6 Smart DIY Car Care Hacks by Turtle Wax for Every Indian Car Owner This Festive Season

BusinessWire India
New Delhi [India], September 17: As vehicle ownership expands, boosted by the festive season sales & the GST overhaul, car owners want the best upkeep and care solutions to maintain the appearance, hygiene and safety of their car. As such, India's car care products market has been rising steadily, valued at approximately USD 425 million in 2024 and expected to reach USD 554 million by 2033, growing at a 3% CAGR (IMARC Group). With growing awareness & passion for DIY, the need for high-performance, reliable & convenient use-at-home car care products is gaining popularity.
Turtle Wax, a global leader in car care with more than 75 years of expertise, has innovated and evolved its range to suit Indian driving conditions, from high dust and pollution levels to extreme weather shifts. The brand offers high-quality yet easy-to-use, effective solutions across categories, enabling car owners to bring showroom-like shine and protection to their vehicles without stepping out of their homes.
As India's car care habits evolve, several consumer shifts are reshaping the market
-Premiumization of aftercare: Consumers are looking for ceramic and graphene-powered protection without needing a specialist
-DIY momentum rising: With over 5 million new vehicles and 6 million used vehicles sold annually, car owners are keen to protect their investments between professional services
-Changing weather + urban challenges: Dust, pollution, and erratic seasons make reliable, easy-to-use car care solutions essential--not just a luxury
-Growing focus on interior & trim care: Modern cars in India have more plastic/fibre trims that fade quickly, driving demand for specialised solutions like trim restorers. Car interior care ensures health, comfort, hygiene, safety, and maintains vehicle value
-Premium detailing surge: With more consumers opting for Paint Protection Film (PPF), aftercare products like spray ceramic coatings and ceramic detailers are becoming essential.
