I don't want iPod Nano, but Tata Nano!

It's mesmerizing, after months of rumors and tantalizing leaks, Tata Motors has finally unveiled the Tata Nano on January 11, 2008 at the Autoexpo. In India, we call it 'The People's Car.' In everyone's view Ratan Tata and the People's car are legendary!

Its priced at just Rs. 1,00,000! That is only around $2,500!

As expected, the Tata car will change the face of not only the Indian car market, but the global auto industry. It's a four door, five seat vehicle, powered by a 30 HP Bosch 624 cc four stroke engine mounted out back and mated to a CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission).

This makes the Nano the first time a 2-cylinder gasoline engine will be used in a car with a single balancer shaft. The Nano's also expected to get 54 US miles per gallon.

Here's the man behing the People's Car, Ratan Tata. Actually, he is above all expectations and ahead of Tata Nano popularity, rather than behind! "This is the biggest thing I've ever done", Ratan Tata expressed, a feeling from bottom of his heart.


However, you can go behind the scenes and know what made Tata Nano a success: "The making of Tata Nano.htm"
