As we prepare to welcome the second month of the year, car manufacturers in the country are gearing up to launch a fresh set of cars for the Indian buyers. The vehicle option ranges from the compact SUV to the premium sedan. Four cars are listed below that are expected to go on sale next month. XUV300 from Mahindra On February 14, Mahindra, a well-known manufacturer of utility vehicles, intends to introduce the subcompact SUV XUV300 in India.
There will be diesel and gasoline engine options for the vehicle. Along with a robust design and sturdy construction, the vehicle features styling elements inspired by cheetahs. Along with all the premium convenience features like a large touchscreen infotainment system, push start-stop button and more, the compact SUV will also get segment-first features like seven airbags and a dual-zone climate control unit. The vehicle will be available with a gasoline engine of 1.2 liters and a diesel engine of 1.5 liters. Civic from Honda The new Civic has been designed to fit the new Honda design language and is built on a completely new platform. It has a very different design from the cars of the previous generation, giving it the appearance of a baby Accord. The LED DRLs and the distinctive thick chrome slat in the front give the car an extremely futuristic appearance. The new model has lines that look like notchbacks, a high boot lid, and a roof that slopes down. The tail design is striking with the boomerang-shaped tail lamps, twin exhausts and multiple creases. Additionally, the 17-inch alloys are eye-catching. The tenth-generation Civic gets a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine and naturally aspirated 1.8-litre and 2.0-litre engines. The premium sedan from Honda is likely to be launched next month.
Trail Hawk compass for a Jeep In India next month, Jeep is likely to introduce a Trail Hawk model with the highest possible specs that is capable of going off-road. The Compass Trail Hawk will only be offered in the diesel AT setup with cosmetic changes both on the inside and outside to match the pedigree of the vehicle. Back in March 2018, the vehicle was showcased with a contrasting coloured roof and Trail Hawk specific wheels that have also been painted in black. As part of the package, the Compass Trail Hawk will feature a 2.0-liter diesel engine with 171 bhp/350 nm, a nine-speed AT, all-wheel drive, and a low-range gearbox. L Audi A8 The A8 L, Audi’s flagship sedan, is likely to go on sale in February 2019. The Audi A8 is defining stylistically and heralds the beginning of a new design era for the brand as a whole. The fluid, muscular body and wide, upright single-frame grille on the front of the car signify sporty elegance, sophistication, and advanced status. The laser lighting for the headlights using Audi’s Matrix LED technology is standard. The saloon is also muscular thanks to its strong shoulder line, lightly flared wheel arches, and stately boot. The new Audi’s exterior is completed by the boot-mounted LED tail lamp strip. A reworked 3.0-liter V6 engine in both gasoline and diesel is expected to power the entry-level trim, while a 4.0-liter V8 engine is likely to power the higher trims. All five engines will be equipped with an integrated 48V electrical center with a mild hybrid, allowing for longer coasting and improved fuel economy in the top-spec A8 L.
