I am surprised to see some of the comments in this thread. I don't see anything exciting in this 75ps Manza. Wouldn't it be too much of strain on the engine for a car that weighs 1210 kgs? |

...Among the Duster 85ps and the 110ps, the 85ps has less turbo lag and better city drive ability whereas the 110ps has better highway performance! |

Introducing a 75PS in a Manza that already has a 90PS model, not sure of the rationale |

Not sure if this has been asked and answered on the thread but the host of additions to the feature list will be available on the 90ps model starting 16th Oct'12 as well right? |

We can't compare the K9K engine & 1.3 MJD in terms of driveability. The 75 PS version does have quite some turbo lag and this is going to be a PAIN in the city! On the other hand the 85 PS K9K engine is one of the best to drive in a city. |

If you were being driven around, this is probably the smartest car to get in India (along side the Scala/Sunny siblings) because of the comfort it provides. And if the car is nicked by those autos, cabs , and the bikes from hell - it won't leave a burning hole in your pocket. |

The rationale here is to lower the prices to lure corporate, fleet buyers and also price conscious junta who may not feel the need for the extra 15PS. |

Add to this, manza doesn't feel as planted as sunny. Maybe its the suspension or its relatively tall stance, but the body roll at rear is visible. I own manza and didn't notice this till I was at drivers seat. Recently I sat at the rear, and the bounciness makes one uncomfortable. Now I realize why the ladies at my home feel sick on a long journey. |

I'm guessing the manza invidious sat in would've been a 1st gen with 2 tone beige interiors, unlike your Manza, motomaverick. I'd ridden an abused 1st gen long ago, and felt the interior quality & condition fit individous's description to a certain extent, unlike newer manzas with black/purple + beige interiors, which I feel, have decent interior quality. :) |
