  • 9 years ago
‘Automatics’, was the word to go by in 2014 and it is bound to be continued in 2015 and further on. Apparently, several cars had contributed to make such a mark during the year. But listed down are some of the best examples which gains sovereignty over the rest. See to discover them more.

Volkswagen Vento Diesel DSG
With the Vento diesel dipped in DSG, Volkswagen tried to go off the track and bring a new era to the masses of diesel buyers. As Vento with the 7-speed DSG gearbox is promising on the drivers end, the facelift given to car also makes more vows on the cosmetic appeal.

Skoda Rapid Diesel DSG
Appropriately, it isn’t a bit of surprise that VW and Skoda shares the same drivetrain, because of the same parent company. Under hoods, it too holds that 1.5-litre diesel engine mated to the 7-speed DSG gearbox with no change on the cosmetic side over the outgoing Rapid.

Tata Zest Diesel AMT
Apart from the international carmakers, there is an Indian too in the list – Tata Motors – standing tall with its Zest diesel AMT. This model of Tata can be touted as the cheapest automatic sedan made available to this country. For its technical guise is the 5-speed AMT gearbox of Alto K10 and Celerio, but being mated to the diesel engine had gained maximum fuel efficiency of 23 kilometers per litre.

Maruti Alto K10 AMT
Reportedly, Maruti Alto K10 AMT is nothing but the genuine AMT version of the stock Alto K10. Minor facelift given to differentiate it on the cosmetic front, one has to be precarious about it rollicking in the automatic format while overtaking at highways because of the smaller engine.

Maruti Celerio AMT
Looking to the numbers, more than half of the Celerios sold were of AMT trims being powered by the K-series engine of Maruti, but company fails to bank upon the demand of diesel buyers due to the unavailability of an example in its line-up. It consumes single litre of fuel per 23.1 kilometers.
