Renault XBA to Throw Down Selling of Maruti's Budget Friendly Cars

If we spill the beans about the low cost car makers, then the name of Maruti Suzuki comes to our mind at first as it always aims to introduce its products with keeping the common man's budget in mind. Now, Renault is all set to drop the likes of various Maruti Suzuki's products via its upcoming new hatchback. Codenamed as the XBA, this model seems to obstruct the selling of the Alto k10, Ritz and WagonR Stingray. It will be based on the same Common Module Family (CMF) platform that will also underpin another upcoming pocket friendly Dastun hatchback.

If reports are to be believed, then the Renault XBA will be available in four distinct versions and will only get power from a gasoline mill. It will be powered by a 0.8 litre three cylinder petrol engine, which is likely to be paired to a manual transmission as well as an optional automatic gearbox. Reportedly, Renault is not making any plan to launch an oil burner variant of this runabout. Probably to be priced around INR 4 Lac, complete details about the vehicle will be revealed on May 20.

The XBA is about to undergo production at Renault-Nissan Oragadam plant in Chennai and rumors say that it will come out with the pretty body design and terrific interior features.
