Tata has a 1.4L DICOR engine, limited to 70bhp instead of the 90bhp which it is capable of.
the limit is due to the gearbox.
Now lets say a new 4 speed auto box mated to this engine. Ex showroom price for Delhi 4.4L
This 90bhp auto will be the ideal machine.
As for the petrol engine, Tata has a 100bhp version of the 1.4 liter too. So the only component which Tata lacks is a 4 speed auto. With all those global acquisitions and with some help for fiat, it wont be difficult for them to get an Automatic gearbox.
