POPULAR CARS IN INDIA

India has a population of 1.2 billion and 7 in 1000 people own a car in India which makes India a very huge market and to meet the demands of this market there is almost every big manufacturer present in the country giving the consumers a plethora of choices, but there are some cars which are sold the most and are above the rest in that segment. Here we will be looking at those cars which are most favoured by Indian consumers in every price range and what makes that particular car stand out. UNDER Rs 4 LAKH- There are many cars under this price category like Hyundai EON, Tata Indica ev2 and the base models of some cars like A-star and Chevrolet Beat but after the entry of Tata in this category with its NANO this segment has been clearly ruled by it challenging the dominance of Maruti’s ALTO. The 2 most popular cars in this segment are ALTO and NANO. The things going for these 2 cars are different because NANO is the best choice in terms of price and value for money whereas alto is better choice in terms of performance and Maruti’s trust value. Both of them are great choices and are very popular with the buyers. UNDER Rs 8 LAKH- This category can be further divided in 2 categories- Hatchback- Almost all the hatchbacks are targeted for this price range(except luxury hatchbacks) and there are just too many choices for the buyer. Starting from Wagon r, i10, brio, i20, swift, punto, polo the cars in this category are the most purchased after the 1st category and all of them offers great features with a decent design and performance. The most popular cars in this category are Maruti’s wagon r and swift and Hyundai ‘s i10 with almost no car in their competition in terms of their sale and after sales service. Polo has also made a mark in the market but its pricing and features are well beaten by other cars. Sedan- Many sedans have their base model priced in this category like Maruti’s swift desire, Hyundai verna, Tata manza , ford fiesta, Honda amaze, Vento and many more but the king of this segment is Honda city. City is undoubtedly Honda’s best car in terms for value for money with a powerful engine, good wheelbase and brand value. Though its price starts at 7.88 lakhs and it will cost more than 8 lakhs on road but those extra bucks spent are well worth it. UNDER Rs 20 LAKHS- These segments has many choices and mostly are the various models of sedans and crossovers. Sedans-
