About Author 

For 12 years now (as of 2024), Raunak’s been fascinated by anything on four wheels and has been actively covering the Indian automotive scene across print and media formats. As far as he’s concerned, if it has a seat in the middle, an engine powering two wheels (preferably the rears), and a sonorous shriek accompanying every stab of the throttle, you can sign him up.

Over the years, his experience includes working for two Indian publications (Autocar India and Motoring World Magazine), and a pair of media houses (PowerDrift and Forbes India Momentum). The latter involved him displaying his mug in front of the camera for a two year duration and ensuring hundreds (if not thousands) heard his take on anything automotive every week.

Today, Raunak’s a lot more content producing auto content from the comfort of his home for varied clients across the world. Gives him more time to think before speaking, he says.
