Interesting!

0-100kmph figures are same for Maruti 800 and Fiat Palio Stile 1.1- (20.8 secs compared to 20.7 secs)
(Source: Overdrive magazine, August 2007).

Top- speed of Palio Stile 1.1 is 147 kmph.
Top- speed of Maruti800 is 144.2 kmph.
(Source: Overdrive magazine, August 2007)

Power to weight ratio for Palio Stile 1.1 is 57.58 bhp/ton.
Power to weight ratio for Maruti 800 is 57.143 bhp/ton.

Torque to weight figures for Palio stile 1.1 92.93 Nm/ton.
Torque to weight figures for Maruti 800 88.72 Nm/ton.

All that palio 1.1 has more than Maruti 800 is the 4 Nm/ton torque which is negated by the fact that M800 delivers its peak torque at a lower 2500 rpm compared to 2750 rpm in the case of the Stile. (Figures quoted from Overdrive and ACI)

Palio is a palio and M800 is an M800. But the figures dont say that they perform any differently.

Still think Palio Stile 1.1 with CNG kit will give a M800 a run for its speed?
