Talk about being spot on in a survey sample size. For those that are unfamiliar with research and surveys, the sample size is basically a small segment of the total population that is hoped to be representative of the entire body. For example, Honda showcased the American spec Accord and the European version to apprx. 500 Indians (My guess) and asked them which version they liked better. Those 500 people were taken from different cities, backgrounds etc. The opinion of this small group was generalised to the rest of the Indian population.

Now Team-BHP surveys sure have become representative of developed buying patterns!! According to a recent Dupont survey reported in the CNN...the most popular car colour in the US is Silver. Followed by white. And then black.

As of right now, our survey is showing exactly the same results.

Heres the full CNN Article

I somehow fail to understand why is Black not good for the car??? Can somebody help.

Also my family insists on buying a black car than any other color.All of my friends cars too are black.
