The coronavirus rages on and automakers in the country are now entering the age of digitization. Every automaker in the country is turning to this form of sales and service. Though the lockdown is being lifted in parts, the COVID-19 pandemic is showing no signs of abating and the new norms of social distancing is what are likely to keep buyers away from showrooms.

While factories get into production mode on skeletal staff with a host of safety measured in place, buyers visiting showrooms in the same numbers as was seen in the past is a distant dream. It is to stir up some sales that most automotive brands are resorting to online sales, offering buyers the option to book test rides, make booking and complete all necessary paperwork via the online portal with doorstep delivery promised without any visit to showrooms.
