SEOUL/LEATHERHEAD, October 29, 2025 – The Hyundai TUCSON has been named Best Used Family SUV at the 2025 What Car? Used Car Awards, reaffirming its strong appeal not only as a new vehicle but also as a top choice in the pre-owned market.
The judging panel at What Car? – a respected UK-based automotive consumer publication widely referenced by buyers across global markets – praised the TUCSON for its exceptional practicality, premium interior quality, engaging yet efficient driving experience, and outstanding ownership value.
“If interior space is high on your list of priorities, the family-friendly Hyundai TUCSON is well worth a look. Four tall adults will have plenty of room and the boot is cavernous. Its interior quality impresses, too. On top of that, it’s good to drive, there are frugal hybrids, and it comes with a confidence-inspiring reliability record, said Mark Pearson, Used Cars Editor of What Car magazine. He continued, “The fact that this immensely appealing family SUV should also be such great value when bought used just seals the deal for us.”
Since its launch in 2021, the TUCSON has consistently been among the UK’s best-selling new cars. It has also received multiple international accolades from outlets including Top Gear, Auto Express and Carbuyer.
Ashley Andrew, President of Hyundai Motor and Genesis UK said, “The TUCSON has proven to be a thoroughly desirable SUV for tens of thousands of new car buyers over a number of years, so it is no surprise that its many attributes are equally appealing to those in the market for a pre-owned car, as evidenced by What Car? naming it Best Used Family SUV of 2025. It’s stylish, enjoyable to drive, and superb value.”

Finance leaders worldwide are reimagining how they run with Cloud ERP—and this week, Gartner recognized SAP (SAP Cloud ERP) as a Leader in the 2025 Magic Quadrant for Cloud ERP Finance.
We believe this recognition reflects SAP’s completeness of vision and ability to execute in the Cloud ERP Finance market.
At the core of this recognition is SAP Cloud ERP, built on a unified, dimension-driven architecture that provides real-time planning and decision-making across global entities. With localization for 60 countries, embedded analytics to enhance compliance and controls, and advanced capabilities including treasury, subscription billing, and joint venture accounting, SAP Cloud ERP equips organizations to operate with confidence and scale with agility.
This recognition comes to life in the stories of our customers.
One example is Bain & Company, a global consultancy that implemented SAP Cloud ERP to standardize and future-proof its finance foundation across 40 countries. By unifying core financial processes and adopting a “clean core” approach with minimal customizations, Bain accelerated its global close, strengthened governance with transparent KPIs, and simplified the integration of acquisitions.
As Stephen Mackey, EVP of Global Finance at Bain, explained that SAP Cloud ERP “was the best fit for Bain. It future-proofed our technology stack, enabled us to get the data we needed to make business decisions, and positioned us to grow.”
And from a CIO perspective, Ramesh Razdan added: “We wanted a platform that solves the problems of today and sets us up for the future. With SAP, we’ve built a strong foundation, and this is just the beginning.”
A key differentiator is the integration with SAP Build Process Automation, which enables customers to automate critical finance processes such as validating account balances, processing invoices, and reconciling payments. With prebuilt bots and no-code tools, CFOs can accelerate the financial close and improve efficiency, while laying the foundation for SAP’s next wave of AI-driven financial analysis and automation planned for 2026.
When we speak to customers about SAP Cloud ERP, they appreciate the seamless integration with SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP), which allows them to extend, customize, and connect finance processes without disrupting their core. They highlight the leading capabilities delivered with Joule, enabling finance teams to gain natural language interaction, contextual financial insights, and task automation that reduce manual work and support faster, smarter decision-making.
We believe being named a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud ERP Finance highlights SAP’s commitment to continuous innovation. From enhanced localization and compliance support to intuitive Fiori-based user experiences and embedded AI, SAP Cloud ERP is designed to help finance leaders stay ahead of regulatory, technological, and business change.
With SAP, CFOs can streamline operations, strengthen controls, and drive resilience — leading finance into the future with confidence.

Top 20 teams also won INR 1 lakh each and Samsung Galaxy Z Flip smartphones
The programme inked multi-year partnerships with Startup India, Startup Hub and Atal Innovation Mission
Winners of Samsung Solve for Tomorrow 2025
Samsung, India’s largest consumer electronics brand, today announced the winners of Samsung Solve for Tomorrow 2025, the fourth edition of its national education programme that challenges school students to use technology to create real-world solutions for pressing challenges in their local communities.

They were joined by Dr. Rand Harrington, Director of the American Embassy School, who served on the jury for the theme Social Change through Sport and Tech: For Education & Better Futures along with Dr. Sumeet K. Jarangal, Director, DPIIT.
Distinguished guests at the Awards Ceremony included Professor Ajay K Sood, Principal Scientific Adviser to the Government of India, Shombi Sharp, United Nations Resident Coordinator in India, Dr. Nikhil Agarwal, Managing Director, FITT, IIT Delhi and Pragnya Mohan, International Olympic Committee Young Leader.
“This generation of young innovators is exactly what India needs. They are capable of designing with purpose, not just imitating what is being done globally. When ideas emerge from the ground up, rooted in local challenges, they have the power to transform our trajectory as a product nation,” said Prof. Ajay K Sood, Principal Scientific Adviser to the Government of India.
This year’s edition saw participation from every Indian state, with strong representation from Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, reaffirming Samsung’s mission to make innovation inclusive and accessible. From AI-powered accessibility tools to sustainability apps, these projects reflect the power of youth-led technology in transforming communities.
Through sustained mentorship, access to Samsung’s R&D expertise, and incubation at IIT Delhi, Samsung Solve for Tomorrow 2025 continues to nurture India’s next generation of innovators — shaping the future of technology, for Bharat and beyond.
Breaking into Italy’s car-obsessed culture isn’t easy but Milan-based startup Wayla believes it has found the way. The van-based ride-sharing service is challenging Italy’s taxi lobby – and its driving habits.
Italians are addicted to their cars. In fact, the bel paese has among the highest car ownership in Europe, ranking just behind Poland and Luxembourg, according to the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association. All of which makes it difficult for a new mobility player to break into a market so attached to their precious vehicles.
But that’s not the only problem. Italy hasn’t always welcomed mobility upstarts with open arms. With taxi licenses tightly controlled, Euractiv has described the country’s taxi lobby as “mafia-like”. Foreign players such as Uber and Bolt have struggled to gain ground due to stringent regulations. The former only operates its premium Black service in Milan and Rome, and it costs more than a conventional taxi.
Despite the challenging environment, it’s clear that Italy needs more services that provide affordable, viable alternatives to private cars. A flexible service that arrives directly to a user could be key in a nation with a rapidly ageing, less mobile population. That’s where Wayla, a point-to-point van ridesharing service, comes in.
Operating in Milan since 2024, the €1.2m that Wayla recently raised through crowdfunding might be small change compared to global mobility giants. But it shows solid proof of public interest. Could this be the start of an Italian mobility revolution? Monocle spoke to Wayla’s co-founder and chief strategy officer, Mario Ferretti, to find out.
What market dynamics sparked the idea for Wayla, and how are you positioning yourself within Italy’s mobility landscape?
Mario Ferretti: Italy is peculiar when it comes to urban mobility. There’s a structural supply-demand gap, so we need new alternatives to move around our cities – and that’s where Wayla comes in. We are importing the idea to the country and defining it in a way that best fits our culture and is compliant with Italian laws.
We are currently active in Milan. The system is simple: you download the app, sign up and then you can request a point-to-point ride in the urban area. Once requested, a van of ours will come and pick you up. During the ride, other users can join the journey, making it a cheaper option than other alternatives.
Italy has historically been a challenging market for mobility innovators, particularly due to the taxi lobby’s power and its resistance to foreign ride-hailing competitors. How has Wayla navigated this so far?
We are completely compliant with Italian laws, and we are an Italian startup with Italian employees. So our story is different from those of foreign companies. In a political sense, that’s probably why the market has been more welcoming to us than some of the other players in the past. Still, we are bringing competition where it’s needed – and it’s important to do so. We believe there’s room for everyone. There’s a huge and growing demand in Italy from both residents and tourists. Alternatives are needed.
A similar ride-pooling initiative, Moia, recently ceased operations in Hanover. What strategic or operational lessons have you taken from that example as you expand across Italy?
You need to have a clear vision. Moia is more focused on becoming a tech company [than us] and also more focused on providing autonomous vehicles. That’s growing in Italy as well, albeit at a slower rate than in Germany. Germany’s competitive landscape is also different from Italy’s. We have more space to grow here, and we are already doing well in Milan. We are planning to expand into many other cities, where both the municipalities and other private players are calling for us to go. We are pioneers in this country, so we also expect other players to follow us to the market, which is fine. We can grow together.
How central are electric vehicles to Wayla’s business model?
We are growing a fleet of electric vehicles. We think it’s essential, and not greenwashing. Our vision is to be a sustainable model for urban transportation. We are already using EVs and we will be doing so more in the future. Italy is a bit lagging when it comes to electrification but our role as a mobility player is to push and invest in the decarbonisation of our fleet and that’s what we’re doing.
You’re right that Italy is often seen as lagging in the adoption of new technology. How are you working with that perception?
There’s certainly much to do when it comes to communicating the right things, even beyond our country. It’s the responsibility of everyone and anyone in the ecosystem. We need to attract talent, investments and ideas from abroad. There is room to innovate and there is space to disrupt. That’s what we are trying to do with Wayla – and that’s what’s needed for the future of our country.

Traders work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange.

U.S. stocks rose to record levels on Wednesday, boosted by tech names, ahead of the Federal Reserve’s interest rate decision.
The Nasdaq Composite climbed 0.6%, and the S&P 500 traded up 0.2%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced 231 points, or 0.5%. All three leading U.S. indexes scored new all-time intraday highs in the trading day.
Nvidia shares were up nearly 4%, putting the chipmaker’s market capitalization above $5 trillion. It’s the first time a U.S. company reached such a valuation. The move put the stock on track for a five-day winning streak as well as its first back-to-back 4% gain since May. AMD followed Nvidia higher, rising more than 1%, while Micron jumped almost 4%.
Wall Street is coming off a second day of fresh records for the major averages. The S&P 500 rose 0.2% and topped 6,900 for the first time ever intraday, putting it on the cusp of a major milestone at 7,000.
Investors expect the stock market will continue to have its way so long as it’s able to make it through a rapid succession of tests this week. The Fed is widely expected to cut rates by a quarter point at the conclusion of its meeting Wednesday, but less certain is whether Chair Jerome Powell will strike a dovish tone in his post-meeting comments. Investors are counting on another interest rate cut from the central bank at its December meeting.
The five “Magnificent Seven” companies set to report this week are expected to continue spending on building data centers, but any disappointment from the megacap behemoths could hurt the broader market. Alphabet, Meta Platforms and Microsoft are set to report after the close on Wednesday. Apple and Amazon post results on Thursday.
Trade tensions between the U.S. and China already appear to have alleviated after progress over the weekend, but investors are now awaiting what comes of President Donald Trump’s meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping in South Korea.
The warming relationship was a key driver in the market on Tuesday, according to Thierry Wizman, global FX & rates strategist at Macquarie Group.
“The market is seeing President Trump re-engaging with the rest of the world again (i.e., China and Japan), and this is a good thing, insofar as it may temper his desire for more tariffs,” Wizman said. “The prospect of seeing very high tariffs, especially on China, have diminished. To some extent, this also plays to the prospect that the Fed will be dovish too, given there is a connection between lower tariffs and lower inflation.”
To be sure, sky-high valuations and an ongoing government shutdown continue to remain risks for a market that is at all-time highs, even as analysts warn traders not to bet against this market.
“I anticipate that we’re going to continue to see enthusiasm as we go through this week,” Lauren Goodwin, chief market strategist at New York Life Investments, told CNBC’s “Closing Bell” on Tuesday. She added, “I think through the end of the year we’re free and clear.”
