Autocar Professional's recent edition centers on lightweighting as a transformative force in the automotive industry, moving beyond a background consideration to become central to vehicle development strategies. 

Key highlights include insights from the recently held Vehicle Lightweighting Conference (June 12–13), which featured leading voices from OEMs, Tier-1 suppliers, and material innovators. Topics ranged from simulation-led engineering and gigacasting to battery-pack optimization, presenting a comprehensive picture of India’s growing leadership in global automotive innovation.

This edition also features an exclusive interview with Ashish Gupta, Brand Director of Skoda Auto India, who shares his vision for elevating the brand into the country’s top six OEMs. In addition, it offers a detailed analysis of Tata Motors’ forward-looking strategy as outlined in its latest investor meet.

The magazine also pays tribute to the late Sunjay Kapur, Chairman of Sona Comstar and a key figure in India’s component industry. Remembered for his leadership, mentorship, and strategic vision, his loss is deeply felt across the automotive community.

Autocar Professional magazine is available through all good newsagents and for download from Magzster.
