Question → shortlist

Ask in plain language

The hero finder takes a real need — budget, family use, city driving — and turns it into a shortlist. The product starts from life context, not a vague segment.

Product decisions

01

Start from real life, not a segment

The finder asks for budget, daily drive, passengers, and must-haves, then shortlists trims against Indian prices and usage — so the answer fits a life, not a brochure category.

02

Keep ownership cost attached

EMI, fuel, and five-year running cost stay beside the recommendation. Spec sheets look close until ownership pressure shows up; DriveScope surfaces that earlier.
