Renault Captur

After repeated delays, the Renault will finally launch the Captur on November 6, 2017. The premium compact SUV is based on the same B0 platform of the Duster and shares the same set of engines – a 1.5-litre petrol and diesel (110PS version) units. For now, the Renault Captur will not be available with an automatic transmission. Nonetheless, Renault will offer a top-of-the-line variant called the Captur Platine, which will be exclusive to India.

  • Expected price – Rs 76 lakh

Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 4MATIC

Adding a dose of performance, Mercedes-Benz will be launching the CLA 45 AMG on November 7, 2017. It’s more of a mid-cycle refresh rather than a complete facelift. To satisfy your visual buds, it will feature a glossy black paint with yellow highlights on the front and rear bumpers, side skirts, ORVMs and outer-rim of the 19-inch blacked-out alloy wheels. Powered by a 2.0-litre, turbocharged petrol engine, it develops 381PS of power and a torque of 475Nm. Mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox, the sedan sprints from 0-100kmph in a mere 4.2 seconds.

Both the CLA 45 AMG and the GLA 45 AMG will be launched simultaneously on November 7. On the outside, it too gets the yellow highlights and glossy black paint scheme as the sportier CLA 45 AMG. The roof-mounted spoiler gets a dual yellow-black finish as well. Under the bonnet, it shares the same 2.0-litre, turbocharged engine and transmission options with the CLA 45 AMG. On the performance front, it takes a second more – 4.3 seconds - to complete the naught to 100kmph acceleration.

Ford EcoSport Facelift

  • Expected price – Rs 7.30 lakh – Rs 11.50 lakh

Ford EcoSport facelift

The next key launch this month is of the Ford EcoSport facelift that is likely to take place on November 9, 2017. The compact SUV gets a more recognisable face with projector headlamps that incorporate LED DRLs and chunkier fog lamps. Its cabin too feels premium and gets an 8-inch floating touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity options. It continues to feature the same 1.5-litre diesel engine from the present model. However, there’s a new 1.5-litre Dragon series petrol motor on offer which generates 123PS of max power and a peak torque of 150Nm.

As the updated Celerio was launched in October, Maruti Suzuki is expected to launch the rugged version of the hatchback next month. It gets black plastic cladding all around the exterior, which bestows it a tough and robust character to the Celerio. Beefing up the hatchback are the blacked-out exterior door handles, outside rearview mirrors and alloy wheels. Its engine and features are expected to remain the same as that of the standard Celerio. It will be offered in four variants - VXi, VXi (O), ZXi, and ZXi (O) with a single petrol engine. An AMT option would also be on offer.
