The $2500 Car Unveiled

[luv_mist]

Whoa is all I'm saying. I wonder how solid the car is and how well it handles. This definitely will help to change some of the car making over here.

2 cylinder, 33 horsepower, max speed of 60 mph. That would work real well on the highway.

I'm not sure this will revolutionize car making in the states. This barely qualifies as a car IMO.

Re: The $2500 Car Unveiled

How do you feel it would change car making here? Kind of a step back for here in the states. Cars like that are perfect for those places where space is tight and most everyone has the same size car.

Now a days, cars that do not have enough get up and go are more of a traffic hazard than anything else.


"The car has seat belts, but no air bags. The Nano is about 10 feet long, 5 feet wide. The 2-cylinder petrol engine delivers 33 horsepower and a top speed of just over 60 mph."

My ATV does better than this!

Re: The $2500 Car Unveiled

I think it's a great idea. 50 mpg. Top speed on the highways is only supposed to be 70 (anyone remember when top speed was 55, and it wasn't that long ago).

It should at least be an option. Hell, if you're gonna sit in hours of traffic in Los Angeles travelling along at 15 mph, you might as well be in one of these.

Jim, you are bucking the trend! At your stage in life you should be in the Caddy sporting some white patent leather shoes. Whats the deal?

That thing looks like the car Clouseau drove at the beginning of the new Pink Panther movie.

I don't think any new car should be made without airbags, price be damned.

I could see a lot of parents buying this for their kid's first car.

I don't really see this being anything more than a cheap *** car in India. It has zero appeal here, and it will sell well enough in India to really make them not care about other markets.

I don't think that would even be street legal outside of Georgia and Arizona and their golf carts.
