Title: drivable low-cost tin can unveiled
Post by: rapzeh on Jan 10, 2008, 7:47 AM
(from India) Tata Nano
more info on Yahoo News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080110/ap_on_bi_ge/india_ultracheap_car) and Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tata_Nano)
a "car" for only $2500 , I'd rather drive one of these (even more expensive!) "minicars" , you don't even need to be 18 or have a drivers license here in Italy. look!

But I guess it will sell a lot in India , maybe it will become the next WV Beetle or Fiat 500
I really want to see a crash test , BTW :D

What is the code name, the UnSmartcar?  That thing looks like it'll be worse in a crash than a geo Metro Hatchback..

Give it its due, it's really small and very very cheap... I quite like the idea of it, even though it looks a lot like a Mitsubishi i

WEll yeah a cheap car is good where money is very, very scarce.  So I can see the upside..

However on a slightly humerous note..did you see the name of the car?  It has a slang interpretation if you read it carefully..Tata?
