Walk into any detailing studio in India and you’ll see “9H Ceramic Coating” plastered on banners, brochures and quote cards. It sounds impressive. It sounds scientific. And for most car owners spending anywhere between ₹15,000 and ₹80,000 on car paint protection, it sounds like a promise of near-indestructible paint. But here’s what nobody tells you […]

You’ve done the research. You’ve watched the walkaround videos, compared the variants and finally decided on the car. Then the dealership hands you a price quote and the number is significantly higher than what you saw on the brand’s website. Welcome to one of the most common and most frustrating moments in the Indian car-buying […]

Your EV is built for the future. But the roads you drive on are very much in the present, with potholes, rocks, pebbles and loose gravel. And not to forget the monsoon grime, bird droppings and tree sap. Your electric car’s outer body is as much in danger as a regular petrol or diesel car […]

Let’s be honest: some cars don’t die; they just stop being made. And in India, the emotional bond between a driver and their car is unlike anything else. We name them. We wash them on Sunday mornings. We cry a little (internally) when they get their first dent. So when a beloved model gets axed, […]

White is the most popular car colour in India. Walk into any housing society parking lot and count, you’ll find more Pearl Whites, Glacier Whites and Polar Whites than every other colour combined.

So you’ve made the switch. A shiny new EV is parked in your garage and you’re feeling great about the planet. But here is the question your showroom brochure probably skipped: How do you actually maintain it? While your old petrol car could survive a basic wash at any local car service centre, your EV […]

The Mahindra Scorpio is not just a car, it’s an attitude. Whether it’s the rugged original Scorpio Classic that’s earned its stripes on highways across India or the more evolved, feature-rich Scorpio-N that commands every road it rides on, there’s something deeply iconic about this SUV. It’s been a symbol of aspiration, toughness and pride […]

Let’s be honest: for most of us, a car is a tool to get from Point A to Point B. But for a select few, Point A is a mansion and Point B is a private jet hangar. Here’s a quick thought for you: Theoretically, the most expensive car in India is probably a vintage […]

During the summer, your car’s window glass starts acting like a magnifying glass, trapping solar energy inside a metal box. Most Indian car owners assume that “blacker” windows mean a cooler car. That is the first mistake. Darkness does not equal heat rejection. In fact, cheap dark films often absorb heat and radiate it right […]

Someone recently asked, “I’m planning to sell my Honda City in two years. A friend says I should get PPF done now. But do Indian buyers even care about PPF car protection when buying used?” It’s a fair question. Split right down the middle, some said it’s a waste of money, while others said it […]
