RR has sharper lines while the Mulsanne is all curvy. Versa might not make it to India I think considering the fact that the Micra hits Rs 7 lakhs for the top end diesel!

Well I recently drove the Versa known as TIIDA. It come with a 1.8 liter petrol engine giving 120hp. Its not bad has a tall ride height and handles well. If in comes to India I think it will be going head to head with SX4. Oh and it also comes in a sedan.

Seems this new breed Nissan Versa is a replica of Nissan Tiida Hatch. The current 2011 version of Tiida 1.8L, 4CYL, 127BHP, 4A hatch & saloon on sale down here in Qatar is for QR.51000/-(INR.6.2la). Donno for what reason Nissan is not introducing Tiida in a big market like ours.

2013 CHEVROLET MALIBU

The next-generation Malibu will get both four-cylinder and six-cylinder power plants with a choice of manual or automatic transmissions. Chevrolet also says a turbocharged engine will be available in some markets. The North American-spec four-cylinder will be a 2.5 liter direct-injection unit with around 190 bhp (142 kW / 193 PS) and 180 lb-ft (244 Nm) of torque mated to a Hydra-Matic 6T40 six-speed automatic. The new Malibu will have a shorter wheelbase than its predecessor by 114 mm (4.5 inches). But with a wider track, 1,574 mm (62 inches), front and rear, the new model will offer increased cabin space (113 liters more) than before.

VOLVO CONCEPT UNIVERSE
Volvo has officially unveiled the Universe concept at the Shanghai Auto Show.
Built to preview the company's flagship sedan, the Universe has a restrained design that is undeniably elegant. While Volvo is staying mum on details, the car features LED headlights, "suicide" rear doors and a sloping roofline that gives the concept a dynamic stance. Inside, passengers are treated to a luxurious cabin that boasts leather upholstery, wood trim, a floating center console and individual seating for four. According to Peter Horbury, Vice President of Design at Volvo, "The Concept Universe is exceptionally refined, yet with all the simplistic assets that make Volvo champions of the uncomplicated. There is a growing appreciation for this ingenious blend of design and technology among modern luxury car buyers. This trend paves the way for our success. We are convinced that our special brand of luxury has a great future."

AUDI A3 E-TRION

This A3 e-tron is not an all-electric model. Instead, it is a plug-in hybrid and is based on the A3 sedan concept that was recently introduced at the Geneva auto show. The plug-in hybrid drivetrain of this A3 e-tron features a 155 kW (211 PS / 207 bhp) 1.4 liter TFSI four-cylinder engine coupled to an electric motor with an output of 20 kW (27 PS / 27 bhp) - total power quotient for the vehicle is 175 kW (238 PS / 234 bhp). Transmission is the seven-speed S tronic. That makes this A3 e-tron far quicker on the 0 to 100 km/h sprint than the previous all-electric variant. This A3 e-tron sedan 'notchback' (four-seater) accomplishes the feat in 6.8 seconds and has a top speed of 231 km/h (144 mph). On electric power alone, the A3 e-tron plug-in hybrid has a range of up to 54 km (34 miles) with the 12 kWh lithium-ion batteries located behind the rear seats providing the juice. This plug-in hyrid A3 e-tron actually looks quite production-ready and features a chassis derived from the current RS 3 Sportback along with a performance suspension and 20-inch light alloy wheels.
