mehul_bhp 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2008 yes exactly cause verna crdi and fiesta tdci are both over priced cars and fiat can really make a good headstart in this segment if its gets the pricing right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

opendro 0 Report post Posted November 24, 2008 If loaded diesel comes at ~9L' date=' I don't think it is going to be high on VFM quotient![/quote']How much do you think will be the VFM price? And what is your definition of loaded diesel? If you are talking about all the features in www.fiatlinea.com, man! at 9L, I will immediately book on day one without even a test drive. But I don't think that they can give a loaded one even at 10L, which is why they might cut down on the features, for which I'm sad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

csnana 0 Report post Posted November 24, 2008 Guys had first glance of reading the Linea road test in the current ACI issue, this is what they want to say: > Price has not been announced, but ACI guess from valid source says that high end diesel (emotion) could be around 9lacs. > If it sticks to its price it should be smash hit, feels more expensive than it is actually. > Looks stunning, could last several wars, and rides and handles brilliantly > 90bhp is pretty efficient; some plastics could have been better, rear a bit more spacious and bit more performance also. > Tally up the points Linea provides almost everything a buyer in the class wants, with very little missing. Finally a fait hit the sweet spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
