No doubt Hyundai has done a tremendous job. But your first statement is kind of odd.

Another surprise is that Hyundai has more haters than Fiat
I am one of those who have voted for Hyundai
because in my mind I have written off FIAT from Indian auto scene mainly because I honestly belive when you sell car you don't sell that unit but rather you sell the package.

So I voted Hyundai because for me they are one of the company who are one of the rival whoes sales number can make an impact on other auto companies
while voting I kept this as my filter & voted
no offence ment to anyone

You're kidding, right? Have you driven one of them? 100% torque at startup, the turning radius of an autorickshaw, FRP (read cheap) body panels, all the creature comforts, and 35p/km! And you can literally pick any colour under the sun!

Besides bro, it's an Indian car. Some guy had the intestinal fortitude to put his money where his mouth was, and come up with a concept that will probably be the mainstay of the next century of automobiles.

I love that car, and if I didn't have to travel 100km every day, I'd buy one without blinking.

the coolest part about reva is when you have parked it & charging you can turn on AC before you can start driving
very cool concept, should I say missing from luxury cars too

To me its Maruti..selling the lakhs of unsafe cars, which with increase in vehicles on road will prove a deathtrap for owners. They have used their dominant market position like a pervert.

TATA it has to be....
Reason : over stretching a design ... Indica ... Indigo .. Marina ... Indicab .... i am seriously getting bored now.


on the other hand, i must say hats off to Mr. Ratan Tata - he stepped his company into something that they had never done before ( making a car ).

Hard to hate a car company.... though can hate cars

So let it be Honda.... for launching a car that looks like a space shuttle... and pricing it as if it was actually one!

Toyota for me.

I hate them big time for bringing in an antique car and sell it at a premium.

shameless freaks they are.

and even their models dont arouse any curiosity.

runnerup will be hyundai. Never seen such big paper tigers before.

maini motors.....cos if they would have priced their reva more sensibly(as sensbily as their decision to actually go ahead and make this car) then it would single handedly have topped the sub a segment charts and carved a whole new niche for itself........shame on you reva......

Voted for Hyundai for their unethical business (in marketing)

FIAT comes second,as they fail to sell their gems, nevertheless, they manufacture great cars!!!

Thumbs down

Hyundai for me, Coz there prices keep coming down affecting the resale value of the vehicle. Besides they are the ones to get involved in the most unethical marketing exercises and fooling the bholi-bhaali janata of the country with their sub-standard cars.
