The other big change for Maruti has been that you are now moving up the value chain and so instead of Rs 3,50,000 cars, the market has now moved to Rs 5,50,000-7,50,000 cars. You know the mileage kitna deti hai which really means higher and higher fuel efficiency of the vehicles, that is not going to go away. Euro-VI will mean higher fuel efficiency, lower emissions for the same kind of distance run which again means more efficient fuel consumption, fuel burning in the engine. Today those features are being demanded by people who buy a car in the Rs 7-10 lakh or even a Rs 5-7 lakh range and that is what I think all manufacturers will have to do. I know never to ask a parent which one is the favourite child but which has been your all-time favourite Maruti car?
