Wow a seven seater car under just 4 lakhs! Hope they get it right atleast this time!

Will this car bear the new K12 engine. In the newspaper like you have written, they have mentioned the 1200cc engine which will comply the bharat stage IV norms, that means the K12 engine right?

Yes Akash!

Its a K12 Engine.

But what is this replacement for ? Omni or Versa ?

 

[RSM]

But why Robots are displayed in Auto Expo?

 

[Akash]

guys i have 2 options. either to attend on 8th or 9th. Both the dates have their disadvantages..
8th- only 4 hrs for general visitors. I want to know if its possible to cover everything in that time.
9th- t will be a weekend so lots of rush.
Guys drop in your suggestion fast. I have to book my tickets now.
Plz be fast.

 

[RSM]

I would suggest go on 9th. Yes there will be more rush, but you will have more time. Otherwise you might some important thing.

Covering the complete Expo in limited time depends person to person. Last time it took a lot of time for me because I didn't covered everything at one go. I rest to had lunch etc there itself so it all took some time. In my personal opinion, I would say 8th is much suitable compared to the weekend because there will be less flood of people, Also you can enjoy each car taking your own time, Otherwise on 9th it will much difficult to stop at one place to even observe a single car.

@350Z- even i was thinking of the same but the only thing i am worried abt is that on 8th i will have only 4 hr and are they sufficient to cover have a look all over?

 

[350Z]

As I said, It really depends upon you if you can cover everything in that much time. IMO, Four hours should be sufficient enough but reach at the venue before time so that you don't waste any moment.
