Fancy a stealthy car? Here are the most affordable cars with black edition

While flashy colors dominate the market, there is always a niche of buyers who have been entranced by the classic appeal of all-black cars. The dark colours bring with it a premium, understated elegance that many enthusiasts appreciate. Quite a few automakers have therefore come up with special black editions, featuring an all-black exterior and matching dark-themed interiors. Should you be in the market for an elegant and classy ride but on a budget, here's a handful of the most budget-friendly black edition cars available in the Indian market.
