Indian metros have been plagued with traffic problems. Rush hour commutes regularly lead to bumper-to-bumper traffic situations. In such conditions, changing gears and using the clutch has been increasingly becoming a tiring experience for some motorists. No surprise then that the demand for automatic cars in India has been on a steady rise. What has further fuelled the demand is the fact that modern day automatics are no longer as unresponsive or fuel sapping as earlier. Here, we listed down five three box automatic cars in India under 12 lakhs of selling price (Ex-showroom). Check it out and share your views on it by commenting below.
Automatic Cars in India under 12 lakhs of price-
The Honda City recently got a complete model replacement and the India launch happened in January this year. Honda launched the City with petrol and diesel engine with automatic transmission available only for the petrol. The Honda City AT comes with the 1.5 liter petrol engine which outputs 119 PS of power mated to the 5 speed AT box. Worth mentioning is the fact that the City is only automatic car in its class to feature paddle shifters. Good looks, long features list and well sorted out mechanicals, the Honda City AT has a lot going for it.
The 2014 Hyundai Verna recently received a variant rejig along with some feature additions. The Verna is the only car to come with a diesel engine mated to an automatic transmission, which helps us win a lot of brownie points from us. The car is powered by a 1.6 liter CRDi engine mated to a 4 speed auto box. This diesel motor churns out 128 Ps of max power. The petrol Verna AT too is a well sorted out car and comes with a 1.6 liter VTVT motor mated to a 4 speed AT. The petrol motor makes 123 PS of max power.
What about the new Ford fiesta with a dual clutch maintenance free auto box equipped petrol model with awesome handling and high speed stability?
Thank you for the kind words !
Yes, but a facelift is launching in around two months. So we gave it a miss.
