Today’s women are confident and independent. They are not only competing with men in profession but also taking up similar hobbies. It is interesting to know that the Porsche Boxster which is tagged and marketed as ‘male super car’ has more number of women owners than men. In 1955, the
luxury car manufacturer Daimler was the first to customize a car for women. Named as ‘104 Ladies Model’, the car was enhanced with cosmetic pack, fitted luggage, and umbrella. This was later followed by another car brand Dodge who introduced ‘La Femme’, a pink car with cosmetic cabinets built into the seats.
