FIAT 's 1.3 MJD powered Cars are ruling Indian roads. This Beast looks tiny only on Papers. On roads, its Big Big Performers.
MARUTI has made major in roads with SWIFT, D'Zire and RITZ mainly due to this Diesil Engine. Although Maruti Cars give slightly better mileage , due to lighter weight. But they have short service intervals (about 7500-8000 KM), frequent service is time wasting & costly affair.
Buyers should look at the originators of this STORM, as better VFM.
TATA-FIAT.
On Safety front, besides, tougher cars, Tata-FIAT are giving "Standard Dual Headlamps & Rear Fog Lamps" at no extra price, which are not even optional in some other Auto makers.
LINEA-Among the Most Beautiful car on Indian roads. In Comfort, Safety, Features, Mileage etc. LINEA performs much better than cars with 40%-50% higher price, All Civis, Corollas, Octavias etc. are only higher, more in price and marginally high engine C.C. Else LINEA much better package. Now LINEA Comes with Jet Turbo 120 BHP Petrol and 120 BHP+ Diesel, watch out at Auto Expo Jan 2010
PALIO- Got forgotten mainly due to Premier Auto started FIAT's problems. By the time TATA & FIAT came together, it was too late. Although the oldest among all 1.3 MJD Cars, still among the most attractive car.
PUNTO-Its LINEA without a boot. Among Premium hatchs, its much better package than i20, Fabias to upcoming Figo etc. Its tuff heavy body makes you feel safe as if, sitting in a tank not a hatch.
VISTA-Its the Best overall package that one can get in and around Rs.4-4.5 Lakhs range. Comfort, Space, Safety, it can be called Tata Version of Punto or lil sis of PUNTO.
MANZA-Steller from Tata. It can surely do in saloons, what Vista did in hatch. Teach a lesson to Japanese & Korean Car makers,who are just over charing the Buyers. In comfort, features etc. Manza is lil sis of LINEA.
Its time, Indian buyers should look at Indian makers like Tata-FIAT more seriousely. Tata-FIAT cars have long service intervals, 15000 KM for FIAT Cars & 12000 for Tata Cars, an added benefit. Where you can lose on mileage to tiny Marutis, you can more than make up with long service intervals.
SAFFIRE Engines from Tata-FIAT are equally performers. 1.3 MJD is so nice, that Tata-FIAT buyers do not look beyond it. 1.4 Saffire is also way ahead of peers in Petrol versions of D'Zire, SWIFT, Accent, Verna, Fiesta, Logan etc.
Happy Responsible and VALUE-FOR-MONEY Motoring. Cheers!!
