  Is that the carmaker tends to equip its various trims with most of its available options.  So you still have options to select after picking your trim.  But VW equips their trims nicely.  Simplifying the buying process. Engines And Transmissions For the 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan, the engine and transmission options are simple. Because, no matter what trim, there's a single engine.  And when it comes to the trans.  You need only select from two-wheel or all-wheel drive. For Tiguan, two-wheel drive is front-wheel drive.  While, in the Volkswagen family, all-wheel drive is called 4MOTION. So the engine is a peppy 2.0L inline four-cylinder.  It's turbocharged and puts out 184 horsepower with 221 pound-feet of torque.  And the transmission is a smooth and spirited 8-speed automatic. Fuel Economy, Curb Weight, And Towing When it comes to MPG, Tiguan is a respectable player in the compact SUV segment.  With an overall EPA estimated range for all configurations of between 22 MPG in the city and 31 MPG on the highway. The 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan's curb weight pushes the scales between 3,737 and 3,821 depending on your configuration.  With 4MOTION AWD being the heavier option. But regardless of configuration, Volkswagen's Tiguan has a towing capacity of 1,500 pounds. 184 hp and 221 lb-ft of torque What's The 2023 VW Tiguan Look Like? The 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan is extremely difficult to differentiate from its previous model year.  But that's great because, with that year's refresh, Tiguan has never looked better. An athletic stance from the front and rear.  Compliments a clearly European and Volkswagen profile and badging.  Plus exceptionally clean lines silhouette the three-quarter views.  Both in the front and the rear. Exterior Dimensions Wheelbase 109.9 Length 186.1 Width 72.4 Track: front 62.2 rear 61.9 Height 66.4/66.5 Ground clearance 7.4/7.6 *All inches - FWD/AWD where applicable. Inside The 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan Sliding into the 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan is both easy and a pleasure. Because while it's considered a compact SUV, it's big inside.  With Volkswagen's ever-present attention to fit and finish detail.  Along with great usage of space. And Tiguan's optional 3-rows of seating to accommodate up to 7 passengers is hard to find in compact SUVs.  Younger kids are perfect for that third row.  Or smaller adults for short drives. Interior Dimensions 3-Row Tiguan Headroom w/ sunroof 38.2/37.7/33.8 Headroom w/o sunroof 39.6/39.1/33.8 Shoulder room 57.0/55.9/47.8 Hip room 54.5/53.5/39.5 Legroom 40.2/36.6/27.9 2-Row Tiguan Headroom w/ sunroof 38.2/37.9

“By offering bigger seats and more legroom, airlines are essentially asking if we're ready to cover the cost of providing the additional comfort. When we choose cheaper, less comfortable economy class seats, we're saying ‘No, thank you.'” ~ Art Carden

The 2021 Volkswagen Tiguan is the fourth model year of the second generation. So the second generation hit the US market in 2017.  And it was great then.  But with each year it keeps getting better.

The refreshed 2021 Volkswagen Arteon adds elements of driver assistance, connectivity, and refinement.  As a result, Arteon continues its this/closeness to luxury sibling brand Audi.  But the midsize flagship sedan does so while maintaining the Volkswagen pricing creating an attractive value proposition. ✅  The latest Arteon deals and incentives –> check inventory at Ontario Volkswagen 2021 VW Arteon Top-3: Design Interior Technology Because at under $37k starting price it's hard to beat the overall package Volkswagen Arteon offers. 268 hp & 258 lb-ft of torque 2021 Volkswagen Arteon Review Because no other European luxury brand has a non-luxury sibling VW is special.  And thanks go to Audi for sure.  But Porsche and other brands owned by Volkswagen Group too.  So, when you consider the available technology and innovation easily accessible to Volkswagen.  It's easy to understand how the carmakers packs so much into it's flagship sedan. First, it's exceptional design - inside and out.  Plus Volkswagen's reknown attention to fit and finish details.  And class leading technology.  Arteon looks great.  It's fun to drive, quick and offers superior handling.  And it includes Volkswagen's Digital cockpit which is a direct carryover from Audi. Trims And Prices For '21 Arteon is offered in three trim configurations.  Starting with the base-model SE.  Next is the SEL R-Line.  And the top trim for 2021 is the SEL Premium R-Line. 2021 Volkswagen Arteon Trims & MSRPS: Base-model SE $36,995 SEL R-Line $41,595 SEL Premium R-Line $46,995 As an reference I provide manufacturers suggested retail pricing.  But go see my friends at Ontario VW for not only your best price and selection but also your best buying experience. Engines, Transmissions, And MPG No matter which trim configuration, Arteon comes with the same engine and transmission.  But the factor you do have to weigh into the equation is front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.  And VW's AWD system is referred to as 4Motion. So the engine is an inline 2.0-liter 4-cylinder that's turbocharged.  And it puts out 268 horsepower with 258 pound-feet of torque.  That engine is paried with an 8-speed automatic transmission. EPA rated up to 32 mpg Leaving the FWD or 4Motion decision.  But, FWD is the only option on the SE trim.  The SEL R-Line offers both FWD and 4Motion.  And the SEL Premium R-Line only comes with the 4Motion. Fuel economy varies only a little.  Because AWD gives you 20 mpg in the city and 31 on the highway.  Whereas FWD will deliver 22 in the city and 32 on the highway. Finally, Arteon's curbweight also varies slightly due to FWD or AWD.  With FWD it's 3,686 and with AWD it's 3,955. What Does 2021 VW Arteon Look Like? Arteon's styling is undeniably attractive.  But it's also undeniably a Volkswagen.  And, you could say, it's undeniably the Volkswagen flagship sedan.  Because there's no bad angle when viewing the vehicle. Exterior Dimensions: Wheelbase 111.9 Track: Front 62.5 Rear 62.1 Length 191.6 Width 73.7 Height 56.9 *All inches Plus, depending on your trim configuration.  You can have your option of stylish 18", 19", or 20" wheels and R-Line sporty accents.  It's European for sure with a contemporary forward-leaning vibe. Inside '21 Arteon Inside the 2021 Volkswagen Arteon is where the fit and finish details really hit home.  Because even a non-car-guy/gal are able to appreciate the little things.  Like how the doors close with a solid feel.  Or how all the surfaces fit together snug and seamlessly. 41.2/40.2-inches front/back legroom Plus the interior mechanical parts of the vehicle work.  Like the center console storage cubbies function.  Or how the backseats fold down.

The 2021 Chevrolet Bolt EV delivers an EPA-estimated 259 miles of range on a full charge.  And that's comparable to a gas-fueled vehicle with a full tank.  So, consider that.  Plus new insanely competitive pricing on the compact electric wagon.  And it's easy to understand how sales are taking off. 2021 Chevy Bolt EV Top-3: Range Drive Interior Plus Chevy's just getting started with more electric product offerings on the way soon.  I recently picked up a nicely equipped base-model from my friends at Martin Chevrolet for this review. -->Continue reading or click play below to listen.

The 2021 Chevrolet Traverse looks just like a little Chevy Tahoe.  That's due to the Tahoe's redesign as of the same model year. And Traverse is a midsize SUV.  But here's the thing.  It's huge inside.  Best in class cargo room with up to 98.2 cubic feet of stuff space. ✅ Thanks to my friends at Martin Chevy for giving me the 2021 Chevy Traverse for this review! Plus it's a -row SUV that seats up to eight.  And it can tow up to 5,000 lbs.  Additionally, it can deliver up to 27 mpg.  So yeah, families dig it - a lot. Top-3: Interior - space! Versatility.

I love the cornflower blue color of the 2021 Volkswagen Golf GTI.  Because it's not at all quiet.  And reflective of the car's potency. But there's more to what makes the overall package so enticing.   Because of what the car costs, it shouldn't perform as well as it does.   Plus it shouldn't look as good as it does.  And it shouldn't be so darn fun to drive. So my Top-3 for the 2021 Volkswagen Golf GTI probably come as no surprise.

The 2020 Volkswagen Arteon sits in a class of its own.  As a (large) midsize, five-door fastback there's nothing quite like it. Because, in the US, there's no other European non-luxury offering that compares. Great looks, technology and, engineering equate to a value proposition you can't ignore. Ontario Volkswagen is my go-to for VW test drives and this review. 2020 VW Arteon Top-3: Exterior styling Interior design Value -->Continue reading or click play below to listen.

2021 Chevrolet Tahoe - All-New & Awesome! Nice. Job. Chevy! The all-new 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe is a homerun.  And it's made in the USA!  Arlington, Texas to be exact. So, I've always been a Tahoe fan.  But during my test drive.  I kept thinking.  They got it right.  And not just here or there.  But the whole thing. My sincere thanks to Lewis Cook at Martin Chevrolet.  He's the general manager.  And a dear friend.  Plus he gave me his first 2021.

Episode 4: A Brief History of Legroom Has your airplane seat felt a little tight lately? It’s not just you—it’s the evolution of legroom on passenger planes, and it’s not getting any roomier. We talk to Marva Semet to discuss how this battle for inches came about. Semet finds that spaces weren’t always so tight on in the early days of aviation, when flying itself was a luxury for the very few. During the 1940s, airlines realized that “the more people they could fit into an aircraft, the better.” Nowadays, airlines consider pitch (the space between a point on one seat and the same point on the seat in front of it) and width in passenger configurations when purchasing planes, and these numbers can be the difference between a comfortable journey and a torturous trek. Step inside our famous passenger planes: the Boeing Model 80-A(http://www.museumofflight.org/aircraft/boeing-80a-1), the first Boeing 747(http://www.museumofflight.org/aircraft/boeing-747-121) and the Boeing 787(http://www.museumofflight.org/aircraft/boeing-787-dreamliner) Dreamliner.
