New Delhi: This is a fascinating story of a Maruti Suzuki dealership owner in Odisha who boasts of a collection of exotic cars and superbikes. Meet Devjyoti, who has amassed an impressive collection of 45 exotic cars and 9 superbikes in the past 35 years.
The range of these cars and bikes includes classic as well as contemporary. Devjyoti’s collection is the testament of the man’s passion and love for the wonderful machines on wheels.
Showcasing a wide range of vehicles, his garage has added cars and bikes over the years.
Devjyoti’s journey in the automotive industry began in 1996 when he opened a TVS showroom in Bhubaneswar, Odisha followed by a dealership for American manufacturer Opel in 1999. After that, he collaborated with Maruti Suzuki and established “Jyote Motors” showrooms.
Presently, he is operating nine Maruti Suzuki dealerships across the state. Not only that, he also owns the dealership of Suzuki superbikes called “The Big Bike Hub.”
His passion for automobiles is visible in his vast collection which includes Maruti Suzuki 800 and Lamborghini. Some of the outstanding cars in his garage include the Lamborghini Urus, a MINI Cooper, Bentley Flying Spur, Audi A8 L, Audi Q8, Audi A7, Ford Mustang, Mahindra Thar, Aston Martin Vantage, Aston Martin DB11, Jeep Wrangler, and Jeep Grand Cherokee.
These cars include sedans, hatchback, supercars, and the renowned off-roaders from American brands.
An off-roader is a vehicle designed to be driven off public roads, especially on rough terrain, or someone who drives such a vehicle.
Each car holds a special place in his heart, with stories behind their acquisition. For instance, he bought the iconic Maruti Suzuki 800 in 1998, traveling all the way to Kolkata to bring it home. He got his hands on the Lamborghini Urus, one of the fastest-selling Lamborghinis in India, soon after its launch.
The Audi A8 L, Q8, and A7 exude luxury and class. The Ford Mustang takes one to an exciting driving experience.
Talking about bikes, Devjyoti runs a biking club and advocates the significance of driving and riding with full safety and precautions.
