Suzuki RM-Z250 Mx2 India: Fuel Injection Bike Comes in 2010

Suzuki is a company known in India for its tough and durable bikes. Two years ago the company stole "a march in MX1" with its RM-Z450 fuel injection bike. Now Suzuki announces its MX2 motocross bike, the 2010 Suzuki RM-Z250.

The dirt bike features a battery-less fuel system with a 43 mm throttle-body and progressive throttle linkage, all controlled by a 16-bit computer system. The entire setup is backed up by a lightweight magneto-generator. The RM-Z250 also provides torque and power greater than before.

The frame has been redesigned to deliver better suspension which in turn gives improved traction. The 2010 Suzuki RM-Z250 features fuel injection and an aluminium fuel tank. It even comes with new foot rests and black number boards.

The 2010 Suzuki RM-Z250 has a fresh new look and is expected to be available from any of the authorized Suzuki off-road dealers by this autumn. A recommended retail price will be announced just prior to the bike's launch.

Hyundai i20 CRDi India: Diesel Car to Be Launched Soon

Hyundai Motors India Limited is planning to launch the i20 CRDi diesel model in India. The model has already been spotted doing test drive near the Chennai plant. The company may launch either of the two options of the 1.4L CRDi diesel engine producing 75PS or 90PS. The new model is expected in the showrooms by sometime in July 2009. However, there is no official statement from the company so far regarding the launch, specifications or the price.

Honda has recently launched its small car model Jazz in the Indian market which has been perceived as an over-priced model. On the other hand, i10 and i20 have been well-received in this segment and a new diesel model of Hyundai's premium hatchback will lend the much needed leverage in the sales. The new CRDi model is expected to be priced nearly Rs. 70,000 /- to Rs. 100,000 /- over and above the existing price of its petrol variant.

Honda Jazz Small Car India: Price, Features, Specifications

Why groan when you can grin? Why shrug when you can leap? Why plan when you can be spontaneous? Why be careful when you can be carefree? Why not sing a song. Why not tap your fingers. Why not whistle and hum. Why not smile for once.

Honda SIEL on Wednesday- 10th June 09, launched its much-awaited premium hatchback Jazz in India. Honda SIEL has finally taken the wraps off the Honda Jazz hatchback in Delhi. This is a first car after the joint venture between Honda and the Siel group.

Speaking on the occasion, Masahiro Takedagawa, president and CEO, Honda Siel Cars India Ltd, said, "The Honda Jazz is a segment-defining car and is loaded with all the values that are associated with Honda. The Jazz will cater to a unique group of people who want the latest and most stylish models with the best of technology, safety and practicality in their car."

Honda Siel Cars India has built up a reputation for building cars that people want. They began with the City, and moved on to the Accord and then the Civic. They've set their sights on bigger numbers now, which means they’ve got only one way to go: smaller cars. Enter the Jazz, which Honda hopes will play its part in increasing their share in the Indian market.

The spacious hatchback will come with a single engine option for now - the techno-laden 1.2-litre SOHC iVTEC powerplant. The engine is good for a class-leading 90PS of power and 110Nm of torque. Despite this, Honda's techno-wizardry makes this a very frugal powerplant too - we haven't tested it yet, only driven it, but ARAI certifies it to be in the region of 16 kmpl. Utilitarian aspects of the car are key too, and the Jazz offers the advantages of hatchback compactness with near-sedan space.

The Honda Jazz is equipped with a 5-speed manual gearbox. The shift action is light, smooth and very direct thanks to the adoption of carbon-fibre synchronizers. Steering the car through city traffic or speedy corners is a delight too with a perfectly weighted steering wheel that is neither over-servoed nor of the rubbery wishy-washy kinds.
