Like the Tusker name, Trailster does not resonate with me one bit.
Moreover, Tusker sounds night and day better than Creta. I've always liked car names that mean something in plain English rather than latin or languages that most manufacturers gravitate towards.

Festive season in India you mean Diwali 2019 ? So does that mean it's delayed ?
Or are you just posting what the source mentions ?
Kindly clarify ...

I feel it is just getting late. Ideally with the readiness of the plant in January, the product should have been ready by July and launch in August latest.

Caught the SP1 on Mathura (Toll) Road, Faridabad. Attached are few pics my passenger could manage. Actually it was one of my multiple sightings but this time I had someone accompanying me in my car.,have the pics.

Was doing good (legal) speeds, yet was so stable on tarmac, almost like it was a hover-craft/ board. Size-wise it's marginally bigger than current Creta (which would also grow up in next gen 2 years later).

Seems quite big when viewed from the side and rear two-thirds. Space behind the C-pillar can accommodate a 3rd row of seats!

Caught on the old Pune-Mumbai highway, wearing different alloys, by our friendly neighborhood Autospy.

To me this camouflaged KIA resembles the previous generation CRV (especially the rear quarter).

Certainly LOOKS bigger than Creta. Is there a 7 seater version in the making ? (Like Harrier & Buzzard)

Or it could be just the angle of the photo doing the trick. The images posted during the production trail run made it look similar to Creta (size wise)

Are these the DRL's ?

Is it just me or do they look like a Skoda offering?

Don't think they are DRLs. More like the gap between the camouflage.
