SUMMER is synonymous with vacations, colorful sceneries and long drives to take it all in. What better vantage point to experience the marvels of nature than a comfortable car that goes from breezy open-top to a closed air-conditioned cabin at the flick of a button — because summer also means heat. That is why convertibles are always the best choice for car owners who look for adaptability and performance at every turn. Convertibles today are not just great performers, but also handsome looking vehicles. Each carmaker tries to out-do competition by making their vehicles look different and stylish, which sets them up to be the perfect prop in your Instagram stories.
Since they come in so many sizes and are offered by brands of high repute, picking the right convertible for your summer adventures could get confusing. To help you appreciate each car’s nuances and strengths we have handpicked four of the choicest convertibles that are scorching the Indian roads with their head-turning abilities and adaptability to our roads.
