FIAT AVVENTURA CONCEPT 2014


The new FIAT AVVENTURA CUV (Contemporary Urban Vehicle) concept is for people who live in urban areas and have an active lifestyle. The aggressive styling with tough rugged exteriors and premium interiors makes it an ideal combination of styling and functionality that is perfect for the Indian driving conditions. The increased ride height optimized driving position and the aggressive appearance also enhances the style and makes it a stand out amongst competing vehicles. The protective skid plates, strips and moldings, the fitted functional roof bars, and the spare wheel mounted externally on a special swiveling carrier with a body colored cover, makes the side image of the FIAT AVVENTURA a truly unique one.

DATSUN - 'GO' - REVIEW


The Datsun GO is here! Well, not here as in the USA, but at least its back. Here’s Nissan’s third brand Datsun as it reenters the spotlight in Delhi, India. This cutesy little runabout is called the Datsun GO. The all-new Datsun GO will be on sale in India in early 2014.


Powered by a 1.2-liter engine connected to a five-speed manual transmission, the Datsun GO is meant to be an extremely frugal, inexpensive vehicle of good quality. I think the 1.2-liter engine is similar to the one used in the Nissan Micra. There is no official word on horsepower, but I know that the Nissan Micra produces between 64 and 78 hp in normal trim, so I would assume similar for the Datsun GO. It will be locally produced and will cost under INR 400,000 (under $6,700). India, Russia, South Africa and Indonesia will get the Datsun GO in 2014.

Datsun Go D INR 3.25 lakh

Datsun GO A INR 3.61 lakh

Datsun GO T INR 3.86 lakh
