Datsun Redigo Facelift

Datson came down to India as an affordable everybody’s car with its launches every now
and then. Redigo has been Datson’s entry level hatchback focusing on people willing
purchase their first 4 wheelers and achieving a dream of owning a car.

A few days back, leaked images for a revamped Redigo surfaced on the web and they look
quite impressive. To begin with the updated Redigo comes with a major change in the
styling of the front grill. With the new set of headlamps, the car resembles a lot like the
Nissan Kicks and gives it a good glance to view from the front.

Below are a few key features that stands out in the new Redigo:

1. New L- Shaped DRL’s make the car look sporty from the front
2. Segment first LED Fog lights which enhances the visibility for the Indian roads
3. A new two tone wheel cover looks similar to the diamond cut alloys and give it a
refreshed look
4. New silver and grey inserts make the cabin looks a lot upmarket
5. The 8 inch infotainment system with apple car play and android auto with an added
advantage of voice commands make this the biggest change in the interiors

Other additions also include a reversing camera and most importantly a passenger airbag
which makes the car safer for the Indian roads.

The Redigo is expected to launched with the new BS6 versions of 0.8 and 1.0 Litre petrol
engines sustaining the 5 speed manual transmission and is surely to compete with the
Maruti’s number one selling Alto and Renaults Kwid. We are expecting the pricing of the
updated model within that range to give a tough competition in the market.

Polo GT TSI 2020: What’s New

The Volkswagen Polo GT has been around for quite some time now and has always ensured
that people know how it feels to drive a sports hatch within a budget. The car has packed
with all the bells and whistles making sure to stand apart from the crowd.

In this new era of BS6, when car manufacturers are revamping their models, Volkswagen is
also not that far. The company is about to launch the Polo GT 2020 with a few changes
which will make you go for it again.

Below are a few noticeable changes for the upcoming car:

1. Gets a 1.0 Litre turbo petrol engine mated to a 6 speed manual transmission this
time instead of the 7 speed DSG
2. Power figures have gone up to 113 Bhp from 103 previously with torque figures
touching 175 Nm
 3. New honeycomb chrome grill makes the car appealing from the front
4. Addition to the infotainment system is the new 6.5 inch touchscreen with Apple car
play and Android auto
5. The car still gets the same 16 inch alloys with disk brakes at the front and drum
breaks at the rear

Honestly, most of us might not like to downshift of the DSG to the 6 speed manual
transmission but a few might like the change. This is primarily because the way DSG handled
with its gear shifts. The BS6 variant though produces more power with the same torque
figure, it can be too much to ask for consumers to not get a diesel variant of the car.
