This is indeed a good achievement by tata and his great commitment to the society. He kept his word and he really mean it. I think Ratan Tata's vision behind this is to really serve the middle class by giving this opportunity to make their dreams come true and make their lifes easy. I don't think every toms-dick and harry run after this car as it needs money to to maintain and drive the car. It is only a selected segment of people from middle class who really think of buying a car for their comfort, could be a used second hand one, but Tata gave them a brand new option. I think this will have a reverse impact in terms of mass thinking. As the middle class and the lower class take this pride to own a small car they soon will realise the importance of good infrastructure, good roads which will make their and their car's life more easy. So far, only the educated and the urban population have been raising concerns about our infrastructure; now India will have lagre population of vehicle owners and drivers who demand a good infrastructure to the government and the local rulers. If this car proved to be robust and fuel efficient, then surely will make a big difference to the lifes of rural and urban population, and also Nano Taxi is not a bad alternate to Indian traditional Auto Rickshas as they are closed (more safety to passengers) and more power more fuel efficient and for just Rs. 100,000.
