On the mechanical front, the new Hyundai Santro is likely to draw power from a 1-litre petrol engine. Hyundai might also introduce an AMT gearbox as it is becoming very popular among the entry-level hatchbacks. The new Santro will be equipped with a 5-speed manual gearbox as standard.
Hyundai has also started the naming campaign for the new AH2 hatchback called as ‘Naamkaran’. The company has invited name suggestions for the upcoming hatchback which will have a new name as a suffix to the Santro moniker. The name of the car will be also revealed on October 9 along the car.
