Hindustan Motors, the manufacturers of the grand old Ambassador, has always been associated with the past. But the company now wants to change its image and cater to the niche market. This actually sounds great. Please keep the updates coming you might say. Alright folks!!! Here is more- The new vehicle is likely to be along the lines of James Bond- like automobiles!

So what is this James bond like automobiles? Can it be Aston Martins or Alfa Romeo or even sleeker cars? Many of James Bond movies feature Aston Martin Cars, because of its British origin like that of the country of origin of Bond himself.

In fact, the association between the car and the character is so strong that, a mere mention of the suave cars immediately reminds Aston Martin and James Bond manning its wheel.

Hindustan Motors currently has an ongoing partnership with Mitsubishi Motors. The Japanese company has met with limited success in India. It offers imported models like the SUVs Mitsubishi Outlander and Mitsubishi Montero and Pajero and sedans like Cedia and Lancer.

But if we look back, Hindustan Motors has a track record of catering to the creamy layer of the society through its wonder car Ambassador. It has been on the face of wealth in India for many decades now.

Whatever Hindustan Motors has it in its mind, but we all are waiting with bated breath to see what the new offering from Hindustan Motors could look like? Did someone just say Aston Martin was on its way to India???

Watch this space for more!!!

It is fitted with a powerful 7.3-litre V12 engine that delivers 700 bhp power and 750 Nm torque.

It’s little surprising to know that the manufacturer ‘Aston Martin’ who is well-known for combining power, beauty and soul on wheels has revealed its new ‘ugliest Car in the World’. The 1980s Aston Martin Lagonda known to be the ugliest cars in the world appears in new avatar at the ongoing Geneva Motor Show. The new Lagonda is far ahead of its old model in ugliness. It now comes with four-seater, 4WD concept car.

It is surprising because it has unveiled the car at a time when the car industry is facing a major downturn. Contradictorily, the company has manufactured some of the compellingly beautiful cars in the world like the DBS, DB9, Vanquish and the Vantage.

The company feels that the revival of the iconic Lagonda will bring performance luxury in the car market around the world for the model and will further increase the brand reach across the globe. Aston Martin is planning to sell the Lagonda in the international markets like Russia, the Middle East, South America, China, and India. Yes in India too! But it is difficult to say that how many buyers it will grab in the depressed market condition when people are opting for small, cheap, and fuel efficient cars. Atleast not in the cost and style conscious market like India.
