Most Probably the 1.1 will be sold along with 1.2. So its like we we have two engine options.

Santro will continue. It is still doing good sales, despite being beaten by i10 very badly.

I think Santro may continue through the LPG and CNG route or perhaps with just one variant.
Yes, they cant bring that 1.2 and also the 1.2 is 1242 cc, well ahead of the 1200cc barrier limit in India.
Correct, Santro will continue.

No, just as i10 is successor to Santro, i20 is successor to Getz.
