The showstoppers
Honda African Twin

- You can dream of the places you could take it
- Its 998 cc engine produces 93 bhp; more powerful than some cars
- To be assembled in India. That means price may be affordable
Vitara Brezza

- It’s the one many might buy after ogling at the Mustang
- It’s Maruti’s first real shot at the SUV market
- It’s really pretty, and has beautiful colours
Ford Mustang

- It’s one to ogle at, but not for everyone to buy
- The product head for this 50th year edition is an Indian — Prakash Patel
- Walt Disney cut the ribbon for the car’s launch in 1964

Where
India Expo Mart, Greater Noida, much to the relief of the Delhiites who used to suffer traffic jams around Pragati Maidan till 2012
Getting There
Take the free shuttle from Botanical Garden Metro Station. You can also drive, but be ready for stops and starts, though DND will not charge from 8 am to 10 am for those going to Noida and 5 pm to 9 pm for those coming to Delhi
Where to park
There is ample parking. The organisers have taken up a large field that can hold 13,000 cars. It’s free
Entry gates
Avoid No. 1, it’s only for VIPs. And also No. 9 and 10, which are service gates
Food
If you intend to spend the day at the Expo, do ensure you buy your food court card early enough as no cash is accepted at the counters serving food. The huge lines at lunch hour implied that not only was the wait for food long, getting the card was a nightmare in itself.
