 Low capacity, Lighter, sufficient with better Power Rear
Engine to reduce the transmission length using a
balancer shaft.
 4 Speed Manual Gear Box
 All Aluminum Engine
 Higher thermal conductivity than cast iron, Lighter and
so better mileage
 Engine Management System by Bosch
 Superb control over emission and smooth acceleration.

19.  Better ride than Maruti 800.
 Safety requirements are adequately met.
 Single Wiper in place of two.
 Cost effective yet functionality is met
 Tube less Tires
 Less length but more inner cabin space due to height.
Comfortable leg room.
