New Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara 2.4 now in India

Maruti is shoring up the value proposition and performance of some its models in a bid to reposition the offerings. The Grand Vitara has not really taken off in India and one of the reasons could also have been its relatively underwhelming performance.
Suzuki has now launched a new version - the Grand Vitara 2.4, which comes reloaded with a 2.4-litre VVT (Variable Valve Timing) engine that delivers a maximum power of 163.5 bhp @ 6000 rpm and a peak torque of 225 NM @ 4000 rpm. Maruti officials say that the VVT engine on the new Grand Vitara 2.4 delivers a balanced mix of power and efficiency.
The Suzuki Grand Vitara SUV range has always been popular for its style and handling as well as its off-road capabilities. Now, the new Grand Vitara 2.4 should deliver and meet the customer's need for more power.
In the Grand Vitara 2.4, an All-time, 4-mode, 4-Wheel Drive (4WD) continues to ensure effective control across terrains. Disc brakes in the rear wheels ensure superior braking and provide an additional safety feature to the Grand Vitara 2.4.
The new version is packed with many new features that add style and a bold look. The interior display in the car has been enhanced with a new Multi Information Display (MID) providing easy to read and accurate vehicle information like cruising range, average speed and instantaneous fuel consumption, besides a 'low-fuel' warning. All these add up to enhanced user convenience and driving comfort.
The stylish new front grille and bumper gives the Grand Vitara a sleeker look while the 17-inch alloy wheels, better fill out the arches and add to the visual appeal at the side. The new Grand Vitara 2.4 is priced at Rs 16.7 lakh for the manual and Rs 18 lakh for the automatic transmission (ex-showroom, Delhi).

Stills, Specifications, Features and Reviews of Mahindra Xylo




The first thing you notice about the Mahindra Xylo is its masculinity. Its poise. And its attitude. You wonder if the aggressive front grill (with chrome slats) is responsible for this. For sure, the sleek, sloping bonnet adds to its imposing stance. And alloy wheels further enhance this car's allure. The sporty dials, the trims and the plush seating add to its style. All in all, this car surely puts sedans out of fashion.
Xylo is all set to change the perception that sedans have long been considered the ultimate in high-end mobility. It offers class-defining lavish space all around such that even a six-foot tall person can stretch in comfort in the third row seat. Xylo has been designed for all markets globally except the U.S.

Mitsubishi Outlander
Overview
Mitsubishi Outlander is the ultimate sports utility vehicle available in its prescribed segment. This awesome performer is absolute worth of money put on it. Outlander user would feel the punch of driving it. This SUV was originally available as Mitsubishi Air trek. This variant class was first launched in Japan in the year 2001. The name Air Trek was coined to express the idea of adventure-filled travelling pleasure. It has the normal 5-speed manual transmission gear box. Then this lead to the face lift of Air trek in to much improved and improvised successor Outlander. The new name plate Outlander meant to give more joy for the user when travelling to distant destinations with a pinch of adventure.
Design
From the outside, the Outlander is a very good-looking SUV, with sporty lines and nicely molded lighting. The front has a prominent skid plate coming up from underneath, indicating a good approach angle for off-roading. The bumper bisects the grille's honeycombed top and bottom to give it a strong performance look. The prominent wheel arches are pretty common these days, but the clearance inside the wheel wells suggest the Outlander is ready for bigger wheels.
Interiors
The view forward is dominated by the heavily raked windshield and the resulting ultra-deep instrument panel.The seats provide a marginal level of comfort and support. The side bolsters are soft, and thus cave when called upon to perform. There's enough room for adults in the reclinable second row even when it's fully forward. Slide it back a few inches, and there's plenty of legroom. But this is fairly typical of the class these days. Unfortunately, the seat is flat, hard, and generally not comfortable to sit on.
The seat's padding is extremely thin, so that it takes up as little space as possible when stowed in the floor. Putting the seat up and down is very complicated. The instructions are unclear, and it took the salesman a few minutes and multiple attempts to erect it. The cargo area is a plus. It is access through a liftgate-tailgate combination. The tailgate is essentially the rar bumper--making me wonder about damage in a minor rear-ender.
Engine
The 2.0-litre diesel engine available in the Outlander from launch is a 140bhp engine also used in the Mitsubishi Grandis people carrier, and supplied by Volkswagen. It is also used in various Volkswagen, Audi, SEAT and Skoda models. For the most part it performs very well, with maximum torque of 229lb-ft arriving at just 1750rpm.
However, there are a few scenarios that seem to catch it out, such as a sudden long incline during a steady motorway cruise hindering its ability to maintain speed, and resulting in having to change down to fifth gear. Otherwise the engine is responsive and pulls keenly from low revs. The second-generation Outlander is the best car Mitsubishi has produced in years.
Not only does it match the latest class leaders in many areas, it also offers several unique features. Unlike the original Outlander (which came only with a petrol engine and four-speed automatic transmission), the new model comes with a modern diesel engine and six-speed manual gearbox. It is roomier, has a better quality interior, is better to drive and is more practical than before, with some models getting third row seats and all benefiting from a split tailgate improving access to the luggage compartment.
