Check out these innovative cars!

Tata Nano

March 7, 2008

The Rs-1 lakh, Tata Nano stole the hearts of the world at Geneva. Tata officials were showered with compliments from global head honchos.

When Tata Motors unveiled the Indica ten years ago at the Geneva Motor Show, not many people were interested in the car. But today people thronged the Tata stall to take a peek at world's cheapest car. Tata Motors also unveiled three other vehicles: the new generation Indica, the new Safari Dicor 2.2 VTT and the Xenon.

The Nano will first be launched in India later in 2008. The new generation Indica will be launched in the latter part of 2008 in international markets. The Safari Dicor 2.2 VTT and the Xenon have just been introduced in select markets.

Tata Motors, India's largest automobile maker, is looking at developing hybrid vehicles that run on clean fuels, but does not expect itself to be a major player in the hybrid technology space. Tata Motors is also considering the possibility of global licensing of the production of Nano.
