Should the iconic Maruti Omni Ambulance be kept in automotive museums?
For more than three decades, the Maruti Omni, including its ambulance variant, is a part of Indian automotive culture. It stopped production in 2019 as new safety and emission norms were announced. Having played such a major role in India's transportation and healthcare history, there is a debate going on as to whether it should find a place in automotive museums. Some say it was a unique period in Indian automotive design and social history, others that it's too mundane to be museum worthy. The broader questions of what we choose to preserve of our automotive past, and what value we place on vehicles that were not beautiful but had use value are also touched upon.
Yeah, hell yeah, it should be in museums! It’s as much a part of Indian culture as chai and cricket. It’s not a car, it’s a piece of our history. The future generations must see the real jugaad.
