13 Reasons why Tata Nano is better than M800A/C
Tata Nano LX vs Maruti 800AC
1. On road Price
2.37 Lacs
2.47 Lacs
2. Fuel Efficiency
24Kmpl
16Kmpl
3. Engine capacity per cylinder
312cc
265.3cc
4. Engine Compression Ratio
9.5:1
8.8:1
5. Size of the Car
3099*1495*1652
3335*1440*1405
6. Power Steering
Yes
No
7. Power to Weight Ratio
35Bhp for 635Kgs
37Bhp for 683Kgs
8. Fog Lamps
Yes
No
9. Central Locking
Yes
No
10. Tyres
Front: 135*70; Rear: 155*65
Front and Rear: 145*70
11. Ground Clearance
180mm
170mm
12. Turning Radius
4m
4.4m
13. Metallic colors + Flashy colors
Yes
No
Hope the Points mentioned above are clear to all. However I would like to give some clarity on some of the points mentioned above.
· Engine Capacity – Higher the engine capacity of cylinder higher the output power
· Compression ration and Power to weight ratio – more or less similar. Both specify the pulling power of the cars.
· Tyres: Nano has smaller tyres in the front which assures good turning radius and swifter driving in city traffic conditions. Also the broader the rear tyres ensure stability at high speeds. M800 has same set of tyres in front and back which would cause over steering very easily.
Conclusion: The points portrayed speak only about the points in which Nano beats M800; it doesn’t means that Nano is better than M800 in all means. In short, both are best in their own way.

Hyundai Eon - Perfect small car

Hyundai Eon is the latest arrival in the small car (A) segment of Indian Car Market. As of today (16-Dec-2011) Eon is the smallest car launched by Hyundai for the Indian Market. So I chose it to be the best car to start my review activity again!
First point - With meagre capacity greater than M800 or Alto - The car was perfectly placed with an extra ordinary power and mileage in the segment.
Well! coming to power the car churns out an amzing 55Bhp of output power @ 5500rpm, which would allow us to reach 100Kph much earlier than any of the cars in the segment. Even when the engine churns out abnormal power the engine remains conservative. With an average mileage of 19Kmpl astonishes the consumers of this segment. The runner-up model in this segment even gives out 15kmpl on an average.
The price of the model is also convincing - much equivalent to the other competitors and to be honest with the power-mileage ratio the price is very reasonable ranging from 3.5lacs to 4.5lacs,point to be noted that Alto 800cc version ranges from 2.75Lacs to 3.5
The Ergonomics of the car also ensures the stability even at higher speeds. Styling of the car is also excellent combination to its specifications.
Conclusion:
Hyundai Eon is the perfect blend of Style, Ergonomics and power assuring the best buy for the money.
Volkswagen: New Comer to Indian Market
Volkswagen has finally made it way into India with all new feel of Art of Style for the Indian professional car Lovers.Volkswagen had a long time idea about launching its car into Indian Market which has now been achieved by the company.
Currently the company has launched only 3 cars:
- Jetta
- Passat
- Touareg
Welcome!!! Volkswagen!!!
Tata Nano - Not like the rest, to be honest best too...
Tata Nano - world's familiar car name for being the cheapest car in the world. The Euro ncap rating of 4 has added up overwhelming expectations too...
( it is to be noted that i10, swift also have rating of 4 and alto has just 3 in a scale of 5 for Euro ncap)
The Tata Nano carries a engine which is as small as that of a share auto in cities. it is just .2 litres smaller than Alto. so its right to compare it with the Alto.
Alto is a small car however Nano is a well built share auto says many. but its not so. Tata is very careful in building the car too but due to the cost efficiency limitation they cant build a better car rather than this.
it is also to be noted that alto has better length then nano however the width and height makes us to feel alto a cramped one.
also it is not worthy to compare alto with nano. so lets compare it with the premium commuter motorcycles say honda cbr250r, huh! that means stupid but should think of cbr250r with 5 seats and having a roof. cool hun! ( just for fun)
the real comparitive vehicle for nano is a 3 wheeler auto rickshaw which costs more than 1.5lacs same to nano. so what? nano gives you better deal for loans too!
The 35bhp and 48nm torque makes the car the best companion for beginners in indian city traffic, alto has 46bhp and 62nm torque.
My suggestion is Tata Nano is not the one which has to be neglected instead a masterpiece of technology at its best. Rather than criticising it stand in the neutral part and evaluate the car you will understand.
Hats off!!! TATA...

Followers of Tata Nano
After the Launch of new Tata Nano, the Leading Indian car manufacturers as well as World car manufacturers has planned to launch Cheaper cars.
Indian cars are normally cheaper and will have good mileage. This is the main reason they have good value across the world (not in terms of money).
The cars which is said to be launched very soon similar to Tata Nano are:
Volkswagen:
Volkswagen is planning to launch its cheap variety of UP cars in India with minor modifications in the design and interiors of the car.
The Car is expected to Hit the market by November 2009.
The branded name will surely hit the Market with Great success for its better quality and Efficiency at a cheaper price.
Bajaj:
Bajaj,One of the Leading manufacturers of Indian Bikes has decided to have its expertise in Car manufacturing also.
The Bajaj has said that the mileage would be twice more efficient than any bother cars in the world and the price of the car would be half of the price of the cars that is available other than Nano.
The Bajaj has collaborated with "Nissan" and "Renault" for the concept to be proven.
This shows that Indian Auto market Grows well and Steady.

Skoda Fabia - Gorgeous Sporty

Skoda Fabia, a successful car from the world leader Skoda a Czech manufacturer, who understood the desires of the Indian automobile industry and strategically launched Fabia into India.
The car was actually launched for the C-Segment, but due to the lack of competency Skoda didn't want to compete with C-Segment, however the car has power equivalent only to the B+ segment.
Before starting, I would like to mention that comparing with other cars is nonetheless for the Skoda Fabia. It is unique and has unique features compared to other cars. First thing is the brand name of the manufacturers which has been kept at a level high for the car.
Followed by the quality level of the car, the quality standards was kept at the best and sure you wont find differences between cars unless or until it is made manually. The driving comfort will be at maximum which will be over taken by the passengers who will feel heaven in the tiny hatch back.
In India Fabia is available in 8 variants - 4 Diesel and 4 Petrol. The 1422cc Diesel engine generates maximum power of 68bhp at 4000rpm with maximum torque of 155nm in the range of 1600-2800rpm. The 1198cc Petrol engine generates maximum power of 70bhp at 5400rpm with maximum torque of 108nm at 3000rpm.Th Petrol version of the Fabia loses all fame because of its smaller engine capacity, where as the Fabia Diesel creates threat to rivalries on the road with astonishing 150+ torque at as low as 1800rpm which will give sure shock pick up immediately.
Considering the mileage, the Diesel version of Fabia does not bad with 15+ kmpl of mileage in city drive. Over all crosses 17Kmpl which is the best mileage from a C-Class segment of Diesel car. Petrol version of Fabia crosses a level above and performs by providing 18.5 Kmpl.
The only thing which make us to stay behind was the price tag, which easily crosses 6L range. Bit costly but worthy buying due to the lower maintenance and excellent service provided by Skoda, Fabia will never fade in its worthiness.
Tata Nano vs New Alto 800 - Fight Again?
The latest news in the Indian cars market is the new Maruti Alto 800. This is the first time real revamping in the design of Alto for which Maruti is eagerly looking forward the sales figure to go high.
Read more »
The New Alto 800 looks exactly like the mini A-star which was the coin for capturing all the Maruti customers to go for the better alto.
Ok before calling Maruti Alto 800 as the better alto lets compare it with Alto K10. Ufff. Alto K10 beats Alto 800 in all aspects except that Alto 800 carries a new design. So what only the exterior is different interiors is again not so exciting. It gives you the same old feel of getting in to a Alto K10.
So which one is the right car to compare yes our Tata Nano LX (to make any car in the world superior we can just compare with nano) because no cars are sold @ a price as low as 2 Lacs.
Ok, the New alto 800 carries 3 cylinder engine with 798cc and goodness of 47.5bhp and 69nm support the engine like the older one. No significant change. Again Nano with 2 cylinder but with 612cc with 37bhp and 51nm is far behind the 800cc engine.
Ok! The price factor was also one of the factor putforth by maruti with Alto starting from 2.4Lacs and 3Lacs for the Higher end version. But nano is avalable from 1.6Lacs to 2 Lacs (Both are in ex-showroom).
On-road price for Maruti Alto will reach 3.5Lacs and Nano will be around 2.5Lacs nearly 1 Lac lesser than the new alto.
So there is a huge price difference and there is no difference in the engine specs. So again Alto doesnot compete with the Nano.
So for whom the redefinition happened? Is there any fight that Alto is expected to manage?
Yes, The real fight of Alto is with Eon!
Will be updating you soon with all details...

SANTRO ecoLPG - Bifuel Marvel

Hi all,
It's been a long break i posted blogs and am very happy to see you all in the new mood. Hope! you might think why i am posting about Santro which was more than 10 years old and also there were news spreading that the Santro is soon going to be stopped.
Sorry! my heart refuses to believe that Hyundai will stop this record breaker in India (Hyundai - if you are planning to stop this car. Pls! Pls! throw away your thought) Since this car is the one which inspires not only the older but also the younger minds, due to its lowest maintenance cost and better mileage.
With all the existing features, the car is also fitted with LPG (older news though), I came to know this just a month back (too late!) when i was trying to find a better car for my friend.
On the day, when i saw the car it disturbed me and it was awe inspiring (truly better than i10).
These are all my uttering until i came to know about the all new 2011 Santro.
Ooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh! Hurrah!!!
oops! sorry! am sure that any santro fan will shout like this on hearing the news (irrespective of age).
Well what's going to be new in the 2011 Santro?
Well, it's an all new santro and hence it is also going to have it's all new outlooks. Hey! am not kidding! Hyundai has changed the looks completely.
The car will be more like a Jr. i10, but we'll surely miss the family car's homely look! as well as Gorgeous front face! However the revved up engine and the similar mileage will relax our hearts.
It seems the new car would carry same 1.1 Litre engine with peak output power of 65bhp @5500rpm (previously 63bhp@5500rpm) and max. torque of 105nm@3500rpm (97.8nm@ 3000rpm) and new improved speed of (145Kmph).
Boss! this is not just a decent figure. It's awesome from a 1.1L petrol engine. considering its rivalry Maruti Zen Estilo provides output power of 65bhp@5200rpm(awesome!) but poor torque of 84nm@3500rpm(v.poor!), which makes it fuel efficiency bit lesser than the Santro but not in the speed (150Kmph).
Even its elder sibling i10 having 1.2L engine provides peak output power of 80bhp@5200rpm and torque of 114nm@4000rpm.
Also there is no big change in the price just 15K-20K higher. Obviously at reasonable price again).
Let's welcome the new car! However don't miss the old one's if you are planning to buy the current santro you'll be the luckiest. So don't go for second thought else you'll miss the best santro ever, since a not sure 100% about the new car that is yet to be launched.
Indian Automobile Market Glows!

Indian Automobile Market
Every time when i say about Bikes in India, I'll mention about the Indian Automobile market. This is because excellent manufacturers of Automobiles needs Excellent Markets.
So I would like to mention that Indian Automobile Industry is still Glowing because of the Indian Automobile Market.
I would like to add few more highlights of Indian Automobile Market:
Proud to be an Indian!!!

FORD - ECO SPORT - Truly ECO
The Ford EcoSport is a mini sport utility vehicle (SUV), originally built in Brazil by Ford since 2003 at the Camaçari plant. A second generation concept model was launched at the 2012 Delhi Motor Show and is intended to be assembled in a new factory in Chennai, India (It's my native city)
Let's speak about the engine:
The list of powertrains includes Ford's newest, most advanced engine-the 1.0-litre EcoBoost-3 cylinder, turbocharged, cast-iron engine. Ford's decided to use cast-iron for the engine block instead of aluminium improved engine warm-up time by 50 percent. However, The 3-cylinder engine design causes inherent vibrations, which Ford overcame by incorporating a deliberately unbalanced flywheel. Employing the unbalanced flywheel conserves energy more efficiently than employing the more commonly-used balance shafts to ensure smooth running. Additionally, an internal timing belt bathed in engine oil ensures longer life and even greater efficiency. The EcoBoost engine design is quite compact, with the entire engine block's height and width dimensions comparable to an A4 size sheet of paper.
Along with the 1.0 L EcoBoost engine, the Indian market also gat a 1.5 L Ti-VCT petrol engine, which produces 108 bhp and 140 Nm. The EcoSport will also feature a 1.5L TDCi diesel engine that outputs 90bhp power and 204 Nm of torque at 2000-2750 rpm
Fuel Economy:
Real economy is determined by the fuel consumption and the ford really made it true this time also.

- 22.7 kmpl (1.5L Diesel)
- 18.9 kmpl (1.0L EcoBoost Petrol)
- 15.8 kmpl (1.5L Petrol)
Conclusion:
Ford ECO Sport is really a ECO car interm of Engine size, Engine design, Price, Mileage whatelse not?. Hence it is really a sure shot for the ford to win the market hands down.
This is not all. I want to review more about this car in my future post. Wait till then.
This is not all. I want to review more about this car in my future post. Wait till then.
My Score for Ford Eco sport
