India is a pot of melting cultures, and who's to say that this variety doesn't extend to the cars and their drivers? This diversity hits you hard when you see the different types of drivers and their patented driving styles on roads. You've got the swooshers swooshing past you, and the naggy pushers who are going to burst a vein honking, and you've got cruisers cruising like they're at sea and not on land. The latest in the lot are the subscribers. It's the way you like your drive that decides your car—it's your choice. We've decoded this diverse pool of motorists with their cars on Indian roads. 🚗
A majority of Indian drivers fall in this category. You use your car for commuting from point A to B. For you, fuel is gold. You have a set fuel budget for every month which you dare not exceed. You even consider carpooling to save costs further. You drive at moderate speeds yet reach the office on time. You prioritize fuel economy over spirited drive and advocate the same to fellow types of drivers.
Suggested cars for you: Maruti Suzuki Swift, Hyundai Grand i10, Tata Tiago, and similarly specced high-mileage cars.
You love LOVE revving the engine. The sound of downshifts and turbo spools teamed with free-flow exhaust notes is your high. The road is nothing less than an obstacle race. You are all speed and precision. A slight drop in its performance and your car makes its way to the service centre. And that 'service interval' is a bane! 🚧
Suggested cars for you: Hyundai Grand i10 Nios Turbo, Maruti Suzuki Baleno, Hyundai Venue, or any turbocharged petrol motor.
What's a ride without your favourite jam? The cars on Indian roads include many versions of you: yodelling Kishore Kumars, Mohammed Rafis in sur, the hustling rapper in a bustling city, or bopping to K-Pop. Your love for these songs is as good as the quality of your car's music system and speakers. From the radio to Bluetooth to aux connectivity, your infotainment has it all. Built-in amp speakers, double DIN console, tweeters are your must-haves🎵
Suggested cars for you: Tata Tiago, Kia Seltos, Hyundai Elite i20, and any other car with great sound quality.
Well-maintained, the cautious type
Come rain or sun, your ride always shines. Be it monsoon or winters, your car is always serviced and in pristine condition. Even if it's an older model, it's hard to judge its age, courtesy of your love for the car. You never neglect small issues, even if it's a minor scratch. And let's not forget the cautious type of drivers who follow the 2-second rule with safe trailing distance. What about you?
Suggested cars for you: Hyundai Verna, Maruti Suzuki Ciaz, Honda City, Toyota Innova Crysta, and more, depending on the budget.
No road or terrain is beyond your reach. You're just a Friday away from your next stay amidst the mountains, rivers, open farms, and no cell towers. Just like you, your vehicle goes anywhere: it has a high ground clearance and enough power to overcome any obstacle. There's none as handy at fixing car issues, given your experience with journey hiccups.
Suggested cars for you: Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, MG Hector, Mahindra XUV 700, Mahindra Thar, and more.
If you've got it, flaunt it; it's truest for luxury wheels. Exotic cars are to your taste. Your passion and collection of cars are the envy of the neighbourhood. Instead of opting for cheaper modification jobs, you go straight for the kill. The Astons, Bentleys, Rolls-Royces, and high-end German cars are what you'd like to see parked in your garage. When you drive, people try to figure out who passed by, and when you're parked, it's like the paparazzi have circled. Every weekend, you choose the smoothest highways to show the muscle of the horses rearing to go under the bonnet of your treasured possession.
Suggested cars for you: BMW X7, Jaguar F-Type, Porsche Cayenne, Lamborghini Urus, Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, and more.
The standard automobile designs don't make the cut for you. Your preferences are sorted when it comes to styling your car. Be it an entry-level Maruti Suzuki Alto 800 or a premium Volvo XC60, you know what the manufacturers have missed in lifting the overall vibe of the vehicle.
People know it's you the moment they hear that engine or catch a glimpse of that paint job. Whether it's tuning up the engine, adding faux exhausts, spoilers, new seat covers, music system, or broader, imposing tyres, you are the centre of attraction wherever you go.
Suggested cars for you: Mahindra Thar, Maruti Suzuki, Swift, Hyundai i20, Mahindra Scorpio, and others as per your taste.
