My two cents...

As in any opportunity. The Supply is geared to meet up the Demand in the market. Less than 15 years ago, predominantly, the market consisted of Amby's and 800s and the people were buying them in hordes.

Adya's point is well taken about people buying cars predominantly on FE. But, the other side of the coin is that the masses are getting exposed to newer technology which while being performance driven doesn't necessarily comprise on FE. The Indian Auto companies will only give the people what they think the people will pay for happily. Few years ago, we were thinking whether a 10 Lac Rs/- car would sell in India and today they happily co-exist with the 800s and Santros.

The point here is that.. "They" refers to the market as it exists today while "We" ( The Auto forums) refers to the market that should be and as you can understand from the 15 year transition, both are required to take the market to the next level.

" 'They' to sustain it, 'We' to drive the next generation".

Thanks and regards,
Sumit
