While some stick to the 'nip-n-tuck' routine, a few car makers will launch new products that may just change buyers' perspective of a low cost car for good. Here is what will come your way in 2013 under Rs 5 lakh
Fiat Punto Evo
Expected: Mid 2013, Price: Rs. 4.5 - 7.5 lakh
After taking back the reins from Tata for its sales and distribution network in India, Fiat clearly has its task cut out. However, it is also refreshing it model line-up to boost in India. Its most affordable car, the Grande Punto has been around for a while now and Fiat plans to give it a mid-life face-lift. In all probability, sold abroad as the Punto Evo, is what will be launched here. The Punto Evo features distinctive interior and exterior styling changes and should pack in more equipment as well. It will have a new front bumper, grille, refreshed styling, new wheels, tail lights and interiors and is likely to be lighter and more fuel efficient.
The 1.2-litre and 1.4 FIRE petrol engine as well as the 1.3-litre MultiJet will continue to do duty but we would have loved to see the 1.4-litre MultiAir petrol engine under its hood. Also, only the base variant will of the Punto Evo will be available under Rs 5 lakh. Along with a refreshed Punto Evo and an updated Linea, Fiat needs to ensure effective after sales service before the cars are launched to exploit their full market potential.

What happened to the Tata nano that was going to be available for 1 Lac ?????

Nano was released years after the promise of 1 lakh. Tata did keep their promise in a sort of way, by pricing it at 1 lakh ex-factory. so at the retail counter, the final prices includes trasnport, taxes, etc and hence it was more than 1 lakh.

Anil.. The Nano was promised for 1 Lac years ago... the cost of manufacturing went up since then, but still Mr. Ratan launched the first car for 1 lac.. and subsequent models for 1.25 Lacs. He ofcourse may have had to strip the car of some features like power steering at that time, which he is trying to give now.. but none the less, he has given hope to millions of affording a car at the EMI of a bike
