Made in India Cars

Due to the current pandemic, our economy has taken a huge toll in terms of financial losses. At this period of time, many Indians have considered swapping goods made by foreign companies to the products that are made by Indian companies.

This change will help in regaining the economy. Therefore in terms of cars, we look at the companies and the products that are manufactured 100% in our country. We give a segment-wise breakdown of the made in India products.

Hatchback

In the hatchback segment, the Tata Tiago comes into the picture. Being a Tata car, all of the parts are manufactured locally by the company. It is also priced economically with Rs 4.60 – 6.60 lakhs (ex-showroom). It only gets a petrol engine and no diesel option, but the petrol is offered with a manual as well as an automatic transmission. It is also one of the safest cars of its segment getting a NCAP rating of four stars.

The Tata Altroz that was launched by the company this year also comes in the higher segment at a premium position. Know more about the Tata Altroz HERE

MPV

In the MPV segment, the Mahindra Marazzo is one such car that is manufactured completely in India. It is the only car that has been able to give competition to the Maruti Ertiga.

The car is very spacious on the inside and also very comfortable for long journeys. It costs between Rs 10- 14.76 lakhs (ex-showroom).

Premium luxury cars

While there is no presence of Indian manufacturers in this segment, Jaguar and Land Rover cars would be the preferred choice in this criteria. This is due to the reason that JLR is owned by none other than Tata.
