Rep Power: 25    |  Geneva 2008: Suzuki A-Star     Suzuki is showing its A-Star city car concept at Geneva. The A-Star, to be built in India in partnership with local manufacturer Maruti, made its debut recently at the New Delhi Auto Expo. It's a small five-door hatchback with a new 1.0-litre petrol engine which meets the Euro 5 emissions standards and gives carbon dioxide emissions of less than 109g/km. A diesel engine is also under consideration. Suzuki promises that the A-Star 'will prove that sporty and exciting performance can be enjoyed together with outstanding fuel economy', and from the pictures released so far, it certainly looks the part. The A-Star, which may not continue with the Alto name, is intended for sale in Europe as well as India and production will start in December 2008. Suzuki will invest ¥200bn into its Indian factories by 2009, increase the Maruti Suzuki facility to 960,000 cars a year by 2010 and expand research and development activity in the country.

Car: Drunken Pedestrian Rep Power: 12 | Small cars are cool, practical and that's why I like them. Only problem is that they all look like big potatoes on wheels. Why? Man's been to space... c'mon... |

Car: BMW635 '86,850CI '96|CBR 600,MotoGuzzi California Rep Power: 17 | Those rear exhausts are a joke on that 1l I4. Or maybe the engine is a joke for the car, as it's designed far too agressively for it. I mean those fender flares are larger than on an RX-8. |
