While cars today come fairly well equipped from the factory itself, modifying vehicles is a very common practice to suit your requirements and get the most out of your car
The aftermarket customisation scene in the Indian market has been relevant since years, and it continues to grow its popularity with more and more enthusiasts wanting to change how their car comes from the factory. While you can mod literally any car you desire, it is easier for some specific cars considering their popularity in the aftermarket scene.
We have put together a list of the top 5 most mod-friendly cars in the Indian market, take a look –
1. Maruti Suzuki Swift
The Maruti Suzuki Swift is one of the best-selling cars in the Indian market and is also one of the most popular cars in the aftermarket scene.

The Mahindra Thar is undoubtedly the most mod-friendly SUV in the country, hands down. Almost all Mahindra Thar owners in the country have modded their car in one way or another, and the ever-growing popularity of the new-gen Thar means that we will get to see more modified Thars on the road now.
