Renault made its debut by launching Logan in India through a joint venture with Mahindra a few years ago. After it’s entry into India, Logan has somehow managed to give good competition to its rivals in mid-size segment but it failed to impress and attract more customers as expected by Renault. Now, Logan is being revamped and presented with new style.
It’s not so impressive performance and heavy price tags have forced many customers to opt for other cars than Logan. When people are going crazy for small cars in countries like India, it will be really challenging task for car manufacturers to increase the sale of mid-size sedans like Logan. So, Renault has determined to revamp and add some more frills to Logan. It will launch revamped version of Logan in next few months to take on its competitors mainly Maruti Swift Dzire. Let’s hope Renault will achieve success this time. Labels: Auto market competition, Car-Sales, Logan, Mahindra, Maruti Dzire, midsize cars, Renault, small cars
Small car segment is the fastest growing segment in India. Every car manufacturer is willing to test their fate in this segment by launching small cars in India. Global car manufacturers who had only launched mid-size sedans, luxury cars, big SUVs, MPVs and Wagon are now changing their minds and considering to launch small cars in India to capitalize on the surge in demand for small cars in Indian auto market. Volkswagen is no exception to this as it promised to launch two small cars in next four years in India.
Volkswagen made its foray into Indian market after launching luxury sedan Passat and luxury SUV Touareg later on. Realizing the growth of small car segment, it announced to launch two small cars. Volkswagen will launch Polo first in next two years. It will be priced around 5 to 6 lakhs. Many other global car manufacturers are also waiting to launch their small cars. So prices of small cars of foreign car companies may come down in future to attract the customers. Small car buyers will have more reasons to cheer about in days to come.

Maruti DZire is already desired by thousands of buyers in India. It was launched on March 26, and the company has reported that it has already sold over 5,000 units in this financial year. Maruti’s impressive sales record seems to be going over the graph. After the lone rider SX4 helped the company top the mid-size cars category, DZire seems to be helping sales phenomenally. The small car segment has also posted an impressive growth. With such a popular line up of cars, it is time that Maruti enhanced it with some global cars. We already know that A-star is coming in October. But a dash of luxury will spice up the Maruti portfolio very much. Labels: Car-Sales, Maruti Dzire, Maruti SX4, midsize cars, new cars, small cars

It’s great news for the hunchback car Maruti SX4. It has topped sales in the midsize car segment beating the likes of the elegant Honda City ZX and the very fuel-efficient Hyundai Verna (especially the diesel version). When the SX4 was launched, it was recognized easily because it looked ‘different’. As with all cars, some people liked the design and some didn’t. And now, with news of its successful sales, we know that ‘many’ liked it.
Suzuki is finally growing out of its small car image in India. An image created by the popular Maruti 800 and Alto. Labels: Car-competition, Car-Sales, Maruti, midsize cars

The Nawabi Lucknow-ees had a taste of auto fair over the weekend. It was organised by a major newspaper company. The enthusiastic lot of people thronged Balrampur gardens over the two days. Many small car and midsize car manufactures like Mitsubishi, Honda, Maruti, Skoda, Hyundai, Tata Motors, Toyota, and Mahindra presented their products to the eager crowd. Many first time drivers got to test drive their favourite cars and the seasoned ones tried almost all of them just for fun. The auto fair in Kolkata at Salt Lake Stadium just got over on March 16 and that turned out to be a popular event as well. This year has been packed with quite a lot of auto fairs and other related shows and exhibitions. Labels: auto fair, Auto-Exhibition, Auto-Shows, midsize cars, small cars
