Both vehicles offer gasoline and diesel engines, and they embody three new advances in Tata Motors' offerings. "DesignNext" is a new "design language" meant to merge styling with comfort. "DriveNext" improves drivability by increasing responsiveness and performance while allowing for further fuel economy. "ConnectNext" pushes the driver's experience beyond the seat and into the smartphone, with new control and monitoring experiences from HVAC management to ergonomic preferences.
Both cars will be launched in India in 2014, with plans to push sales internationally afterward.
