Uno Minda Introduces Multi-Angle Dash Cameras for Indian Market

Uno Minda Ltd., a tier-1 automotive supplier, launched two dash camera models for the Indian aftermarket on October 29, 2025. The 3-Way Car Dash Cam DVR and 2-Way Car Dash Cam DVR feature multi-channel recording capabilities with resolutions up to 4K Ultra HD.

The 3-way model, priced at Rs. 14,999, records simultaneously from three angles: 4K or 2K front-facing, 1K in-cabin, and 1K rear-facing cameras. The 2-way version, available at Rs. 12,999, captures 4K front and 1K rear footage. Both models include WiFi connectivity for smartphone integration and support microSD storage up to 256GB.

The devices incorporate gravity sensors that automatically preserve footage during sudden impacts, along with loop recording functionality that overwrites older files when storage capacity is reached. The cameras feature 3.39-inch LCD displays and wide-angle lenses ranging from 120 to 160 degrees to reduce blind spots.

According to Karna Markan, Head of Sales & Distribution (Accessories) at Uno Minda Ltd., the products aim to address safety concerns on Indian roads where accidents frequently result from blind spots and limited visibility. The launch comes as dash cameras gain acceptance among Indian consumers seeking documentation capabilities for accident claims and personal security.

The Indian market for dash cameras has expanded as vehicle ownership increases and drivers become more aware of in-car safety technology. Industry data indicates growing consumer interest in features such as multi-angle recording, wireless connectivity, and automatic incident detection.
