Here is a list of Top 5 cars for women drivers in India. According to the estimates, women buyers are now hold 10-12% of the total purchase share and moreover, even men's decision of buying a car is dominated by the women.

The last ten years have seen a significant shift in the decision-making process for buying an automobile in India, which has traditionally been dominated by men. Industry estimates indicate that 10–12% of all new car purchases are now made by women. That is roughly 3 to 4 lakh clients! In fact, it's estimated that between 15% and 20% of luxury car buyers are women. This growth is explained by more women entering the workforce, rising purchasing power, and improved awareness due to the internet. In response to the rising demand, automakers are introducing convenience features that female drivers will also find useful.

According to research, these are what women buyers perceive to be essential: -

• Automatic / AMT Cars: Because they are more convenient and because they won't stall for beginners, which can happen with manual transmission cars, automatic / AMT cars are also easier to operate because there isn't a manual clutch.
• Seating and Visibility: Driver seat with height adjustment and excellent side, rear, and bonnet visibility.
• Steering: Light Steering feedback and a lower turning radius is preferred. Moreover, Electric Power Steering with tilt is preferred as well.
• Easy to Park: Rearview camera with reverse parking sensor is a must for easy parking.

It would be considered "icing on top" if the car has smooth linear pickup, good aesthetically pleasing interiors, a connected car music system with voice command, and an electric sunroof.

Well, considering all the facts and data points, down below is a list of top 5 cars that are best for the women masses of India.

Renault Kwid

Unquestionably, the Renault Kwid is one of India's most attractive entry-level vehicles. The Kwid checks virtually all the correct boxes when you include its long list of goodies (7-inch touchscreen, back armrest, reverse parking camera, to mention a few) and the ease of an AMT.

You'll be happy to know that the Kwid boasts THE most comfortable ride among the entry-level hatchbacks if your commute to work is full of potholes, speed bumps, and rumble strips. The Kwid offers more than enough room for people and their belongings, with a 279-litre boot, in case you need to transport a whole house for a weekend road trip. The AMT option is available in this car and therefore, the list of all features required are checked.

Hyundai Santro AMT Sportz Automatic

Hyundai introduced a brand-new version of the Santro, an entry-level hatchback, in 2018. The car comes standard with a driver and passenger airbag, as well as an anti-lock braking system, EBD, and other safety features. The front fascia of this automobile is equipped with halogen headlights and fog lights, while the back has a parking camera with sensors, a rear wiper with a washer, and a window defogger.

A dual-toned theme cabin is available for the Santro. The central information screen is a 6.9-inch touchscreen with phone navigation. Along with MirrorLink connectivity, it enables Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and both. Power windows, a multifunction steering wheel, electric-assist ORVMs, and other features are also included with the vehicle. All of these features at a price of Rs. 6.00 Lakh (ex-showroom) for the AMT variant.

Maruti Baleno

The Maruti Baleno is quite attractive and is popular among the fairer sex. The 16-inch machine-cut alloy wheels and projector LED projector headlamps with DRLs give it outstanding detailing in addition to its classic top hat. The inside has voice control, a 7-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, leather upholstery, push-button start/stop, and front centre armrest.

The 1.2-liter mild-hybrid engine's tractability and fuel efficiency (23.87kmpl for manual transmission) make even driving a relaxing experience. Although the clutch motion is light on its own, the Maruti Baleno also comes with a CVT if you like the convenience of two pedals.

Hyundai Verna

Many women adore the sedan body shape because it exudes grace in a way that SUVs and other shrunken-down sub-4-meter vehicles simply cannot. And the recently updated Hyundai Verna comes to mind as a potential contender. Full-LED headlights with LED daytime running lights, machine-cut 16-inch alloy wheels, an electric sunroof (which also expands the interior space), a smart trunk (which enables hands-free boot opening), ventilated seats (which cool the front seats), and front and rear armrests for greater comfort are all included.

The Verna also has BlueLink technology, which enables remote access to the climate control, perimeter alarm, and geo-fencing, as well as other safety features like real-time position tracking. Six airbags, ISOFIX child seat mounts, and driver assistance features including ESC (electronic stability control), hill start assist control, and vehicle stability control are all standard on the Verna's safety features list.

The several engine options, including 1.5- and 1.0-liter gasoline and 1.5-litre diesel engines, are another ace in Verna's deck. Each of these has an automatic transmission (though a 7-speed dual-clutch is standard on the 1.0-litre).

Kia Seltos

It goes without saying that the platforms, engine, and gearbox options, along with the majority of its features, are shared by the Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos. Both SUVs have a wide selection of unique colour options, including dual-tone paint schemes. The styling is where there is a significant difference, although we would leave that up to personal preference.

Regardless of the SUV you choose, it will come equipped with features like LED headlamps with DRLs, 17-inch alloy wheels, a 10.25-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a sunroof (bigger panoramic in the Creta), a Bose sound system, an air purifier (with a perfume diffuser in the Seltos), six airbags, a tyre pressure monitoring system, and connected technologies that enable remote access to the climate control, Yes, there is also a sunglass holder if that answers your question. You'll be relieved to know that all of the engine options for the two SUVs are also available with an automatic transmission if you spend a lot of time behind the wheel.
