Driven by the news of increasing road tax, car manufacturers are luring customers with heavy discounts and offers. The government has announced a 2% increase of life time motor vehicle road-tax by the end of this month. The increased road tax is proposed to be effective from 1st August.

Just a month ago, during high inflation, Hyundai Motors came up with the exchange and upgrade offer and now comes Maruti Suzuki.

Maruti has announced an exchange and upgrade offer in response to the increase in road tax. Maruti is offering an exchange bonus of Rs 25,000 on upgrading any Maruti car to SX4. This is one of the recent cars by Maruti that has attracted a massive number of people with its muscular looks and classic European style. The looks and style holds true for the SX4 caption “Men are Back”.

Maruti SX4 is the biggest and most spacious car in the segment with the highest ground clearance and steering mounted controls. It is a car that everyone will love to own.

So, why wait for the car to get costlier? Just rush into a Maruti Showroom and request for the exchange offer?

Don’t you think this is a good deal?

Global warning is at its peak and India is still far away to combat with the situation. Major air pollution is created by automobile exhausts which can be minimized by the use of green cars. Hybrid cars are good alternative for diesel or petrol vehicle. But these cars are seeking government’s attention.

The customs duty and the tax imposed on them are really high. It is the high time for the government to take necessary steps to encourage auto makers for the local production of hybrid cars.

India has only one hybrid car ‘Civic Hybrid’ recently launched by Honda Motors. The number will definitely increase if the government drives some policy in favour of these cars. It can cut down the customs duty on such cars which will encourage the car manufacturer to roll out these cars or permit imports at a lower duty for those auto companies who assure to manufacture hybrid cars for a specified period of time.
