2008 Best Small Car

2008 Best Small CarVauxhall Corsa 1.4 Club is one of the most keenly received small car of 2008. The best small car continues to hold itself in the super-mini category. When it comes to space and comfort, dear reader, don’t go by the super-mini car tag attached to the car ‘coz Vauxhall Corsa 1.4 Club is quiet comfortable for four people to sit and enjoy the ride, which is nothing less than that of a big car! Vauxhall Corsa has enticed the critics in the auto industry for couple of months.

The small family car has enough boot space. The removable floor gives extra room for your legs. The design of Vauxhall Corsa is really solid without being clunky. It is smart without being showy. The designers of this small wonder have put their best efforts into its construction. By placing controls around the steering column of the car, the designers have given a nice touch of ease and room of adjustment in the driver’s seating position. Great fuel economy is only added to the car’s exceptional quality.

When you take a looked at Vauxhall Corsa, you will feel like looking at the original 50 year old styled automobile.  It has the classic Italian styling of the early Fiat 500. No wonder why, the company is proud to make use of its heritage in this model because this is welcomed whole-heartedly by its consumers.

The wheel placement of the car makes it easier to handle. You will also find it reasonable to have a top speed of 100 mph and 0-60 in just 13 seconds though it is at the lower end of the market. But, you should not ignore the real strength of the car that is, undoubtedly, its fuel consumption.

2008 Tata Nano- world’s cheapest car

2008 Tata Nano- world’s cheapest carThe whole world has been looking for the cheapest car. Tata Motors, India, fulfilled the world and most importantly, India’s need for the People’s Car by unveiling Tata Nano three months ago. This is perhaps a remarkable development which signifies a first for the global automobile industry. The People’s Car brings comfort and safety within the reach of thousands of families at a very cheap price. Yes, Tata Nano costs you just £1277! Now that’s like the real economical car! Let us take a look at the features of this ‘wonder’ car.

Mr. Ratan Tata, Chairman of the Tata Group and Tata Motors said, “We indeed have a People’s Car, which is affordable and yet built to meet safety requirements and emission norms, to be fuel efficient and low on emissions. We are happy to present the People’s Car to India and we hope it brings the joy, pride and utility of owning a car to many families who need personal mobility.”

Tata Nano has a roomy passenger compartment with generous leg and head room. Four people can sit comfortably in the car. Four doors with high seating position make ingress and egress easy.

Tata Nano is a small wonder! With 3.1 meters long, 1.5 meters wide and as high as just 1.6 metres, Tata Nano can effortlessly move on roads in cities as well as in rural areas. This car has been specially designed keeping in mind the “crests and troughs” in the busy Indian roads.

This is the first time that a two-cylinder gasoline engine is being used in a car with single balancer shaft. The lean design strategy has helped minimize weight, which helps maximize performance per unit of energy consumed and delivers high fuel efficiency. Performance is controlled by a specially designed electronic engine management system.

Its mono-volume design, with wheels at the corners and the power -train at the rear, enables it to uniquely combine both space and maneuverability, which will set a new benchmark among small cars.

The car will be available in both standard and deluxe versions. Both versions will offer a wide range of body colors, and other accessories so that the car can be customized to an individual’s preferences.

Tata could bring the Nano to the UK - but only after it has become established in India.

Vauxhall Agila by Suzuki

VauxhallOne of the first things that strike me when I sit inside this small car Vauxhall Agila is the legroom space it has. The Agila has been designed for city life so it performs best in the city. Being a small car, it makes driving around the city quite easy and the best part is that it does not require much parking space. With airy interiors, and a 1.0-litre – with its 65bhp power output, this car is like a dream for people who need to move fast. This 75bhp CDTi gives excellent mileage, which sums up to around 15000+ miles per year.

This car is driven by performance and economy and it can be your perfect family car, if you have a family of three or four, this car has fold flat seats that give you the sense of a small van. Suzuki has always been reliable and so is this new car, which provides excellent reliability.

It is a very versatile car, which can travel in basically all sorts of weather. For its versatility and performance the price range of £7,595 - £11,195 seems to be pretty good and affordable. So, if a small car attracts you, this will be a good buy.
