RE:Wow

Toyota Corolla starts at less than Rs.6,00,000/- in US. Which is probably 3 month average pay for majority of US middle-class.

In India Alto sells at approximately Rs.3,20,000/- Which is perhaps average annual pay of Indian middle class.

Corolla in India sells for about Rs.11,00,000/- which is perhaps 3 years average pay of a middle-class car buyer.

I suppose buying a corolla in US is easier than buying an Alto in India.

Compare this - A swift in Singapore sells for about Rs.12,00,000/- So, be happy that we can afford cars that a typical singaporean can't! ;-)
