Not OP, but there are not enough resources for all of North America, Europe, China and India to live the lifestyle of the average US person. So I guess they are hopeful that India won't reach that level of consumption.
Very wrong. I do hope they reach this level of consumption. But don't do it by relaying on cars as a primary means of transport. The car market should stay small even as the economy grows.
This can be achieved by systematically ban cars from cities. By investing far more into trains then into highways. By having good public transit even to remote places. And by encouraging small vehicles when necessary.
