Chevrolet Beat diesel likely to hit Indian roads this month

With diesel selling at a significant 33% lower than petrol, most car companies look eager to cash in on the price difference between the fuels by launching diesel models in the Indian market. Among these is General Motors which plans to unveil the Chevrolet Beat’s diesel version this month.

The car will be powered by a newly developed 1L, 3 cylinder diesel engine. If true, this will set it apart from other diesel-run models in the country that come fitted with a 1.2 litre engine.

The engine will have a peak torque of 140 Nm @ 1,750 rpm and low-end peak torque of 100 Nm @ 1,250 rpm.

According to ARAI, the vehicle will deliver a mileage of 23.5 kmpl. Keeping in mind the price of Beat’s petrol variant, which was launched in 2010, the price of the car is estimated to be around Rs 4 lakh.

Production of the diesel engine has been on in Talegaon in Maharashtra since June 2011.

Diesel cars have seen a remarkable jump in popularity in India over the past few years, and have become the fastest way for auto companies to rule the number game. For instance, earlier in the year the Maruti Suzuki SX4 diesel was launched with a price tag of Rs 7.74 - 8.62 lakh- a move that saw its sale zoom ahead.

Overall, the fast-growing dominance of diesel run vehicles in India has seen car sales numbers getting dramatically altered.

The most notable example is the steady loss of market share by cars such as Honda City that were once bestsellers. Once the undisputed ruler in the sedan segment, the absence of a diesel variant saw the City lose out to rivals that were available in diesel options.


Force Motors Hopes That Its Suv Will Be A Game Changer For The Company

Force Motors has christened its upcoming SUV as Force “One” and has confirmed that the SUV will be launched within a month’s time. Force Motors has also revealed a new logo for its passenger vehicle division.

Better known for its basic and utilitarian products in the commercial vehicle space, Force wants to break into the passenger car market and is developing an all-new vehicle aiming to do just that. Though the product hasn’t been revealed yet, the spy shots indicate that the Force SUV is based on the Foday Guangdong Explorer III, a little-known Chinese SUV. Force Motors is understood to have bought the tooling for the body while the interiors are sourced from Thailand.

The company hasn’t officially revealed the pictures of the SUV, but as seen from the spy pictures, the Force One’s boxy shape isn’t at all appealing and falls far short of the styling standards we have come to expect.

The body-on-frame chassis is made of robust ‘C-in-C’ construction and suspended with coil springs in the rear and a torsion bar set-up in the front. However, at the heart of this vehicle is the Mercedes OM 611 which develops 140bhp and 35kgm of torque via a five-speed manual transmission.

This 2.2-litre common-rail turbo-diesel is the same unit that powered the W210 E-class when it was first launched in 2000; though this engine is now a generation old, it still meets the latest Bharat Stage IV norms and promises better performance and refinement than homegrown engines from Mahindra and Tata. Approximately a year later, the SUV will be offered as a four-wheel drive option. The SUV will be launched with a price tag ranging from Rs 10-12 lakh.

So now, this world champion is expanding its wings in Indian motorbike market. T is loaded with 1198cc engine Testastretta 11° Desmodromic liquid-cooled L-Twin and 4 valves per cylinder. It generates a power of 162bhp at 9,500rpm and its torque is 127.5Nm at 8,000rpm. It features Mitsubishi electronic fuel injection system, Mikuni elliptical throttle bodies with Ride by Wire.

“It is a naked bike because it is essential, light and agile; a cruiser because it is imposing and also comfortable with a passenger; and a sports bike because it has a powerful heart, muscles, and levels of performance that take your breath away,” says Mirko Bordiga, CEO Ducati Asia Pacific.

Indian motorbike market has seen successful stories of luxury bikes, so Ducati Diavel can expect a warm welcome.
