So much has been said against the TATA Nano that I am sick in the stomach to talk about it, but so I must. As the case FOR it must be highlighted now more than ever. Driving around Pune on a Sunday evening is proof enough that India not only needs a small inexpensive 4 door car but craves for it. The hundreds of 4 to 5 member families moving around precariously about the city on two wheelers is to say the least a scary sight.
Many nay sayers say that the roads will get even more congested. Well if that will push our Government to get their act together and build better roads, ring roads and flyovers then so be it. Please remember we are a nation of over a billion so I think it is a little too late for "Congested". That we already are!
Almost every point stated by those who are against the Nano in fact is also a positive. They say it will add to the pollution. If it takes a certain number of two wheelers off the roads and emits the same levels of pollution as a two wheeler then I don't foresee any big difference.
Also it is said that it will not be very safe. Well TATA will be stupid to bring an unsafe car to the masses as it will not only not sell but TML will have to face the peoples ire which I am sure they don't want after all this hype. And anyways how safe is it to have a 2 kids on the petrol tank of a two wheeler?
I think it will be super fuel efficient for a car. Take up less room on the road than any other car presently sold in India and finally it will not be very fast. It will get you from point A to B and thats it. By not being very fast it solves three things. It becomes safer, more fuel efficient and cleaner to run.
What do you think?
