Weekly Wrap Up: Merc C Class, BMW M twins launched, Hamilton clinches World Champion title in F1 and other happenings

The last week of the November was hijacked by Europeans. The three arch rivals from Germany and a British racer were making highlights in the Indian auto portals and magazines, while the enthusiasts were definitely going gaga behind these. Lewis Hamilton, the Mercedes driver became the F1 Champion for year 2014, and his teammate Nico Rosberg ended up as a runner-up. In India, Mercedes-Benz launched the all new C-Class, bringing the much needed breeze in the segment. On the other hand, the arch nemesis BMW launched M3 and M4 in India pumping the much needed adrenaline into the high performance segment in the country. The third and the most popular in India at this point, Audi has reached 10,000 sales mark in 2014 and celebrating the same by offering some tempting offers.

Well, while all these highlights might not seem tempting to many of us, but a much likely Rs. 5 price cut in petrol and diesel can give all of us a long lasting smile. Another good news is for those, who were waiting to buy an EcoSport through CSD or Police canteen, the compact SUV has now been made available through CSD.  Japanese brand Suzuki is planning to launch 6 new vehicles by 2017, which includes next gen Swift and Dzire, Celerio Diesel, next gen Grand Vitara, SX4 Cross and newly developed YRA hatch. We are expecting that all of these vehicles will make their way to the Indian roads. Amidst these preparation for new Suzukis, the popular tall boy hatch WagonR reaches the milestone of 15 lac units in India.

The test mules of the next gen Ford Figo has also been caught on Indian roads hinting an early next year launch. Suzuki’s upcoming hatch YRA also caught testing at different locations, which suggest that Suzuki can launch the product by 2015-end. Toyota India has recalled 5,384 units of the Corolla Altis sedan to replace a faulty component in air intake system. Read all these news in detail in our weekly wrap-up report.
