        Cruze is a great diesel car, you will love it if you want a powerful sedan. But the XUV is actually a crossover (between a car and an SUV). So.. do you want a car or a crossover? Cars are good for fast driving, and Cruze has good quality material. SUVs are for showing off mostly, and then driving on bad roads comfortably. What is your need? :)

        Ashish, the XUV top model bookings have stopped. Too much demand, they were not prepared to make so many of them. dwsAuto will get the XUV on Friday or so, but it will be the 2wd top end version, not 4wd

        Petrol Variant? Fuel efficient? then you can buy K-series Engine fitted car which includes A-star,Alto K10,Wagon R,Estilo and the engine is very reliable combining both power and mileage,so if you still want better FE,Alto-K10 or A-star is good cars and fun to drive with peppier engine

        guys… i chose particularly to leave out Bentley, Rolls Royce, Lamborghini, Ferrari, Maserati, Porsche, Lotus, Aston Martin, Noble etc… They are super/hyper cars….the point was to see which car we would actually buy for everyday use….

        Pranay : Lambo’s are supposed to be mad n outrageous n vulgar n difficult to drive.. From what I’ve heard of the Aventador, Lambo has lost the madness… So the Murcielago is the one I wud go for…and good to see a Jaguar fan…And a Bentley Brooklands… Simply Mind Blowing !!

        Pranay : Obviously I have no first hand Lambo experience.. I’m basing my opinions on popular reviewers around the world have said.. that the Aventador is missing the X factor… Its much more civilized than its predecessors apparently… seeing the specs, its hard to believe that story.. but…

        True K10 engine is very powerful along with it…There is no Substitute to it…it’s torque and BHP is very rational compared to other car’s of this Segment…

        @Sathya Narayan,The DDLI you mentioned is a diesel engine or the petrol one??.Alto K10 is in market for good engine and mileage performance for low budget customers who look forward to have a good engine so it is made to keep the costs low and that too the interior quality are enough.

        Buying a first small car in india is more of an emotional matter.. Here Maruti fit’s well in our hearts..Though spark has better comfort, interiors.. It’s what the running cost per km as well as availability of spare parts and service network, decide the game..Lastly, i’m very much impressed with the performance and economy of k10′s engine..
