A new car

A new car from Maruti Suzuki stable is ready to be launched on 16 Oct 2012. This “Alto 800” will replace its predecessor “Alto”, the most popular small car of India.   This new model looks like a well designed keeping the latest trends in mind. The car’s exterior looks so good that it may be a head turner when it hits the roads. Price is reasonably kept low to compete with other competitors Hyundai, Tata and Chevrolet. Mileage claimed about 23 KM per liter of petrol which is a plus point which every buyer takes into consideration before buying.  Considering all this, it may not be a flop like some of their models and will continue to be the best selling car like its predecessor.

 

Maruti’s answer to Nano

Now, it’s the turn of Maruti, who is seriously planning a car priced closer to Nano, and it could apparently be the Cervo, a compact five door mini that might put the other kids on the block in the shade.The Cervo looks like a smaller Chevrolet Beat with cues from Honda Jazz’s design.

The phenomenal fuel efficiency is one of the USPs of this car.

Powered by Suzuki’s 660cc engine – as against Nano’s 623cc – the Cervo could be priced between 1.5 to 2 lakhs, a little higher than Nano. But Cervo looks too stylish and futuristic to be priced under 2 lakhs. So it’s obvious that Maruti needs to delete some of the features available in the car, or use a cheaper material to make a potent contender to Nano.

Although not all can repeat the Nano story, Maruti has resources and expertise to come up with such a model at a cheap price without compromising on quality. Lets hope for the best.
