Transport in India - Local transport - Cars
The demand for cars in India is one of the highest in
the world. In 2002, more than 50,000 new cars were
bought in Delhi alone. Compact cars predominate due to
low cost. Maruti, Hyundai, Tata Motors and Ford are the
most popular brands in the order of their market share.
The clunky Ambassador once had a monopoly but is now an
icon of pre-liberalisation India, and is still used by
politicians. Maruti 800 launched in 1984 created the
first revolution in the Indian auto sector because of
its low pricing. It had the highest market share until
2004, when it was overtaken by other low cost models of
Maruti and those of foreign entrants like Hyundai. Over
the 20 year period since its introduction about 2.4
million units of Maruti 800 have been sold.
