QUESTION: I am keen to buy a hatchback priced between Rs 12-15 lakh, something as big as the Swift. I drive around 40km daily in conjested areas and would like a Merc A-class or an Audi A2.
When will these cars come to India as I do not want to pay customs duty on imports?
AAA: We are afraid that it’s not easy to get a hatchback in this price range because no manufacturer sells expensive hatchbacks in India.
The other problem is that you can’t import them easily — since these cars cost less than US$ 40,000, they would have to go through the homologation process.
There are no plans for the Audi A2 in India and Mercedes, which was evaluating the B-class (picture), has now dropped plans.
