Top five small cars coming to India soon

After the many new car launches and facelifts during the festive season, the automobile industry is gearing up for year-end and early-2016 launches. There are many models in every segment while the small car segment seems to have more members waiting to enter. We have compiled a list of the top five small cars launching soon in India.

Tata Kite



Codenamed Kite, the replacement of Tata's ageing Indica underpins the X0 platform and is expected to get a fresh styling, unlike any other current Tata passenger cars. From the video starring Tata's new global brand ambassador, Lionel Messi, it appears the hatchback will get a signature front grille with smoked headlamps and a fresh rear-end styling.

Tata Kite is likely to include a new 1.05-litre three-cylinder common-rail diesel motor that can churn out 64.1bhp and 140Nm of torque, and an all-new 1.2-litre petrol engine. The Kite is speculated to get an e-clutch system similar to AMT that allows drivers to use manual transmission for the first gear without using the clutch. The global unveil is scheduled in the first week of December 2015.

California police officer made a traffic stop but wrote no ticket. The car had no driver.

Lots of speculation around who would play the male lead opposite Sonam Kapoor in Battle for Bittora has been doing the rounds ever since Anil Kapoor announced that he would be adapting the novel by the same name into a movie. The film would most likely be directed by Shashank Ghosh and produced by Rhea Kapoor and it would feature Sonam as the female lead. Battle for Bittora is the story of a young girl who is forced into contesting for Lok Sabha elections by her grandmother. The girl, named Jinni in the novel, is contending for the post with ex-royal Zain Altaf Khan who is shown to be an idealist Jinni is attracted to.

Post Khoobsurat’s success, rumours were rife that Fawad Khan would play Zain’s role in the movie considering that he would perfectly fit the bill! But several complications later the Pakistani heartthrob confirmed that he won’t be a part of the movie. Now the hunt is on for a new male lead.


We recently caught up with Sonam and asked her who she’d cast as Zain in Battle for Bittora. She said, “Zain has to be Muslim and capable of doing sher-o-shayari, so how about Salman Khan?! I mean obviously he is not going to do the film but it will be so awesome. He would be saying something and I would go “Oh My God Salman Khan is saying all these things to me!” I think either Salman or Shah Rukh Khan would be great but mostly Salman!”
