Thank you charles for once again providing a superb review.

But it's not a Superb! It's a Laura! :P

Please direct most of your appreciation Rachit's way: he's the one does most of the slaving away at MS Word now!

Given ideal conditions and equal coefficients of drag, the two cars will give identical top speeds.

In reality, however, there are a million small things that change that - weight, gearing, road conditions, weather conditions, tyre compounds, condition of the tyres, clutch, engine, quality of fuel... You get the drift, right?

Just wondering why carwale test for Dzire has not been done yet. Innocent  

Would love to see a detailed report on the car.

Although it doesn't pertain to this thread, I'm going to answer that (my apologies in advance, moderators!) We've asked Suzuki repeatedly for their cars, but they're based out of Delhi while we're in Mumbai, so it becomes a logistical issue.
