Tata Nano - Honda Pilot

A dozen of these or a honda pilot

After months of rumors and tantalizing leaks -- and as we first told you earlier this week -- Indian automaker Tata Motors has finally unveiled the Tata Nano -- its already legendary $2,500 (1-lakh)car. As expected, the car that Tata claims will change the face of not only the Indian car market, but the global auto industry will be a four door, five seat hatch, powered by a 30 HP Bosch 624 cc four stroke engine mounted out back and mated to a CVT. That 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.

Reminds me of the Citroen 2CV

I suspect that Apple's lawyers will be contacting TATA over their use of the word Nano

And here I was expecting the thread to be about rami's new mp3 player to replace his nano.

Its a huge Indian conglomerate and not to be laughed at. They are highly diverse. Land Rover and Jag are their next purchases

Tata is the last name of the family who founded the company

try visiting china or india.

count how many motorcycles or mopeds you see with 3 or more people on them (no sidecar). it's a viable solution, but given the population, the potential congestion would be 10 fold.

I don't know for sure from the picture, but it looks kinda like the Japanese news anchor from the movie Cars. Yes, I'm a dad. I've seen it enough for everyone in this forum.

So true, I haven't seen a non-animated movie in over 5 years and I've seen Toy Story 2 about 15 billion times.

Wow. That really was my first post here. I guess I've been a lurker for a while now, huh?

Here I am. Love me. (Cars quote...I'm not that self-absorbed)
