DC Design not only had the Eleron open-top SUV on show in Delhi - the Indian design firm, headed by designer Dilip Chhabria, also showcased the Tia, a compact two-seater, mid-engined coupe, sans roof. Shades of the Smart fortwo, yes.
Power comes from a 1.2 litre turbocharged petrol lump, and the Euro V-compliant unit is good for 120 hp and 190 Nm. Paired with a four-speed automatic transmission, which drives the rear wheels, the Tia is capable of doing the century sprint in nine seconds and reaches a top speed of 160 km/h.
The 2,550 mm-long Tia - which sits on 18-inch wheels - tips the scales at 950 kg, and like the Eleron, features a space frame design and carbon composite body. Like the Eleron, reports indicate that DC is planning to bring the compact out into the market sometime in 2016.
