so i recently went on vacation to bangladesh and india for 3 weeks. when i was there pretty much all the cars were as small as or smaller than a metro. in bangladesh at least a fifth of the cars in the city were maruti suzuki 800s/zens, little 800cc 4 door hatchbacks that make the geo metro look huge. when i went to india at least half of the cars were suzukis and at least one out of ten were suzuki swifts, and i gotta say im jealous we cant get them cus they are soooooooo cool. heres a few pics, i didn't get the chance to snap that many pics since we were in a moving car most of the time. the first pic is the maruti, most of them were taxis but this one was private owned and not all beat up. the second pic is a suzuki swift parked next to a suzuki micro bus. the micro bus (don't remember the real name) was skinnier and shorter than the swift. it looked like a shrunk down vw bus. it looked like it could seat quite a few people though. ![]()

Oh my, that's awesome. I'd love to go to India. What made you choose India for vacation? |

Micro van is called a "Wagon R", 800 is called "Alto" in most of the world. They used to make racy, turbo versions of both, very cool. |

Looks nice, thanks for sharing. The rest of the world seems to have a bit better grasp on making the most of a vehicle (perhaps it's because either fuel or the vehicle is expensive for them) while we (North Americans) don't seem to get it. |

yeah, it's a combination of the cars price and the available space on the road. i only have videos of the traffic but you wouldn't want a car much larger than a motorcycle if you plan on moving more than 100 feet per minute over there. one day in bangladesh, on the way to a wedding, it took us an hour and a half to travel a little over a mile in a nissan sunny (sentra).
