Yes , The sedanswift dzire is not discontinued .But MSIL has cleverly hunted the herd mentality of Indian buyers.They launched a compact sedan to avail sub 4 meter excise benefit, named it swift dzire again.So the admins.correctly nominated it here as a 2112 launch .Sad part is that MSIL didn't passed the excise benefits to its custemers , and very few people know these facts .But voters here showed it its place.
On TAI atleast , it is revealed that good numbers doesn't mean good product always.

I have driven My Uncle's Duster for around 40Kms. I found that its a smooth car a little slow on the second gear but as you shift to the third its a rocket. I may be wrong here.
What I felt bad was that I couldn't get the feel of a SUV.. But it was quite a smooth and soothing drive.

Duster VFM?? Then what would you say for Ertiga? ![[roll]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Roll.gif "Roll Eyes [roll]")
Finally Duster is TAICOTY followed by Ertiga, Quanto and Storme.
I wish I could recast my vote. Realized it late that the strome is such a great machine.
Cogratulations duster for the trophy
One thing needs clarification here that less votes does not mean bad car.Q3 and camray are also good even though they they have received lesser votes than alto and dzire.

Yup. The polling has come to an end now and I’m glad to announce that The Automotive India Car of the Year Award goes to…Renault Duster! Must admit, last one month has been full of excitement looking at the neck to neck competition which was surprisingly only between the UVs. I intentionally didn’t mention my choice earlier but Ertiga took my vote for being an all-rounder product at a spot on price tag. Not that Duster isn’t capable; I just hope that Renault takes this massive fan following of Duster as a point of motivation to provide an overall quality product and lives up to the buyers’ expectations in long term. We will get in touch with Renault India shortly to hand over the first ever ‘The Automotive India Car of the Year’ Trophy.

Finally Game Over!
The excitement which we had to check out this thread just see the leading contestant will be missed; atleast by me. Nwayz congrats to Duster. Thought I had voted for the Ertiga, Duter missed the '7seater' quality which Ertiga have(although the last two seats are useless) Hope Duster will be having a grand party along with Ertiga, Strome and Quanto.

First of all no hard feelings for any Ertiga owners/lovers for my above statement.
And yes you are correct. I was refering to a family of all adults. Secondly, they say that this is a car for 5+2 people. Now according to me if one buys a car; he/she plans to keep it atleast 3-5years. So in that span of time; wont that '2' grow up and atleast reach that '5' category?![[:D]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Big%20Smile.gif "Big Smile [:D]")
Just my calculations thats it.
