    he just got a NANO in the lucky draw and he calls it a moment of pride, what if he gets a bently ? Wink lol

    sorry ram, but for many in this country would be moment of pride for owning one nano for them, man quite much families who would be owning first vehicles(say two or four)which does makes them feel this.
    im not denying that dude, all i want to say is if this guy gets a bentley in a draw, how would he express it

    Rightly said abhinav.
    Tata has achieved the aim for which they made the nano.
    I'm sure many people who had 2wheelers, they will now upgrade to the nano, Not only 2wheeler owners actually but many people who already have a luxry car are buying nano as their 2nd one.

    what is to look for now is the durability and practicality of nano on road, all said and hyped is done now, its time for some feedbacks to hear from people who gets their nano booked on first phase, lets wait to see how does the car response now.

    But I have doubt regarding this whole lottery system. Why was it started? Is it only because of lack of production capacities in existing plants, or something else along with that?

    well may be cause TATA wanted to create that all big hype for world's dream car becoming true, second finance would be gathered in a bit easy way and third yes cause of the lesser manufacturing capacity till their new sanand factory gets commencing.

    Exactly.
    Now we will have to see that much practical nano is on the roads.

    May be an innovative way of handling big volumes. By this time they would have done the needed number of cars ready, or in at least few months they'll deliver cars to lottery winners.

    I don't think TD vehicles are available as of yet. But when it is available, I will be the first one on the driver's seat. And according to a report by ACI, Nano has got good crash test results and is confident of a 4-star Euro NCAP rating. Now we all know that this car is safe.

    Yeah you are right. Nano has been tested at MIRA test facility and it passed frontal crash tests. Here is a video of the same.

    Mind you that European version has been tested which comes with safety features such as Airbags, Not the Indian one.
    About the build quality of car i feel it to be OK-OK.
    Also these crash tests are performed at such a speed where the driver as well as occupants can survive.

    yeah vibs, the one that has been tested is euro nano which has better built quality and safety features as standard and not our indian version which is very different to the euro nano.

    Tata Nano now launched! - Page 11 Ashok-raghunath-vichare-of-mumbai-first-customer-in-india-of-tata-nano-receiving-the-key-to-his-car-the-tata-nano-lx-from-450x298



    Tata Motors delivered the first Nano in the country at a ceremony held at company’s dealership, Concorde Motors in Mumbai.

    Mr. Ashok Raghunath Vichare of Mumbai has become the first customer in India of the Tata Nano. The keys of a gleaming new Lunar Silver Nano LX were handed over to Mr. Vichare by none other than Chairman of Tata Sons and Tata Motors, Mr Ratan N Tata.



    Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Tata said


    “I hope the Tata Nano will bring motoring pleasure to those who will be buying their first car as also those who currently own cars but want a modern, contemporary, emission-friendly city car.”

    Along with Mr. Vichare, two other customers, Mr. Ashish Balakrishnan (Tata Nano LX – Sunshine Yellow) and Kores India Limited (Tata Nano LX – Lunar Silver), also received their cars today.

    As planned, Tata Motors has commenced deliveries of the Tata Nano this month to different towns and cities of the country. Despatches to dealerships have begun from the Pantnagar plant, where the car is being produced, in accordance with schedules informed to customers.

    I think that's the reason, the impact was less. If it didn't fly, the impact would be worser.
