.
the Suzukis semi suv your saying could be the ESCUDA...

not sure of the tuscani or the azera but i am pretty sure they will be able t bring out a 2 door accent (verna)..it is the ghettoest looking car ever ..lookin dat the trend of launches foreign car makers in india (skoda lauching the new octavia in a diff name, 2 fiestas with diff names etc) Verna i feel is the most probable car for them....

hey all, just heard on the news on TV from the Auto Expo, that SKODA will be launching 6 cars in this year! (6 = new cars and diff variants) and the FABIA is DEFINATELY coming this year! what they launching first will be the FABIA Sedan, but i just loved the Fabia Hatch vRS the best!

If they price it up as a Premium Hatchbackcar, i think there will be lots of takers in India. In cities like Mumbai, and other places, nowadays parking is becoming a great difficulty, and the traffic is hectic, and ppl dont have much parking space in their homes, and wud like to have a luxury car, but dont want it to be too big and lengthy... in this case the Skoda Fabia Hatchback wud be the perfect example!

one thing for sure, like the Laura and Tucson, i would Definately be the first one on this board to buy the Skoda Fabia Hatch! this wud be for my wife, and as her running around is not much, wud gift her the vRS so that i can take it out for spins time to time!
At a price of 7 Lk for the vRS, while giving all the luxury features like Sunroof, Electric Windows and Mirror, TCS, ABS, Leather, etc, i would say that is a good price for it.

here r some pics to get u started drooling on...

The Suzuki SWIFT SEDAN:



Guyz, Toyota's FORTUNER will be priced around 21-24Lks! it is positioned besides the Terracan and X-Trail. Toyota's offering beside the CRV and Tucson is the Toyota RAV4. There is one Rav4 in hyd, and it looks real good!



And here is the Toyota Fortuner! lovely vehicle!




I hope u have liked the pictures!

I was never game for Toyota.

they suck when it comes to making cars.

Honda is ok.

What I am waiting for is the blow from Nissan.

Their Infiniti fx45 and nissan cars in N.america has me drooling.

yh fortuner looks fanstastic ...so does the all new V6 accord...toyota has one mre SUV to its repertoire bt doest sound all tht good a strategy to have up one's sleeve to woo indian consumers who have a tendency to lean towards smaller conpact cars...bt yaris holds an ace for toyota.....bt one car that defines the future of indian car market is TATA's 1 lac rs car ...abated breaths i suppose!

you are right its supposed to be 2.0L engine. The articles have written that its even bigger than the 2.0 octavia engine.

THe sports version is pretty appealing though it comes at a price.
