At approximately US$2,000 (Rs.100,000), the Tata Nano is the world's cheapest car to date. This city car is manufactured by Tata Motors of India and aimed primarily for the Indian market (too bad for the US market). It was presented on January 10, 2008, at Pragati Maidan in New Delhi, India and will be available in on March 23, 2009 to the Indian consumers.
With a dimension of 122 in. X 59.1 in. X 63 in. (LxWxH), it's amazing that this car has a capacity of four passengers and have four doors.
The prefix "nano-" derives from the Greek root 'nanos', meaning dwarf. "Nano" also means "small" in Gujarati, the native language of the Tata family, founders of the Tata Group.
