New Zen from MARUTI - Team-BHP

akroy · 3rd May 2006, 11:14

Hi All
Was watching CNBC-TV18 last night. Suddenly saw a one line at the footer, "Maruti to launch a 1000cc car NEW ZEN in october". Anybody have any idea about this car?

The 1000 cc engine

it would be nice if maruti has the option of a two-seater and a two-door in the "new" zen.

Alll new maybe. I think they might be thinking about new Suzuki Ignis. Pricing would be a challenge. I think any car by Suzuki in this range would hurt Wagon R the most.
