As evident from the study the Indian market is predominantly focused on two wheelers hence reviews of bikes and the biking category tops 4 wheeler brands significantly. Increasingly auto brands are also embracing newer platforms like Instagram, Snapchat and Periscope to advertise and capture the attention of potential buyers. In coming days we will see this trend rising as smartphones, cheaper data plans and better video content becomes more prevalent online."
