Tyre Inflator

Indian roads are completely uncertain. You never know when a giant pothole will appear in the middle of a highway or how undulated and uneven they can be. All this pressure is put on the tyres, which absorb most of the impact so that the people inside don't experience it. However, this has an adverse effect on tyres, as the air pressure in them drops over time. Additionally, if you park your car in an open area where it is in direct contact with the sun, the car might lose some air after several hours because the temperature of the tyres rises.

To make sure that it doesn't disturb much of your time, purchase an tyre inflator, which cost Rs 1,500 to Rs 2,000, as is available on both online e-commerce platforms and on stores. With the help of it, you'll inflate the tyre quickly and also save yourself from potential tyre damage.

Dash Cam

These accessories' value has risen exponentially in the past few years, with some automakers adding them to their variants lists, such as Hyundai. It's happening because road accidents in India have skyrocketed. Plus, if an accident involves a two-wheeler, people usually put the blame on the owner of the car, as they think he/she must be driving recklessly. Also, during third-party insurance claims, dash cams really help, as you have real-time evidence to present and make things clear once and for all. Now, you can expect how useful this feature really is, so do make sure to purchase it soon. It costs somewhere around Rs 2,000 to Rs 3,000.

Sun-Shades

Summers in India have to be the most challenging times because the temperature moves past 48 degrees sometimes, and despite all this, people continue to work and reach their office, beating the heat as well as traffic. The AC definitely takes the heavy load during this period, but the sunshine coming inside the cabin makes it hard for the AC, and it has to overwork. Now, sunshades do really help, as they block out the heating rays, plus they also help the AC to keep it cool inside. Now, do note that in several states, there is a fine on even the most knitted sunshades, so do check whether your state allows you to keep them on the two side glasses.

Dustbin

This is the most overlooked accessory of all time. People don't think about it, as they look at it as an avoidable expense, but we all know that there is always something edible placed in our cars, like chocolates, chips, candies, and soda bottles. Now, after consuming them, Indians usually throw them out or keep them somewhere in the glove box and forget that it ever existed. Now, if you have a small dustbin in your vehicle, then the dirtiness of your car will be removed by 99%. Because that bin will be the go-to place to keep such edible items or things which aren't used, plus after reaching the destination, you can empty it.

Extra Charging Cables

Now, that most people don't carry chargers with themselves, as the smartphone's battery performance has significantly improved and most of the new cars are coming with wireless chargers, still, the owners should get extra pairs of charging wires. As it might help the co-passengers, and also you can charge some other devices like iPads, camera batteries, and wireless earphones with that. Now, almost every car comes with a Type-C socket available at both front and rear passengers, so having extra cables has become a necessary thing.
