However, with "strong seats" listed as one of the car's safety features, it's unlikely that the Nano would pass safety tests in more developed regions.

and outputs about 30 horsepower.

WOW I totally wanna see that in a crash test...And a whopping 30 horses might as well push it...

What next take a 6.5 lawnmower engine make it legal on the road and sell it for a hundred bucks!!

This only adds empahsis to the phrase..."Jap Scrap"

looks good. It will be a great car to have for downtown toronto. I wish we could get cars that are ok to drive on the streets, but banned on highways.

You realize that the Tata is made in India?

[NefCanuck]

Saw this and could only go Semi Truck + Tata = Flat Tata...

and I dunno about you but I don't like flat Tata's esp. when I'm part of them :D :ph34r:

well on the news this morning Tata said that their higher trimed version will offer airbags, air conditioning, alloys, front and optional rear foglights, and a radio with the option of CD or Cassette. they said with those options it would add about $1500 or more to the sticker.

So, we'll be able to go look at some Tata's and not pay for beer?

[snorcus]

Great Idea and it looks like the aveo by chevy. Its funny when you see a kid in his Aveo with rice all over it pull beside the focus. For the price you cant beat the tata though

Well if you really wanted too, you could buy two of them, and then you'd have your own set of tatas to touch and feel and do what ever you want to them lol... :lol:

BOOSTED TATA.................... SO FUNNY

[Flofocus]

i just wanted to write the word tata,

carry on.

[meford4u]

Boosted TATA=Bigger TATAS............me like the real TATAS

[mo_focus]

no wonder the guy decided to make the car in Inida. If he ever came to NA they would bug the s*** out of him with that last name :)

[mister_bin]

HAHAHA Look how tall the shifter is... its huge...

I say we drop 6 Kicker 04S18XD2 throw 5k watts to each of them sit back and watch the car diss assemble itself..

I gotta admit that car would be fun to drive.. just tear the ever loving s*** out of it...

30hp isnt fun on a motorcycle i dont see how it would be fun in a car

i think you just pictured riding a tata and immediately thought it was fun based on the name :D

[j3rt]

No wonder it's $2500, based on the pictures, drivers side doors are optional.
Nice beefy tow hook on it though, will come in handy when pulling it out of ditches after a gust of wind.

[ZX3_2NV]

not bad for the price and not sure where u see doors optional the base model has black plastic bumper small steel rims, no radio u have i believ 2 gauges 1 speed and 2 gas

i looked into them quickly we won't see them in canada and us has a slight chance
