Y! launches India maps with new features: Landmark based driving, can calculate auto rickshaw fares too!

Yahoo India heats up the competition with the latest version of Y! maps.
Apart from the regular map feature, the product has been launched with few nifty features:

• Landmarks based directions, covering all of India.
• Auto richskaw fares
• Directions in SMS/Text

Overall, the map is impressive and very much tuned to the Indian consumers and am sure will give a good competition to MapMyIndia as well as RouteGuru.

Test drive the map and do share your comments.
