Honda has obviously seen some good days in its time. Then over the time, petrol prices gone high, diesel stayed at rupees 46 till this month. This month, diesel price hiked 5 rupees (approx, they reduced slightly later), which was hike after almost 15 months. While petrol price increases every month i think.
Problem with Honda is they only have petrol engines! Honda City which was a bit hit once upon a time, have seen big fall in sales due to petrol price and its competitors like Hyundai Verna and Volkswagen Vento has diesel variants available.
Honda is planning to launch diesel cars in India, there seems no other way to be in competition. Honda Brio is the first to get diesel engine. Honda Brio Diesel
But sadly, Honda has to build new diesel engines, which is taking time. Honda has already stopped importing Honda Accord and Honda Civic in India due to lack of interest.

Ranil wrote about TVS Wego here, thought i should share it with you.
TVS Wego User Review, mileage, service, performance
Being the best designed bike in 2011, I thought wego will be the scooter killer.
But I was WRONG.
Until the 3rd service, bike ran smoothly. Average 40Kmpl. One shot self start…etc After 8 months of usage, I’m starting to think what crap have I spent my money on….
Extrememly poor milage. Full tank & investigated, it ran total 130Km only (which is just 26Kmpl). Mind you, this is ZERO traffic during a weekend.
So called maintenance free battery died and I have to work on kick start. Self start is no more.
In traffic, the engine goes off for no reason & it takes 30-40 kicks to get the engine back on running, given that the vehicle behind you just did not run over you… I was verbaly abused by so many cops & drivers for being a traffic maker…
Even TVS head office service team has no answer to the issues.
I’ve made a mistake. You make sure you don’t make too…
