Views: Over 17 lakh
One of our most humorous-yet-realistic YouTube Shorts of 2025 that became popular was where we explained how the car-buying decision has evolved from a customer’s point of view from 2005 to 2025. While during the early 2000s, car buying was solely a question of fuel type and transmission choice, in more recent times, it’s gone beyond just the basics. Although it is good to have a plethora of options, the Shorts does highlight the numerous questions that arise in a new-car buyer’s mind today given the availability of various powertrains, and all the debate and uncertainties surrounding EVs as well as the future of diesel vehicles in India.
