Chevrolet Aveo ( Bit expensive but worth it & better than Accent )
Hyundai Getz 1.3 GVS
All the above cars are brilliant with Accent being the oldest of the lot. It is not being discontinued and is selling well as prices have come to 5 Lacs Ex-Showroom.
Swift / Getz again are excellent car ( Minus the Boot ).
Aveo is a very good package but would cost you more like 6.5 ex ( Mid Variant ). |
Yeah, I shall check those cars. I am a little skeptic about the GM make cars, as I mentioned in my first post. Are they good? Are people satisfied with them? Chevrolet cars in US have quite a few problems and it's expensive to replace their parts. How is their service in India? Another thing which I don't like about GM is that they just discontinues a model without any prior hint.

Okay, Ikon will also be discontinued. I shall keep that in mind. Hyundai is offerring a good deal for the basic level Accent. The trim is probably GLE.

Fiat Linea ( Only guesses on the Price - 6 Lacs or so )
Keep a watch on the upcoming Auto Expo 2008 which will give you a fair idea of what all is going to be launched. |
Yeah, sure. I keep checking regularly the BHP news section.
