Re: The Cult Vehicles of India!

Going by the meaning of word 'Cult', I feel Fiat Linea T-Jet definitely deserves a recognition in the list.
With superbly tuned suspension and a Turbo assisted Gasoline Engine engine that brought the sweet smile with its eager responsiveness every time the pedal is pushed, this one definitely got a recognition among the performance enthusiast petrol heads.
IMHumblePO, this is one name that deserves an honourable mention, if not more.

Re: The Cult Vehicles of India!

Having owned both the Honda City and the Linea T Jet , I have to say that the Honda covers distances at a greater clip than the Linea. Linea TJet had a great “on-paper” engine but was let down by its weight and the notchy gearbox. However, the Linea felt more solid and reassuring , but not incredibly superior in terms of performance.

Re: The Cult Vehicles of India!

In bikes the cult vehicles are :
1. Yamaha RX 100/RD 350/RX-Z
2. Pulsar series (especially the definitely male model and 200NS. These were game changers in its times)
3.Suzuki Shogun.
4.Hero Impulse (A capable off roader)
5. Enfield Bullet (The Right side gear ones during 1980-early 2000's)

In cars, most of them have already mentioned but my favorites in the cult cars are:
1. Mitsubishi Lancer
2. Old Honda City(Gen 1)
3. Mahindra Thar/Scorpio(2005-2009)/XUV 500(1st gen)
4. Renault Duster AWD
5. Ford EcoSport
6. S-cross 1.6
7.Maruti Gypsy
8. VW Jetta/ Polo GTI

All these cars and bikes have their own unique traits which one can feel while riding or driving them. These vehicles give us those goosebumps and those attributes are what make them a cult vehicle.

Re: The Cult Vehicles of India!

Spotting even one Tiago JTP is like a needle in a haystack but finding three of them parked together
