While the Ford India website has adequate content, i find that they dont update the snaps there much. Their gallery section is what i find lacking. They need to put up some good pics of their product range.

I used to like the webpage MUL had for the Swift.

Which company (car mfgs) has the best website ?

Gurus,

Which website do you like most ? ( I am talking about websites of car manufactures only). Which site gives the ease of searching the details of a car ?

GM.com is my favorite following Porsche's site. I like the way engine specs pops up in VW wbsite ( The Official Website for Volkswagen UK : Volkswagen UK ). Fiat has the worst website, always difficult to find the details. I did not find Skoda website user friendly, we are forced to download PDFs for viewing the spec.

I can say the poorest in India is Toyota India website while their other country websites are much better. :-)

Toyota - Welcome to the world of Toyota In India

I really like the Maruti Suzuki "Planning to buy a car" section, presentation is simple
but very impressive.

tata's site has always been well organized, but the recent (post vista) flash only sites are quite inconvenient (and more so to a flash hater like me) , especially their menus. Its a good thing they have a sitemap link everywhere

maruti's swift special site is pretty bad. similarly hyundai's i10 special site is not very aesthetically pleasing.

cheers

The Fiat UK website is just amazing. The Car Configuration page is the best.

Fiat.co.uk | Fiat Showroom : Latest Offers, Book a Test Drive, Fiat Car Range and more

Toyota's website in Asian countries incl. India is very simple and boring. The US website is quite good.
I find Hyundai's website to be very difficult with too many animations and automatic links opening.
Honda's site is quite good and quick to get info from. So is Chevrolet.
Maruti's is also quite good.

fiat punto website

The look and feel of Fiat Punto website looks quite good. Even if the car is still to be launched, it's a good start by Fiat. Lets see when the site is revealed in it's full glory on 17th.

Tata Motors - Commercial Vehicles - Showcase - MCV
tata's commercial vehicle webiste. they never update their truck photos, there are still old truck and pics on their webiste. if they want to be a global player in commercial segment then they have to change the photos.
