> Hall Number:1

> You’ll Love: Situated in a quite prominent location

> You’ll Loathe: Probably some of the designs itself :biggrin:

> Show Stopper: Kareena Kapoor! On a serious note, TIA Concept Car

> Also Don't Miss: Avanti sports car, Eleron SUV


Dilip Chhabria invited Kareena Kapoor to unveil his new cars: TIA and Eleron.

We managed to get fortunate enough to gain special access inside for some close up shots than any other media. :smile:

DC played a short video to divert media’s attention while Kareena quietly stepped outside.

Lucky and Awesome coverage.

Tia though looks like our dashing car, it has a great appeal and cute at the same time.
Eleron is a real brute and looks leagues ahead in today's technology, nice design.
Well Avanti has some lamborghini's genes i felt, but goes well.

Any information on the technical specifications on these newly unvield cars? Especially Avanti (Since it's tagged as First Indian sport car)

Not to mention Kareena too looks good!

I would like to thank DC for bringing out such horrible designs. Atleast now its proven that they are best "wierd and whacky" modders in India. Avanti looks inspired heavily from Audi, Tia lia shia.. whatever, it looks like a kid's car which has grown-up.

If you were to count the number of heads turned by his 'creations' the numbers could be huge but the same thing would apply if an alien walked on the road too. I am amazed that people could have such poor taste to actually buy them.

I always wonder who buys DC cars (except use in movies)?

Even if some one buys and drives it how about service and spares ?

tia is having a great spec. check the steering wheel and the hazard switch. it looks like nano.
it costs 18L


1.2-liter turbocharged petrol engine that boasts of 120 hp and a maximum torque of 190 Nm. The mid-engined rear-wheel drive Tia is operated via a four-speed automatic gearbox.

If there are people who are ready to accept one of the worst looking car (Alto 800; just my personal opinion) then why shouldn't people buy this cute little one? Agree on the second line, service and spares are a problem, it doesn't matter much if used only in cities. Skodas still run in our roads. [clap]

Thank you for the information Shibu, the price is definitely not according to Indians preferences, but might be of interest globally.
