vinit.merchant	Yeah. Better pics. But recently it has met with two accidents in a week. Once a Tempo dashed into the rear and dented the rear bumper and broke a tail lamp. Next time, I went into a tempo, at the speed of mere 20 km/hr, which dented the Bonnet and front bumper. The same old thing, tyres locked, skid and went into the tempo. So it needs small repairs before I post better pics.	10th August 2009

vinit.merchant	The Palio 1.6 derives power from the 1596cc 'torque' engine that first saw light of day in the Siena Weekend and in the Siena 1.6. The Palio however runs the Step A version of the engine that uses a 32-bit ECU instead of the 16-bit unit. Bore and stroke dimensions have been revised to give her a 20cc increase in displacement. The unit now develops 98.6bhp at 5500rpm, a rise of 2bhp and a max twist of 137Nm at 4000rpm. Fabulous figures and unheard of for a hatch.	8th July 2008
