This museum has been described as ‘the world’s finest Mini Car Museum’ and our aim is to make this description a true one at all times. It is a place where the scale models assume its rithtful position as the premier exhibit.
Nor is this just an historical museum. The Auto World is an educational foundation whose mission is to teach the science, technology, and mathematics on which automobile is founded as well as its early history. And strictly speaking, we aren't historians. We are experimental entrepreneurs’ – we study history by repeating it. We are the first in India. We do so for three reasons: (1) It gives us a unique and in-depth understanding of the transportation history, (2) the young people for whom we have built this museum would rather participate and read about the history of transportation, and (3) it's an incredible amount of learning and fun.
Auto World is India’s unique collection of authentic scale model cars. The Collection has authentic replicas spanning over 600 years of transportation history, with special emphasis on Cars. Auto World is a premier collection of authentic scale models founded by Janardhan Nanjundan.

Hall of Fame
The Motor car owes its existence to the hard work and dedication of many people.
Engineers and businessmen usually get the plaudits for the birth of the Automobile industry; but without scientists’, philanthropists and good number of other people, things could be very different.
In this hall we will tell some the stories of people who have contributed to the designs, technological advances and business practices that have allowed the Motor car to become practical, affordable and eventually to flourish. We'll also introduce you some of the less well known names, that may have been forgotten over the years, but without whom many of the things we now take for granted might not be around at all.
