Partial disengagement from Galwan, Hot Springs and Gogra occurred in June–July 2020 while complete disengagement from Pangong Lake north and south bank took place in February 2021. Indian media also reported that Indian troops fired warning shots at the PLA on 30 August. On 7 September, for the first time in 45 years, shots were fired along the LAC, with both sides blaming each other for the firing. Media reports stated that soldiers were taken captive on both sides and released in the coming few days while official sources on both sides went on to deny this. According to Indian sources, melee fighting on 15/16 June 2020 resulted in the deaths of 20 Indian soldiers and casualties of 43 Chinese soldiers. In late May, Chinese forces objected to Indian road construction in the Galwan river valley. Additional clashes also took place at locations in eastern Ladakh along the Line of Actual Control (LAC).

#WHAT ARE PRESTIGE POINTS IN MMX HILL DASH 2 UPGRADE#
Peugeot’s six-speed torque converter auto is a good one (though you need to upgrade to the eight-speed GT Sport to get shift paddles), and Bridgestone Dueler rubber might come in handy if you decide to test its additional ground clearance.īut don’t be fooled by “grip control” terrain modes with sand, mud and snow settings – it’s fundamentally a city-bound front-wheel-drive hatchback at heart. The offbeat warble accompanies 6.5L/100km economy that translates to a slightly tardy nine-second dash to 100km/h, though we wouldn’t expect a lot more from a compact SUV. Powered by a 1.2-litre three-cylinder turbo motor with 96kW/230Nm, the 2008 has a charmingly grumpy growl when you get on the gas.

I’m also less-than-convinced by the need to use the occasionally tricky touchscreen to access key features such as airconditioning controls. In my case, positioning the steering wheel so that it doesn’t bump into my knees obscures my view of the speedometer, which is less than ideal. It works beautifully for some – but not all – drivers, prescribing a low-handed driving posture. Peugeot rocked the boat with its original i-Cockpit layout, placing a tiny steering wheel in the driver’s lap and a compact gauge cluster near the base of the windscreen.
