    yeah around what zinam said CC, but i am sure after certain hype and demand in market, once sanand factory starts production, tata would relaunch its refreshed version as it has its history of doin so,launch one model,create hype and then relaunch its better,rectified model.

    Thanks zinam and vijay. Yeah vijay, i agree with you. As this is the usual practice of Tata to do R&D with its customers and launch new models based on it from time to time.

    Yeah me too vijay. I'm more inclined towards the Europa. Waiting for the Europa with a decent sized diesel engine. Hope Tata brings it.

    nano diesel with a 685 cc 2 cylinder crdi engine prototypes are ready and trial runs will begin in april.
    Crdi kit is manufactured here and supplied by bosch for what is touted as the world's smallest crdi diesel engine.
    this is already undergoing CC as i mentioned few days back and you might see this model being tested on roads in south and maharashtra, so keep eyes wide open.

    The interior looks pretty decent for the price. I guess the quality is decent too.

    @vibhor, Is it available for TD now? As I've read that Nanos will be available in showrooms for display only by April first week. So only after that, we could get TD of it.

    Yes cc you have heard right, its not available for TD for public but from my above post i meant that if officialy(or through anyone known in tata) has test driven it then share here because i visited many other sites and they have their own nano TD so i thought TAI too should have one. :)

    That's hardly around 80000 more than the base Nano variant, and that too it is imported in Europe. So here it may cost less. I feel it is worth the price.

    Nano effect? Maruti 800, Omni get ready to retire


    New
    Delhi: Maruti 800 - the small car that revolutionised personal
    transport in modern India - will take a bow starting next year and be
    phased out by 2016, when the country is expected to embrace new
    emission norms, Maruti Suzuki India said on Wednesday.

    Along
    with the M800, MSI will also be phasing out its second oldest model,
    the utility van Omni. In the initial phase, the two models will be done
    away with in 11 cities from next year, where the Bharat Stage-IV
    emission norms (which is equivalent to Euro-IV norms) will become
    applicable.

    "Once Euro-IV emission norms is applied across the
    country, which is likely to happen around 2015-16, then M800 and Omni
    may not be a saleable product. We will have to eventually phase (them)
    out then," MSI Chairman R C Bhargava told PTI.

    The roof line seems as high as the the auto beside it. What about the width? Is it as wide as an auto..?

    Nano effect? No it is the pollution effect, i guess.
