Droom Hosts First Pre-owned Automotive Awards

DROOM, ONE OF THE LEADING ONLINE AUTOMOBILE MARKETPLACES in the country, recently organized the country’s first Pre-owned Automotive Awards. The idea was to highlight the rapidly growing usedvehicle market. Sandeep Aggarwal, founder and CEO of Droom, said, ‘India is the third largest automobile market globally. Since 2013, the number of used vehicles sold is higher than new vehicles sold in India. However, most of the ecosystem is still aligned with new vehicles.’ The major two-wheeler categories included the “Most Sold Bike on Droom” and the winner was the Hero Splendor Plus, “OBV Highest Resale Scooter of the Year” went to the Hero Maestro Edge, and the Hero Electric Optima E2 won the “Jury’s Choice Electric Scooter of the Year”.

Among cars, the Honda City won the “Buyer’s Choice Sedan of the Year”, while Mercedes-Benz C-Class claimed the “Dealer’s Choice Luxury Car of the Year”.

The criteria to judge each category were based on the points secured during the jury round along with online voting by the buyers and dealers.
