Got this news letter regarding Auto Expo but unfortunately there wasn't any info regarding the two wheeler market Hope to get some preview info of the two wheeler section. Meanwhile sharing what I got... Don't keel me for posting something related to four wheelers on a motorcycle forum.. Just posting because it's related to Auto Expo. Will post if I get any info regarding the two wheel section

"Auto makers from around the world are getting ready for the big Indian auto market and the Delhi Auto Expo 2010. There are at least 7 new small car models coming in the year 2010 itself. Here is the list of all cars coming to India next year that will also be showcased at the Auto Expo from January 05 – January 11, 2010.

Nissan is ready to introduce its small hatchback model Micra next year. This will be the first small car from Nissan and is expected to be developed on the new global platform. The new model will be powered by 1.2L petrol and 1.5L diesel engine priced at Rs 4 lakh and above.

Ford unveiled its small car model Figo last month which will also be showcased at the Auto Expo and more details of the car will be shown. The company has not revealed its prices so far or any other technical details but it is expected to have 1.2L petrol and 1.4L Duratorq diesel engine.

Maruti launched a number of new models this year and is currently revamping all its models with the new K-series engines. It has a strong small car portfolio with models like Alto, Wagon R, Ritz and A-Star. It will be bringing in the new M800 model by 2012 with the new K-series engine so that it meets the new emission norms. However, it does have plans to bring its new premium sedan Kizashi to India. It is expected that it will showcase the model at the Auto Expo.

Other models expected at the Auto Expo are BMW 5 series, Hyundai Santa Fe, Volvo XC60, Toyota Prius and Tata Indicruz. Tata’s new electric model of Indica Vista may also be put for display but the company has not confirmed its India launch so far."

If you look through some of the automobile magazines/blogs/websites from the past few weeks or which a couple a month old, you can expect to find news about most of the mentioned car models coming to India. On the contrary, most bike manufacturers have only speculated about launching bikes in a particular segment, or of a particular type.

Possible reasons could be: They want the hype itself to be a selling factor, do not want other manufacturers to start working on a competitive product and give a tough fight early on, or it could be affecting their stock market postions. Plus the newsletter gives only a preview of some of the models that can be expected there and not all of them. So we can still keep our hopes high

Just my take on it. And as you said, until an update on two wheelers....

That's a great idea. Would be a huge event. Sadly, I cannot make it for the event.

MG

Thanks for the response guys.

First thing. 7th & 8th are not Saturday and Sunday, 10th and 11th are but since it will be the last days of the expo so it is almost ruled out because I guess most of the outstation members will be here for the first few days of expo.

The place is not final and can be decided based on everyone's preference and group strength.

Ride which inflammable proposed is also ruled out as it would unnecessarily attract a lot of attention on road with such a huge group and we might face trouble with traffic police and all. Although we can meet somewhere outside city limits and go to Manesar McDees.

I'm expecting more outstation members to participate in this thread so as to get a clear picture of the dates when most of us will be available.

Yeah right buddy....let me grace you with some Devilish Magic when we meet next

Very true, we can plan a meet on weekdays as well...morning or evening...or if the date is fixed then I can even apply for leave from office.


+1 to that and I dont think any of us would like that isnt it

I doubt that MG. Coz I & others from Mumbai were planning to visit on a weekend itself & we'll be booking our flights by this coming weekend. We'll be taking leaves in December for tours & 31st. So most prolly we'll be visiting on a weekend only, plz take that in consideration.

Most working members from outstation will also prefer this I guess.

Considering the amount of excitement there is going to be for this g2g, I guess the Dhaba wud a small and a hard to find place for outsiders.
I think the old xbhp lane ie behind JMC or India gate would be a better place.

The Dhabha should be the ideal place. Chanakyapuri is over policed and would attract unecessary attention.
