Somnath Long-termer	The midsize segment is bursting with new entrants , the LINEA would be another addition . Its the saloon version of the GRANDE PUNTO , its corolla sized & stunning looking . Expect a 7-8 lakh price tag & hugely refined engines. Service won't be a problem with TATA around , when launched it will shake things up in the 7-8 lakh segment. - somnath chatterjee

Pankaj Prasad City: Bhavnagar	Yes, Linea is likely to be launched ahead of Grande Punto, with compromise on goodies in both these cars as compared to the foreign version - it's always like that with all cars when launched in India.

Dear Vikki

Fiat is planning to launch the Linea as early as May or June next year and has laid to rest all the speculations that surrounded the launch of Grande Punto preceding Linea. VW has already launched the Passat in India, but it is over 20 lakh. I think you were asking about the Jetta which will be fighting against the likes of SX4, City etc. VW is evaluating all its options and might showcase the car at the upcoming Auto Expo in Jan. The launch may happen in the first quarter of '08.
