Hyundai i10 Nios 1.0 TGDi - 99 bhp / 900kgs - 110 bhp/ton.Hyundai Aura 1.0 TGDi - 99 bhp / 900kgs - 110 bhp/ton.Hyundai Venue 1.0 TGDi - 118 bhp / 1095 kgs - 108 bhp/ton.Honda Amaze 1.5 Diesel - 99 bhp/993 kgs - 100 bhp/ton.Maruti Suzuki Baleno Smart Hybrid 1.2 = 88.5 bhp / 865kgs = 102.3 bhp/ton.The S-Presso of 2021 has a higher power to weight than the old Ford Ikon 1.6, the WagonR of 2021 beats the Palio 1.6 Sports and a Hyundai Aura of 2021 makes more power for its weight than the first generation Honda City VTec and the original Honda Civic! Modern cars have become faster, at least in a straight line!ДЎ00 bhp/ton - Is it the new normal of 2021? Lets take a look at the long list of cars that hit over the 100 bhp/ton mark in 2021! (PS: Not a complete list, some companies don't reveal proper weight figures and please pardon any errors in my math! Nissan Magnite - 99 bhp / 1014 kgs - 98 bhp / ton.Maruti Suzuki DZire - 88.5 bhp / 880kgs - 101.7 bhp/ton.Maruti Suzuki WagonR 1.2 - 81.8 bhp / 830 kg - 98.6 bhp / ton.Maruti Suzuki S-Presso - 67.05 bhp / 726 kgs - 92.36 bhp / ton.Now, compare this to some present-day mass-market cars: First generation Honda City 1.5 VTec - 106 bhp/985 kgs - 107.6 bhp/ton.In fact, it was rare for even performance oriented cars to hit this magical number and most mass-market cars produced significantly less, mostly ranging between 70 - 80 bhp/ton. We all know 100 bhp/ton was considered a performance benchmark of the last decade. Not many appreciate the significant power to weight jump that has happened in modern cars! Hence this thread.Д«ut wait, what am I talking about? Let's consider a few examples. Recently we have discussed many improvements made by different brands in the last decade of the Indian Automotive Industry, and the various features that have become commonplace today - as compared to the luxury cars of the previous years! One common theme emerging in many a conversation is that people believe the recent past has been more about features than performance improvements - more bling than substance!
