Its hardly been a week since the Mahindra-Renault JV took a turn and already Mahindra has initiated fresh plans for the dying Logan.
In a press release issued yesterday, Mahindra said a price cut of Rs 24,000 – Rs 65,000 is in effect for the BS4 Logan and Rs 27,000 to Rs 80,000 for the BS3 version.
Rajesh Jejurikar, chief executive of automotive at M&M -
With the impairment of assets the depreciation cost will go down and we aim to make our debt payment over the next few months which bring down the interest cost as well. We also believe the variable cost will go down. Because of integration, we will have better synergies within the Mahindra organization on various front and we are passing on those benefits through reduced pricing.

Technology is marching its way into the thick of things sending the vehicles on a futuristic roller with each passing day, yet keeping eco-credentials in the hood. Judging by the kind of conceptual dashboards high school students have designed for the Dash+ Contest we can surely reflect on what we could expect from our car’s dashboard in the future.
The school teams from Dash Tech of Dearborn, Michigan, EDV Technologies of Santa Barbara, California and Harker Innovation Team of San Jose, California have suggested dashboards with in-dash avatar to coach drivers toward efficiency, with smart navigation system to inform when to take public transport instead of the car and with a web enabled dashboard that rewards the economical drivers with “green points” redeemable for discounts at participating retailers respectively.
The winner of the DASH+ contest will be decided via online voting, so you can vote in for your favorite team that you think has a dash design that’ll maximize fuel efficiency by encouraging drivers to drive with a green foot.

After four years of designing and development, New Zealand’s Hulme has finally launched its Supercar named the “CanAm” after 1967 F1 champion Denny Hulme. Produced in a limited edition of just 20 cars, the mid-engined roadster is intended to run on both road and track. Presenting the rear wheel drive through a Quaife six-speed manual gearbox, the CanAm takes the braking system and safety aids from A.P. racing and Bosch respectively. Generating power from a LS7 V-8 engine, producing 600 horsepower and 443 pound-feet of torque, the Supercar is capable of accelerating from 0-62 mph in less than three seconds and can reach the top speed of above 200mph. Potential buyers needs to submit fully refundable £10,000 (about $14,400) to get their name on the order list.

The brain child of Taeho Yoon, the concept vehicle is all about user comfort, ads more to driving experience and works as a depression reliever. Dubbed the Muon, the concept car is optimally customized for physical and psychological condition in the first place. The concept car’s steering wheel features sensors that reads the pulses and plays the music on the internet as soon as the occupant touches it. Not only this, but the car has a mechanism that notes the feelings of the user and music that was played to repeat it in the future. Also, there is 100% personalized thermo sensor and heating wire in the seat to warm the body in the freezing cold weather. Vehicle takes care of the mood and e.g. a warm and fresh breeze of phytoncide is given off from the vent on the IP face to comfort occupant’s depressed soul. The interior of the vehicle is made from the complete environment-friendly material that gives one an impression to be in the greenhouse of the garden.
