Loved the Kite sedan, even has ACC while Zica didn't seem to offer that. Do I also see a rear / roof spoiler? Easily one of the B-E-S-T OEM alloy wheel design (resembles one of the MOMO model).

Had apprehensions on the Nexon and am not disappointed because of low expectations. The rear looks hi-fi, but rear visibility is going to be a serious problem I guess.

Bolt Sport seems to have borrowed the front skirts from Vista D90, sunroof is a surprise though!

Storme Tuff - we have had better versions of Safari. This is quite passable!

The Tata Kite 5 looks stunning, very well designed! Why does Tata need 2 sub-4m sedans though? The Zest is a very well equipped Compact Sedan as well, not sure of their strategy here.

The Nexon looks good as well, Tata has definitely upped their design game - better than anything Mahindra has put out over the past few years. Looking forward to the official launch of these products!

The next gen Isuzu D max pick up, based on the trailblazers underpinings.

The Mega Auto Expo 2016 Thread: General Discussion, Live Feed & Pics-id.jpg

In a bid to make it more upmarket the dash is also shared from the trailblazer with the exception of the instrument cluster and Chevrolet’s MyLink infotainment system.

It will be built at the new Isuzu Motors India manufacturing plant at Sri City, Andhra Pradesh from April 2016, and the manufacturer has said it will be priced around Rs 15 lakhs.

The four-door D-Max is powered only by a 2.5-litre 130bhp diesel motor paired with a five-speed automatic gearbox, and gets all-wheel drive.

Volkswagen's Live Webcast from Auto Expo currently in progress.

Ameo, Tiguan and Passat to be shown today from what I could gather. Polo GTI launch tomorrow.

Apologizing again for the Diesel scandal

Re: The Mega Auto Expo 2016 Thread: General Discussion, Live Feed & Pics

I am not really convinced with Tata's strategy of having two compact sedans (Zest and Kite 5) in its portfolio. I am not counting Indigo CS here as it's a really old product. They will obviously place it above Zica which is expected to start at 3.5-4.0 lac. This will mean a final nail in the coffin for Bolt which is already struggling to find buyers. I have always believed that Tata priced Zest way too aggressively leaving little room for Bolt pricing which made it a sales dud.

Kite 5 looks smashingly good. That's a nifty roof spoiler. Good to see ACC provided. Rear has to be the best among all sub 4m CS cars. I am apprehensive of how will Tata position it as Zest already occupies a place in that segment.
Nexon looks really futuristic. I wonder how much of it will convert into production model.
Safari Tuff deserves a place in weird and wacky thread. What was Tata thinking showcasing it.

The Kite sedan looks stunning! What a beauty. Great work by Tata. Can't think of any other sub 4 metre sedan looking even remotely as good as this, including the VW Ameo.

Isn't it good if a sales dud (Bolt) can be replaced by a compact sedan with better prospects?

Kite5 might be priced closer to the Zica hatchback making it the cheapest (and extremely good looking) compact sedan on sale. I think it has better prospects than Zica, Zest and Bolt combined.

Nexon is one of the most confused designs I've seen from TATA, after the Aria. I'm willing to bet this one is a big sales flop in the making.
