Posted: 02 Jul 2010 10:10 AM PDT

Chevrolet has registered a whooping growth of 112% in past one year as per the data compared in June 2010 with respect to previous year. The total sales have increased from 4492 to 9539 over this period.

A huge credit of this growth goes to the new small car Chevrolet Beat followed by Chevrolet Spark. The June 2010 sales comprised 3,415 units of Chevrolet Beat, 2,911 units of the Chevrolet Spark, 773 units of the Chevrolet Cruze, 1,423 units of the Chevrolet Tavera, 398 Units of Chevrolet Aveo, 387 units of Chevrolet Aveo U-VA, 139 units of the Chevrolet Captiva and 93 units of Chevrolet Optra.

Commenting on the performance, Mr. P. Balendran, Vice President, GM India said,

“We are excited by the continued overwhelming response to Chevrolet Beat, Cruze and Spark. Introduction of best-in-segment cars from the 300 series, increase in customer outreach through distribution network, our unique value proposition like Chevrolet Cashless Ownership offer and our promise to deliver quality and performance are the factors that have led to the impressive sales."

This growth percentage number has made Chevrolet the fastest growing automobile brand in India.

New Facelifted 2011 Honda Accord To Be Launched In India Soon

Posted: 01 Jul 2010 10:00 PM PDT

Honda as we all know is one brand which every Indian customer looks up to when he/she considers buying a luxurious sedan or a high end SUV and has gathered a lot of appreciation with highly acclaimed products like the Honda City, Honda Accord and the Honda CR-V.

Its been a while since the brand launched these cars in the Indian market and fortunately brought the face lifted models of the City and the CR-V pretty soon and also launched a completely new 7th generation Accord. But after the new accord in 2008 a long time has passed since the brand made any changes to it, and now after 3 years the all new facelifted 2011 Honda Accord is all set to hit the market.

Erik Berkman, vice president of Corporate Planning and Logistics for American Honda Motor Co. said,”For 2011, the Honda Accord evolves again with sharpened styling inside and out, fuel economy gains and a broader application of popular features. The Honda Accord is designed to deliver a consistently rewarding ownership experience in the areas that matter most to sedan and coupe drivers.”

The EPA fuel economy of the vehicles has been drastically increased by 2 MPG in the city and 3 MPG ion the highway owing to the changes made to vehicle aerodynamics, engine friction and transmission gear ratios.

The new redesigned alloys give a better appearance and its radius will now fall between 16" – 17" inches. The car looks bolder now and makes its presence more renowned in the crowd and the credit solely goes to the upscale design with new 3 step front grille, front bumper and rear deck lid and features minor changes on the interior as well.

The car will go on sale in the US by 2010 August and we hope that Honda brings it to India soon.
