New Delhi:
India's biggest auto show, the Delhi Auto Expo, begins on Tuesday. Giant car-makers including Mercedes will unveil new models on Monday.
First up - Renault's electric car, the two-seater that can run a 100 kilometres when fully-charged. The price has not yet been fixed. The car is being made in India for the world market and was launched at Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit's residence.
At the Auto Expo this year, the buzz is all about small and compact cars - that's the fastest-growing segment that accounts for three-fourths of the market.
Das Auto, the German major Volkswagen, will unveil its Polo hatchback which won the European Car of the Year award. Heralding its entry in the small car segment in India, it is expected to hit Indian showrooms by March.
The other big player, Nissan-Renault, will flaunt its small wonder Micra at the exhibition. General Motors India will launch the Beat, which is smaller than Chevrolet's Spark and is expected to be priced lower too.
