Worst car on indian roads!

varunroy · 1st March 2010, 23:56

I have voted for the Tata Sumo and no medals for guessing why?

So long.....

Has to be the Omni, which dates back to the year 50 B.C.

It easily Beats even the Amby, which IMHO is at least safe!

maglev · 2nd March 2010, 00:24

My vote goes to the Fiat Palio Stile 1.1

sunil8089 · 2nd March 2010, 00:26

No doubt.... its Indica...

jaspal singh · 5th March 2010, 23:15

Mahindra Xylo is the worst car, in modern day indian auto industry!

Nitrous Power · 6th March 2010, 07:40

It has to be San Storm.

vrprabhu · 6th March 2010, 12:07

I am not willing to accept that Omni can be called a "CAR"?!!

gomzi · 6th March 2010, 12:29

going by Dippy's review and a peek I had into a parked example, it has to be the San Storm

san2 · 6th March 2010, 17:34

In my view Tempo Trax is not a car
the sumo is many times better compared to this design masterpiece

ishlinea7260 · 6th March 2010, 22:24

i guess it has to be the Sonalika rhino.

vikramk · 8th March 2010, 22:43

Currently the Indica.
And a couple of years later - the Nano

Among the cars i have driven , Omni is significantly the worst - even worser than a 1970s model fiat padmini my dad.

But looks wise ..trax is the worst ..tough to find uglier cars or trucks ..

Never seen this San Storm that seems to have got lot of votes(did it release in south india?)

From proper manufacturers, it has to be the Omni. Totally unsafe and uncomfortable. I dont think it will be allowed to be sold in many countries today.

There should be some basic safety norms for cars in india too..

Wagon R makes me want to rip my hand off, just so that I have something to throw at it. (Courtesy: Friends) It boggles my mind that so many went out and bought it and still buy it. Agreed Substance has to be over Form, but something this Ugly is an insult. And another popular Car, Santro, is not far behind in terms of ugliness.

Just so that Cheap doesn't have to be Ugly, have a look at the ALto, and old Zen. Its all about proportions.

I have gone for Maruti Omni for its low on sfatey.
