I dont see any advantage other than just labeling it as world cheapest car.. If u really see the specification, its max speed is 50 KMPH which is not acceptable in todays condition and going forward, traffic scenarios will be worst and we have to keep speed limits on our freeways and city roads to keep the traffic moving, in that scenario this car will be a waste...Apart from that the overall design is worst compared to Tata Nano (Agreed the fact that TATA has capital in hand with already built in infrastructure whicch give them chance to build the component cheaper compared to TARA), bu the from customer point of view why i should buy a car which is bad in performance and also looks just coz i get lil money advatage (The money advantage coz the per KM cost for this is 40 paisa compared to 2.5 Rs in case of Tata Nano). So the only advabtage with this car is cost per KM which is not sufficient to compete with TATA Nano...

Well. Someone ventured to make it. Thats what we need to appreciate. May be they will improve the performnace once the market picks up. If the Govt withdraws subsidy on petrol & Diesel,they will be too expensive and then people will have no option but to look at vehicls which do not run on fossil fuels.

Fine, who asked you to buy this car? People who are not able to look beyond themselves think only about their comforts. They turn a blind eye about the environment they are polluting and living. Agreed that this car has limitations but then, the manufacturer never claims otherwise! He has specific cross section of interested buyers. Certainly you do not fit into this catefgory. You have never considered the advantages which overweigh the short comings of those city dwellers, who would love to drive small distances within the city boundaries, in a car which is noiseless (relatively), does not pollute, has least day-to-day problems.
