Cheapest car on Earth made by Tata motors - The Nano

The $2,500 car or call it TATA Nano-Rs 1 Lac car is scheduled for introduction by the Indian company Tata, swims against the current, with a rear-mounted engine, a trunk that fits little more than a briefcase, and plastics and adhesives replacing metal and bolts in certain nooks. The handful of people who have seen the car describe a tiny, charming, four-door, five-seat hatchback shaped like a jellybean, tiny in the front and broad in the back, the better to reduce wind resistance and permit a cheaper engine. The model appearing for introductioon has no radio, no power steering, no power windows, no air conditioning, and one windshield wiper instead of two. The car lacks a tachometer and uses an analog rather than digital speedometer. The car is light weight and is made environmentally friendly.

The best part of all this is that the company assures 20kmpl mileage and it meets all modern crash norms and EuroIV emission norms too...
most car companies said making a car this cheap with safety and emission norms wasnt possible..but tata built it... suddenly im proud to be an Indian all over again... and best word i liked were by Ratan Tata...after launching the car..he said..."A promise is a promise"

and hey..good reporting the odd facts Julie....
