I hope for the day inexpensive/small sports cars will be available in the Indian auto market and claim a sizeable market share, unlike the sea of tiny dabbas with wheels on the roads now.

Even maruti 800 would have taken atleast 5-6 years to get popular and I10 is just 3 years old.

Yes, it’s true that Hyundai i10 is getting a common sight now-a-days but it typically cannot be compared with the success of Maruti 800. The 800 was released back in the times when affording a car was itself a big deal, unlike the situation right now in the market.

Let me update this thread with some of the newly launched successful cars: Mahindra XUV500, Hyundai Verna Fluidic, Honda Brio, Toyota Etios, Honda Jazz, Maruti Suzuki New Swift etc. and it seems like Eon is soon also going to be included in this list.

AMG,

You cannot strike of Sumo.

May be you are aware of Sumo Grande only.

Sumo was succesful in its time and was the fastest to reach 1,00,000 mark (around 1995 period)
