This car looks modified version of two seater smart car. I think I need to see this car in reality coz the tyres looks the size of a scooter tyres. I would like to see the response of the people in buying this small car. I hope it can go above 100km per hr.
the govenments(state) have to first come up with serious planning to accomodate the traffic…
@Kanak,
The response is really huge, I hope you saw the TC and new yesterday, its already overbooked like.
@Rajesh,
We cannot blame Tata if there is any congestion because of this car, its up to Govt to take necessary steps to avoid traffic blocks.
Wow! Tata is seriously on to something. Didn’t they jusy buy Jaguar and Land Rover from Ford too?
Tats have kept their promise against all odds.
This move is really interesting.
this is a great innovation to cheer. For me it looks like Daewoo Matiz, did any one remember matiz
It will be interesting to see the kind of response this car gets.And of course what it does to India’s traffic !
Looks like a not so expensive version of Smart ForTwo. Can’t believe that the price is so cheap!
Its a great achievement for Tata.
Pimp my ride!
One lakh Nano provide best value for money spend…i have also seen it in autoexpo its really a product to watch out for.
