Nano may arrive at your doorstep soon
By admin | January 20, 2008
If you could not make it to the 9th auto expo here and missed the opportunity to see the cheapest car in the world, take heart as the Nano will soon travel to your state, courtesy Tata Motors.
So no matter if it’s Manipur in the east or Gujarat in the west, Kashmir in the north and Tamil Nadu in the south, the small wonder will soon be among the people it has been made for ~ the common man. Tata plans to showcase the Nano in special displays of the car across the country.
It will also clear the ‘myths’ about safety and environment issues related to it and promote it. Tata Motors plans to complete the display of the car in different parts of the country before it hits the market later this year probably in October. Tata Motors has already started its initiative to receive people’s feedback on the car and has engaged a private firm to collect response from the general public at Auto-Expo 2008, which will be utilised for incorporation of new features and improvement of existing ones at the same price.
According to company officials at Tata Motors, security agencies and Society of Indian Automobile Makers, the stall where Nano cars were on display at the auto expo was visited by over one lakh visitors every day during the seven-day international event. “Tata Motors products have always been appreciated by the general public at various forums. In past auto expos, we have been witnessing more footfall as compared to other auto players. However, this year, as the Nano was on display, it has broken all previous records. With this overwhelming response, we contemplate to display it in various cities all across the country,” said Mr Debasis Ray of Tata Motors. Some changes might be made in the existing features of the Nano. However, those changes will be very minor as the Tata Motors has to present the car within one lakh price. “ We have engaged a private firm to get public response and suggestions on improvement of the product. Later, they will be analysed. May be a few of them are incorporated in it. Most probably the Nano will have more colours that we have displayed here,” said Mr Ray. However, those who wish to book the car in advance will have to wait for some time.
