About the application:

  • The app is designed to help you fetch and know about the right combination of oils for your vehicle.
  • The app is currently available only on Android and IOS and could also be made available for windows at a later stage but no plans to launch it for Blackberry operating systems.
  • The app consumes internet data which is provided by your telecom operator.
  • The app currently has a database search for across 70,000 models, variants and platforms across India, with updates it would gradually increase to 1,50,000 which is the approximate number of models, variants and platforms of all the automobiles running in the country.

What Indian Autos Blog left wanting:

  • Though the app already has wide list of database it still lacks some sub variants of the same model.
  • We would have also liked a page or an section where we can search or find the nearest place or a dealer to buy the oil of suggested match.
