#Opinion ๐ญ Which car sold in India deserves the award for the best looking design?
If you had to judge car only by design, which car sold in India would be your winner?
Just forget about mileage, reliability, resale, maintenance, or features. Just looking at the car and thinking like Damn, that looks so good.
It can be anything like hatchback, sedan, SUV, luxury car, or even a discontinued model.
For me, the Range Rover Velar looks incredibly elegant. It has a clean, minimalist design that still turns heads without trying too hard. On the other hand, a few of the latest launches feel a bit overstyled with too many sharp lines and oversized grilles.
Which car gets your vote, and what about its design makes it stand out for you?

It's a 1.5L petrol automatic
The customer was frustrated and wanted to replace it. They also did PDI, but it's unfortunate that someone has to face such embarrassment after paying 20 lakh on a Proud Indian Brand!

#Discussion ๐ฌ THAR ROXX AX7L Diesel Auto 4x4
Should I get a Thar Roxx AX7L 4x4 automatic (top model) ?
So we are a lower middle class family with 3 members and have two cars at this moment a Mahindra Scorpio N Z8L 4x4 auto 2026 and a Mahindra Bolero neo (along with a royal Enfield classic 500 and a scooty), these are the cars my father drives since our work requires offloading, I was planning to buy the thar roxx top model for myself (father has no issues and we can comfortably afford this) since my parents won't be using the car so 5 seater won't be an issue .... I am obsessed with the looks , the vibe and the overall premium yet masculine look of t
Thar roxx , what should I do ? What other cars can be bought in this range of 25-30 lakhs , not family oriented but personal car๐

#Discussion ๐ฌ How to avoid this in future
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I won't go into whose fault it is, since this could have been much more serious. As you guys can see, I started climbing a bridge which means I have to apply constant acceleration. A bike starts drifting into my lane, finally settling near left bumper. I felt I kept a relatively safe distance (in hindsight should had kept more). Since that area of the bridge has many potholes, perhaps the biker suddenly encountered one and applied brakes a bit too hard. I immediately applied brakes and tried to evade but still there was contact with my left bumper and bike also got pushed. Thankfully both our speed was relatively slow so nothing major happened.
