The Hindu Business Line : The Discover tempts

BAJAJ has launched a new version of the Discover DTS-I, making it even more tempting. The 125-cc bike comes with attractive body graphics, stickers, alloy wheels and rides on the SNS (spring-in-spring) suspension at the rear. The 17-inch alloy wheels are lighter and stronger than the regular steel rim wheels providing better efficiency. The six-spoke wheels further enhance the muscular styling.

The self-start option adds more value. The SNS suspension consists of dual co-axial springs. The thicker outer spring absorbs the impact of large bumps and the inner spring absorbs the impact of smaller bumps. The fluid grab rail, unlike the regular metal grab, gives it a smarter finish in the rear.

Machine for the young at heart

Porsche has launched the 911 Carrera Cabriolet, a convertible. A super-efficient 325 HP 3.6-litre engine powers the car to 100 kmph in an eye-popping 5.2 seconds. A 330-mm disc-brake system mounted on all four wheels brings the machine to a smooth, quick stop. The sports car carries a price tag of Rs 75 lakh. Once behind the wheel, the adrenalin keeps flowing.
