Latheesh · 17th August 2011, 12:58

What a horrible launch function!...I remember the day when Tata Nano was launched. I did not sleep and watched the whole function online and informed others...I am outta here! will come back after some time to check the price!

here we go!

IMO , Pricing is as expected. Guess 50000 bookings will go grow more with this pricing!

Cheers!

Yep. Its just the introductory price, whoever booked can enjoy. Beware, the prices might go higher in the coming months.

The ZDI is 6.38 ex-showroom delhi. So should be around 7.6 OTR in Bangalore. Must say that's quite expensive!

mukeshgoel · 17th August 2011, 13:06

ZDI 6.38 ex-showroom delhi means Rs.7.08 OTR Delhi.

All prices in lacs . Ex- Showroom Delhi.

Very high for the ZDi. 77K more than the VDi. And too bad VDi doesn't have ABS option.

I remember, the old Swift was also launched with an introductory price which was revised upwards after some time.

Edit: Is the Integrated Audio system there in VDi?

6.38L for ZDi ex-showroom means just under 7L OTR in Kerala. Not bad pricing. However, since the old Swift did not have a ZDi earlier and the VDi (with ABS) came to only around 6L OTR, it might create an impression that the price has suddenly gone up by +1L OTR.

manjubp · 17th August 2011, 13:16

I am out to cancel my booking, better I wait for Polo 1.5l diesel, even with 1L more than ZDI, feel it is worth.

Latheesh · 17th August 2011, 13:17

ZDi will touch 7.4-7.5 OTR in Bangalore, V and Z bad variant/price decisions!

ZDi pricing is definitely on the higher side. At 7.5 OTR we have other options too.
Wonder if this pricing will now have a say on the new Jazz.

C300 · 17th August 2011, 13:22

Pricing is on the expected lines. The only catch here is the word 'Introductory'. I assume their plan is to gauge the demand for few months and take a decision on revised pricing.
It will be interesting to see how the Diesel Swift prices stack up against the new Jazz.

These two caught my eye. So does anyone have a pic of optional 16 inch alloys and tires?

And four Airbags in total?
