A Star - disappointing model with excellent engine

First time in the History of INDIAN AUTO industry that Maruti has introduced one new model (which is definetely not going to be hot-cake) with new generation engine, and without any refinement or knowledge about the current expectations of Indian buyers.

This model is going to the second major slip(next to the tin-body Zen estilo) for Maruti.

Maruti losing its hold in the industry by closure of Esteem & Old Zen AND the introduction of not-so-user-friendly and costly vehicles to its worth (like zen estilo, A Star)

Nowadays, Maruti products are more supply-driven and not user-driven concepts (except the grand successful SWIFT).

Maruti needs to rethink of all its future models before release and should think of re-introducing the best selling sedan(Esteem) or Best compact car(Zen) in-line with current scenerio of Industry.
