Reach India's Most Engaged Automotive Audience
The automotive purchase journey has changed. Today's car buyers spend weeks researching, comparing, and building confidence before making decisions. They're looking for intelligence, not just information—and they're doing it on platforms they trust.
Cartoq connects you with over 2.5 million engaged automotive researchers who aren't just browsing—they're actively deciding which car to buy.
Why Cartoq?
An Audience That's Ready to Buy
Our users aren't casual browsers. They're serious car buyers in the middle of one of life's biggest purchase decisions.
The Cartoq User:
- Actively researching their next vehicle purchase
- Spending 30-90 days in decision mode
- Comparing 2-5 models systematically
- Building confidence through deep analysis
- High purchase intent with financial readiness
Unlike traditional automotive portals where users quickly bounce after checking specifications, Cartoq users return multiple times, save their research, and engage deeply with content. This creates premium opportunities for meaningful brand connections.
