The correct answer is Seeing a family of four on a scooter.
When the Nano was launched in New Delhi in January this year, Ratan Tata said, "I observed families riding on two-wheelers -- the father driving the scooter, his young kid standing in front of him, his wife seated behind him holding a little baby. It led me to wonder whether one could conceive of a safe, affordable, all-weather form of transport for such a family. Today, we indeed have a People's Car, which is affordable and yet built to meet safety requirements and emission norms."
