Given the condition of most Indian roads, it would be foolish to even think about driving a million dollar car here. To add to it, most of us can't even dream about buying such uber-expensive cars in our lifetimes. However, there are certain luxury cars in the Indian market that we can hope to own later on in life.
While these might not be the absolute pinnacle of engineering perfection, they're certainly affordable luxury cars to aspire for!
Land Rover Range Rover Evoque
2.2L Pure
2179cc, Manual, Diesel, 10.0 - 14.0 kmpl
Rs. 44,75,000*
Jaguar XF (Rs. 48,37,000 /92851.64 $)
Nothing spells class better than showing up in this executive luxury car. While its top-of-the-line version costs about Rs. 75,00,000, the base model is considerably cheaper.
This car packs a 3.0 litre, AJ-V6 diesel motor that can power this car to a top speed of 248 kmh.
Audi TT Coupe

3189cc, Automatic, Petrol, 7.8 - 9.5 kmpl
Rs. 46,00,000*
BMW 5 Series 530d (Rs. 48,50,000 /92858.64$)
Nothing says you've arrived like driving around in the lap of one of the best cars that German engineering has to offer. The 5 Series is the second best-selling BMW model after the ever-popular 3 Series.
Along with a host of standard features, the 5 series also comes with a 3.0L 180kW 6 cylinder in-line engine under its beautiful body.

Mercedes-Benz E-Class E 350 (Rs. 49,60,000 /93858.64$)
The E-class is one of the most popular executive cars in India. This is another example of a perfect combination of German engineering and jaw-dropping good looks. Even its state-of-the-art interiors, which include all kinds of modern gadgets, exude class.
It 2987 cc engline and 7-speed transmission make this a very powerful car!
Audi A6 3.0 TFSI quattro (Rs. 47,00,000/92058.64$)
Since Audi stepped into the Indian market, the legendary A6 has given the E-class a run for its money. This car is as brilliantly designed as most cars that cost a whole lot more and it has the reliable Audi brand name backing it.
The A6 has a well-crafted 3.0L 229 bhp V6 TDI engine that gives it more power than all but the most demanding drivers would know what to with!
Volvo S 80 V8 AWD (Rs. 44,50,000 /85200.20$)
The S 80 is Swedish carmaker Volvo's flagship offering in the executive luxury genre. While Volvo is primarily known for making luxury buses and freight trucks in India, the S 80 is anything but an ugly workhorse.
This car has several mind-blowing features and also has a beast of a 4.4L, 8 cylinder petrol engine under the hood.
Honda Accord 3.5 V6 Inspire (Rs. 26,97,000 /51637.06$)
This is one of the most popular executive cars in the world. This is mostly because of its relatively cheap price tag that makes it very affordable. However, this is a product of high-tech Japanese engineering, and it doesn't fall short is any area as far as performance is concerned.
This value-for-money luxury car also sports an efficient 3.5L 271bhp V6 i-VTEC VCM engine.
AUDI A4
Skoda Superb 3.6 TFSI (Rs. 26,40,000 /50545.74$)
This is another comparatively low-priced luxury car that's becoming increasingly popular in India. This car draws its inspiration from the Skoda's parent company Volkswagen's Passat. However, the Superb is slightly bigger--and better-looking--than the Passat.
This car has a 3.6L 260bhp TFSI direct injection engine that can generate 256 hp at 6000 rpm!
The Audi A4 is a car built with innovative technology, amazing design, powerful engines, and class-leading luxury features delivering great comfort for the whole family. This high-performance sedan, in India, is available in five powertrain variansts, 1.8L TFSI, 2.0L TFSI, 3.2 V6 FSI Quattro petrol variant, 2.0 TDI diesel and 3.0L V6 TDI Quattro variant. The interior is enhanced with luxurious leather and brushed aluminum or wood trimmings to increase the level of passenger comfort.
