SUV are the craze in the Indian market considering the fact that domestic manufacturers have introduced us to them in huge size and form. Modern manufacturing technologies allowed to become smaller in size yet highly functional. What better place to showcase them for the first time than the Auto Expo 2016?
Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza:
The compact SUV from Maruti is the next big thing from the Indo-Japanese manufacturer. Made entirely in India and comes with color coordinated roof and funky colors, this SUV is the next generation thing from Maruti when it comes to taking bold steps. The SUV will come with just one diesel engine and gearbox and will fight against the well established Ecosport.
The compact sedan from Chevrolet is finally here and is based on the Beat. The design is very well done and far more well executed despite the fact that the donor car is a tall boy. The boot space it has is reasonable and space in the rear is just about good. What Chevy should go for are fuel-efficient engines, fantastic after sales support, quality interiors and solidly built car inside out.
Anything which is set to go up against the likes of the XUV 500 is already a huge model. Tucson from Hyundai is a very good looker inside out and will offer features, value, efficiency and powerful engine with affordable price range for SUV buyers who cannot reach the Santa Fe. The monocoque chassis equipped car will fight it out till the other one bleeds. Let’s wait and see how it turns out to be and how the Hyundai is positioned.
The show stealer from Tata is the upcoming compact SUV which will go against the likes of Vitara Brezza, Ford Ecosport and upcoming vehicles from Hyundai and Honda. Powerful engines, excellent styling inside out, solidly build quality and futuristic design are sure to take this compact SUV to places. It will be hard to beat as it could be the best ever Tata yet and infact, boldly speaking, the best compact SUV in the market.
The cash cow from Toyota is finally here in an all new avatar! The car has grown in size, space and most importantly quality. The MPV will have features, bullet proof reliability, ladder on frame chassis, automatic gearbox in petrol and diesel engines and Toyota’s great after sales and service facilities.
The hottest of the hot hatchbacks is here. It is going to cost a lot of money to the prospective buyers as it is set to reach 18-20 lakhs price tag. The 190 BHP hatch which puts the power down through the DSG gearbox and to the front wheels will shortly go on sale in India. The car has what it takes to make enthusiast giggle like a small girl when it comes to performance.
Jeep is back and how! The iconic SUV has returned with other stablemates such as the Wrangler and Cherokee SRT. The Cherokee on the other hand is the highlight. Pricing should be between for this mammoth SUV around Rs. 35-40 lakhand should make it an ideal premium SUV in the market with a character, luxury and lot of punch.
The Jaguar SUV has created lot of buzz worldwide and it has finally landed in India. To be launched very soon, the F-Pace has what it takes to go against the competition. It has highly tested, soft roader image with off-roading capabilities along with superb performance from powerful petrol engines. It is the ideal car to be chauffeured around and go to the race tracks with. The F-pace pricing will determine how it performs in the Indian market
Honda’s new SUV has made it to the Indian shores and on the face it, it doesn’t have much to impress its buyers with. Same platform, same interiors, borrowed exteriors to some extent makes this SUV quite an interesting vehicle from Honda. Buyers will have to wait for a value for money price tag as the engines are already decided for this SUV. The pricing and Honda badge will help this SUV sell. If the pricing goes out of hand, then it is going to be another car that will just sit in the parking lot like rest of the Honda cars.
