iPhone Duo or Car? Cars Available for Rs 4.5 Lakh
The iPhone Duo is a very expensive phone.
Its 2TB version costs about Rs 4.5 lakh.
That is close to the price of some small cars in India.
New cars such as the Alto K10 and S-Presso cost less than the phone before extra charges.
Other cars, including the Kwid, Celerio and Tiago, cost around the same amount.
Used-car buyers can find larger cars for similar money.
These may include the Baleno, Swift, Amaze, Grand i10 and Dzire.
So, someone must decide whether they want a high-end phone or a car for transportation.
Apple’s iPhone Duo 2TB variant costs Rs 4,49,900, comparable to an entry-level car.
The Maruti Suzuki Alto K10 and S-Presso are priced below the phone before on-road costs.
The Renault Kwid, Maruti Celerio, Tata Tiago and Wagon R are near or above the budget.
Used-car platforms list models such as the Baleno, Swift and Wagon R below Rs 5 lakh.
The choice comes down to prioritizing advanced technology or everyday mobility.
