New Cars With The Highest Waiting Period In India
New Cars With The Highest Waiting Period In India

New Cars With Highest Waiting Period In India

24 Sept 2024
Outline

The interest rates for car loans are at an all-time low and the need for owning a car or a personal vehicle is at an all-time high due to the pandemic. Every one or rather every family is looking to buy a car as it ensures safety over other modes of transport including two-wheelers and public transport. 

On the other hand, existing car owners are looking to upgrade to new-gen cars available for sale in 2021. The latest-gen cars come with various features such as touchscreen infotainment, cabin air-purifiers, connected car tech and improved driver aids that their predecessors lacked. Most of these require semiconductor chips and the global chip shortage coupled with demand have led to buyers rushing to car dealerships resulting in a rather long waiting period to buy new cars, anywhere between 4 to 9 months as of November 2021. 

The list of most popular new cars with the highest waiting period in India .

Mahindra Thar (9-10 months):

The new-gen Mahindra Thar received over 15,000 bookings within 17 days of its launch. The latest Thar is not just for the off-road enthusiast, but it has also become a much better urban vehicle capable of being a comfortable daily driver. No wonder the SUV has such high demand, the waiting period for select variants and colours of the Mahindra Thar is up to 10 months.

Mahindra XUV 700 ( Up to 9 months)

But with such high demand, the waiting period for the Mahindra XUV 700 in India is about 9 months.
