#SUZUKI CAPPUCCINO VS MIATA MANUAL#

New Maruti Suzuki Sports Car could use the name Cappuccino like the mid 90's Cappuccino shown here That said, the sports car will also get a rear wheel drive setup and not a front wheel drive one like on the hatchbacks which will make it ideal for the first time sports car buyer that Maruti Suzuki is targeting.

The torque rating in the car is said to be around 280 Nm and the sports car will get a 6-speed manual gearbox and not a AMT or automatic gearbox. Expected engine power is said to be in the 190 bhp range with the help of a larger twin scroll turbocharger that helps eliminate turbo lag. The Suzuki sports car will have a front mounted 1.0-litre Boosterjet engine like the one the Baleno RS gets. Just like the Baleno, S-Cross, Ignis and now the Ciaz, the new sports car will also be available only through the Nexa line of dealerships but will be serviceable in all Maruti Suzuki service centres.Īccording to sources in Suzuki Japan, the new sports car will be based on an evolution of the platform that underpins the new Swift as that platform has already been designed for an all-wheel-drive setup for a few markets in Northern Europe. Expect prices to be around the Rs 18 lakh for the standard car and about Rs 20 lakh (ex-showroom) for the higher variant with options. In India, the car will go straight up against the likes of the Tamo Racemo but will be priced cheaper. In the international market, the Suzuki sports car will go up against the likes of the Mazda Miata (which won the 2016 World Car of the Year Award) and the mid engined turbocharged Honda S660 along with the likes of the Fiat 124 Spyder.
