My Pictorial Auto Expo 2008 report

esteem_lover · 11th January 2008, 13:02

The AMW global truck looks like it is going to give serious competition to the Tata Ace. What's the full form of AMW ? Accidental Motor Works ?

Great work Steer!!! Keep it up.

BUSA · 11th January 2008, 13:10

Excellent pics steer, specially the Linea and GP in the bad lightning. Did the Fiat Palio 1.3 have any alternations in the interiors?

Endeavour comes at 17L + OTR.

Here is a side profile of the Fabia especially for Jerish666!

This car is ridiculously overpriced at 9Lakhs.

Excellent pictures, Steer. Very detailed. Hyundai had some wicked concepts, but I am pretty disappointed with the look of the new Elantra. The least they could have done is offer it in a better colour and visual enhancements (better alloys). This hardly makes an impression, and will continue to suffer from the same problem as the last gen Elantra did. An indescript personality.

The Sumo looks fantastic even in non-press pictures, and will decidedly be pretty darn spacious. Xenon = Super cool! Particularly impressed with the butch styling and dark grey / black interiors.

Keep 'em coming....

The other "economy" car at the Auto Expo, the VW Up! Aptly named, since with 20" alloys and 35 profile tyres, there is no way they can keep the price Down!

great pics steer. Did u find any difference in palio 1.3 MJD interiors. Please post a side profile of xenon as well.

Up looks similar to A-star ?

Wish they give us this instead - 2008 Hyundai i30 First Steer &raquo Australian Car Advice | News Blog

The rest of the world(mostly) is getting this as the Elantra replacement, and also read somewhere that the US of A is getting an Estate version of the i30 as well.

the Genesis resembles the camry to a great extent. in fact it's a camry look-alike.

Akshay1234 · 11th January 2008, 16:44

awesome pics steer.

ishaan - what do you think of the tyres on that hyundai concept?

deuce-deuce · 11th January 2008, 17:50

Man,some nice legs on display there!! Steer,you have quite an eye,my friend!

abhibh · 11th January 2008, 18:05

@Steer Thanks for the SEXY pics from the FIAT and HYUNDAI Stalls.

Vid6639 · 11th January 2008, 18:07

Steer, do you have more pics from the Honda stall? I thought there was a Yeti at the honda stall.

Vinaygv · 11th January 2008, 18:21

@Steer
Nice pics, what model is the palio? looks like a 1.6 with a rear spoiler, is that the new 1.3 or a revamped version of the 1.6? the Punto looks really gorgeous.
