Remember Maruthi udyog bavan was infact started to build cars for cheaper rates. Brainchild of Sanjay Gandhi(Late). They endedup in releasing a car for 2 lacs (it was supposed to be 30 thousand rs). you never know!!!! Lets try a wait and watch game.. coming back to About Swift. Yes its about 5.5lacs but its fully loaded (Airbags and added safety features). But reason for choosing indian/indian based manufacturers is bcos the spares are cheaper than Korean cars.. 4 both the cars(indica/swift) interior space is More.

Thanks for your visit and comment. Yeah, a lot of people suggest Indica but I have enquired drivers and they say that if I ride the car for more than 70 kms, Indica is the best bet. I do like Indica's design and it is very spacious. Regarding Swift, I am still considering the price. Is it not 4.5 to 5.5 lacs? And by the by, does any of you have heard about TATA rolling out cars for Rs.1 Lac by 2008. Is it true? Hey Ananth! Thanks for your visit and comment.

You can expect a Diesel version of it this year end or early next year. But mileage wise Indica is the best. There are some glitches in the vehicle ( like suspension noise) but you can get over it by proper maintanence. I heard the mileage is above 15kM/lit. Karthick,
