I am fond of the M800 too but I must correct one factual error in your review. The M800 has a kerb weight of 698 kg and an engine horsepower of 37 bhp. This gives it a power-to-weight ratio of 53 bhp/tonne. In comparison, the power-to-weight ratios of Alto and Santro are 62 and 73 respectively. So t read more...

Mileage is about 10 km per liter of diesel in the city and about 12 km per liter on the highways.
Commented on princeanil's review
Excellent review, great mix of fact and personal insights. If you look at the four vehicles purely based on their performance metrics, the power-to-weight ratio measured in bhp/tonne for the Scorpio, Innova, Safari Dicor, and Tavera are 46, 63, 66, and 49 respectively. Which makes the Safari and Inn read more...

I wish you many happy kilometers on your Scorpio. But it is not the absolute power but the power-to-weight ratio that is important in vehicles. The Scorpio has a 115 bhp engine but that has to pull 2500 kg of vehicle weight resulting in a power-to-weight ratio of 46 bhp/tonne. In contrast, the Estee read more...

Oops. Baleno figure corrected. Toyota's India site says Camry has a power of 139 Hp and kerb weight of about 1440 kg. Hence the ratio of 96 Hp/Te.
Yup, the norms apply to new car registrations after Apr '05 and the resale value of any non-BS 3 car goes phut. Not a pleasant prospect! You're right, this ain't the time to buy a diesel.

Good review, lots of personal experience and details. My sympathies re your problems with the car. I had more or the less the same experience with a desi vs videshi brand.

Now that you've used the car for a while, can I request you to update us with your experience after 30,000 km in the Indigo.

Good one. Would like an update after you've done 30,000 km in the Indigo.
Commented on vijayan_venkat's review
Like your approach. I'd love to hear about your experience after 30,000 km in the Indigo.
Great idea to update the experience at different stages. Auto engineers have told me that the Indica and Indigo are okay till about 30,000 km after which they start to deteriorate. Do update us on your experience when you reach that milestone.

I’ve observed it's more effective to email your CV directly to the advertiser than to use the ‘Apply Online’ option. Also, job consultants (as opposed to the actual employer) often get the job specs wrong, but Naukri can’t be blamed for that! But the site is definitely improv read more...
