re: BYOD | Build Your Dream Car for 20 lakhs OTR

My perfect car would be a Rapid tdi dsg with fiesta's hps steering and linea's suspension.

Or a swap that is actually possible:
A first gen Figo with the 1.6 petrol motor ��

Or a jazz with the city's 1.5 VTEC motor

re: BYOD | Build Your Dream Car for 20 lakhs OTR

I’m really happy with my current ride, Mk3 Octavia 1.4Tsi, every time I drive it I get the sense that it is all the car that I ever wanted.
My wish list is to have a remap, not that it is a slouch but just to improve the low end slightly.
Sweet set of 17” wheels.
And that’s it I guess my ride is set. The sense of satisfaction I get while driving it is immense and it just helps me turn a bad day into a good one.
I will be working on the wish list soon.

I’ll take a Hexa with a slightly lighter steering, much better headlights, a 100 liter fuel tank and 4x4 to go with the automatic. It will be THE perfect car to go touring in.

re: BYOD | Build Your Dream Car for 20 lakhs OTR

Mine is super simple. 330i with Octavia’s boot space. Nothing else should change - price, handling characteristics etc.
I am putting my money today if that becomes reality.

Re: BYOD | Build Your Dream Car for 20 lakhs OTR

I think most people missed the 20-lakhs OTR comment in the OP's post, so added it to the title .

My dream car <20 lakhs would be a Red Mahindra Thar with Hexa-like ride quality (it's possible), superior road manners @ 120 kmph so I can go touring in it, some features of the XUV700 & the reliability of an Innova.

The Thar Diesel AT is my no.1 car under 20 lakhs.

Re: BYOD | Build Your Dream Car for 20 lakhs OTR

Hey, instead of such a dream car, can't we Team-BHPians come together and start our own car company? We know almost everything about cars, the pros and cons of all cars/brands/technology, ride, handling, safety, etc. With all this knowledge, can't we think of starting a new Indian car brand like Lucid, Rivian, etc with exactly what we want? Just a thought..

Re: BYOD | Build Your Dream Car for 20 lakhs OTR

So, with the updated constraints, my dream car is

Toyota Harrier 4x4 with the 170HP BS4 Diesel AT with a Panoramic Sunroof.

It has power and handling for the highways
4x4 for the bad stuff
Space to take the family and luggage in total comfort.
BS4 for the added reliability of not having to deal with a DPF.

I understand that such a combination already exists on the Jeep Compass. But it is smaller and doesn't fit the 20 Lakh criteria

To go even wilder, here goes.
An Altroz based (Alfa Platform?) Nexon EV with a realistic range of 400km and a Panoramic Sunroof. Go a bit longer than 4 meters and call it the Sierra while you are at it, it won't change GST structure anyways. Too much to ask? I think it should be possible within 20 lakh when MG can *almost* do it at 25.

Re: BYOD | Build Your Dream Car for 20 lakhs OTR

I would take an old Tempo traveller, drop in a LSX454+T56 after beefing up the chassis, suspension, brakes and rubber.

It may cross 20L but for a guy who started with a 2L Nano XE and ended up with the 6L Figo 1.5D Base, I know it is par for the course.

I wouldn't spend even a small bit on distractions like alloys, gadgetry, paints, leather, airconditioning, etc.

This will have good space, performance, low maintenance and an FE that is "best in class".

The ground clearance will make it practical for our roads.

Re: BYOD | Build Your Dream Car for 20 lakhs OTR

Mine would be, a Toyota Fortuner 4x4 Automatic with the following additions.
1. The dashboard wrapped in leather
2. Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
3. Black premium roofliner instead of the cheap one given now.
4. All the features of Legender which are not available in normal Fortuner.
Finally, lower price, around 36-37 Lakhs on the road.

Mine is the Thar Diesel Automatic + more space for rear seat accommodating 3 passengers + more boot space with all 5 passengers (>400 Ltrs) + matured ride on the highways at 120 kmph+ stability at high speeds in corners + easy ingress / egress.
