Hi Mav, looking at the Indian sales and analysis thread, the number of (Lancers plus Cedias) sold in Bangalore in jan-jul timeframe is 115 nos. I don't think this is a big number or much better than last year.

Dont know, just looks like I am seeing a lot of cedias these days, specially a blue one with really nice alloys. i think 16" or 17" with low profile tyres. Anyone here?

Update:

Cedia - Spirit bookings from 15th October, Vehilce could vailable at the showroom from Monday onwards* Select Dicontinued, No clarity on the Sports version.

Features added - Climate Control, New Alloys, Reverse Parking Sensors, Front Bumper Extensions.

Price- Around 44k More bringing it close to 11- 11.2 Lacs OTR Bangalore.

Outlander Launch on the 10th of October.

Not bad. If known earlier, probably i would have waited for the Climate Control. Apart from that, everything else seems to be a cosmetic change only.

Also heard of some changes to front grille. And also likely that stock HU is getting upgraded to DVD player with screen.

Climate control will anyhow will be a very sought after upgrade.

Can the current lot of Cedias be upgraded later with the Climate control feature? If yes, how easy or difficult would that be?

mav2000 · 24th September 2008, 16:10

Dont think it will be possible, as a lot of the electricals may need to be changed. If it was possible, we would have had aftermarket solutions already. There is no dearth of business acumen in India.

Maibaa · 24th September 2008, 16:24

My guess is there can be an upgrade possible for the Climate control. It could be similar to adding ABS on low end models at an extra cost.

After market add-ons are a different thing as they also void warranty.

Outlander will be priced between Pajero and Montero in 25-30L range. See http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/indian...ia-year-5.html

I hope the front grill is something really nice, usually the front grill can make or break the looks of the car. So if its nice and there is no body panels to change we can atleast look at that as an upgrade to existing cars. About the mods for a climate control, never seeen it for any car, so dont know if it will be possible. My earlier reply had nothing to do with the warranty part of it, just that it may be technically and/or financially unfeasible to do it.

reignofchaos · 24th September 2008, 17:08

If climate control can be added to the existing cars, I'd be the first one to get it done.

Finally, some concrete news on HM waking up! Thats good to hear!

Probably, the new grille used for one year before Lancer X rolled out in US. The current Cedia grille was criticised heavily in US as matching another US brand, and Mitsubishi changed it
