I'm actually wondering if they will even release the new Micra here. As for the cup it kind of defeats the purpose if all the cars are not exactly the same so I wouldn't count on that to speed things up at all. Imagine you invest in building a cup car and the next year they mandate yo have to buy a new car, unless highly incentivized that would suck.
Also it seems India will not be releasing the new design until the end of 2017. They just released a new model K13 there in early September it had some minor changes like interior color and a CVT transmission.
