Tato Nano - Click above for high-res image gallery
The first customer to get a Tata Nano has taken delivery of the world's cheapest car today. Tata Motors delivered the car to a Mr. Ashok Raghunath Vichare of Mumbai who paid just 100,000 rupees ($2,053 U.S.) for the car. The Nano
went on sale earlier this year and has been a source of endless discussion since it was announced in early 2008. While incredibly cheap, other numbers for the tiny car are also impressive: the Automotive Research Association of India has rated the Nano at 56 miles-per-gallon U.S., and the car produces emissions of just 101 grams of CO
2 per km.
The Indian market is only the first step for the Nano - A Euro-spec model recently
passed European crash tests and the car is still scheduled to come to the U.S.
at some point in the not-too-distant future. Click on the gallery below or check out a video of the first Nano handover ceremony
after the jump.
