India Bound: Toyota Yaris

The Toyota Yaris is heading to the Indian subcontinent by Q1 2009. The hatch when launched, will take the battle straight to the Skoda Fabia and Suzuki Swift's throat with diesel and petrol variants ranging across a broad market segment. Are they laying a battleground for the Honda Jazz to enter?

2009 Chevrolet Cruze

As of all you might have already read in various magazines, the Cruze, which will replace the Optra/Lacetti in the global market is all set to launch in India too.
