Grupul Renault pregăteşte lansarea unui model mai ieftin decât Loganul. Maşina de 3.000 de dolari va fi produsă în colaborare cu indienii de la Bajaj Auto, dar nu va fi importată în Europa.

După maşina de 5.000 de euro, care costă de fapt peste 6.000 şi este produsă sub marca Dacia, inginerii şi designerii francezi au primit ca sarcină de la şeful alianţei Renault-Nissan, Carlos Ghosn, dezvoltarea unui model care să coste 3.000 de dolari. Acest vehicul „super-low-cost“, numit deja de presa internaţională „fiul lui Logan“, va fi destinat însă numai pieţei indiene şi statelor vecine, unde normele de siguranţă sunt mult mai relaxate. De altfel, Ghosn a declarat luna trecută că „cel mai probabil, dacă vom construi acest tip de maşină, vom alege India, pentru că furnizorii şi uzinele costă puţin, iar piaţa de acolo este favorabilă unor produse ieftine“. Conform directorului comercial Dacia, Jacques Daniel, noul vehicul ar putea fi elaborat de compania românească, aceasta putând participa şi la producerea lui. „Autoturismul poate fi dezvoltat atât de Renault, cât şi de Dacia, însă cred că trebuie folosit know-how-ul Dacia pentru autoturismele economice“, a spus oficialul francez. Cu toate acestea, este greu de crezut că firma românească va avea mai mult decât un rol de consultant în proiectare, dat fiind faptul că Renault are în plan deschiderea unui centru de inginerie asemănător celui din România, în Asia, şi că maşina va fi mult diferită de Logan.

mda, se pare ca indienii nu-s chiar atat pe prosti precum credea francezu'

Spied – Bajaj RE60 shows its face again
The Bajaj RE60, arguably the first quadricyle of India is continuing on what appears to be the final phase of testing.

The test mule of the RE60 was spotted by the guys at the Facebook page named Cousins on Cars. The quadricycle looks diminutive when compared to the Maruti Alto which is also in the frame, suggesting that the vehicle could be handy in the bumper to bumper city traffic.

Bajaj has developed the RE60 completely in-house without any inputs from Renault-Nissan who are reportedly interested in the car to play the entry-level Datsun. However, the information regarding Renault-Nissan’s partnership with Bajaj remains sketchy and unpredictable.

According to Bajaj, the RE60 was not aimed at the Tata Nano but was conceived as an upgrade for the three wheeled auto rickshaws, million of which have been sold since their inception throughout the world. The quadricyle, hence sits between a rickshaw and a full fledged car making it strictly an urban runabout. A private version, as suggested by this spyshot, is also in the making.

The RE60 gets its motive power form a 20hp 200cc DTS-i engine which is mounted at the rear. RE stands for Rear Engined and 60 represents the amount of CO2 emitted (in grams) per kilometer. The vehicle can reach a top speed of 70 kmph.

The Bajaj RE60′s price depends on whether the government of India decides to implement the quadricycle policy.
