Exterior Good job by the designers, though sometimes the pillar in front can pose a blind spot.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) A lot of space inside, love it!
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Performance has been remarkable, fuel economy I would not comment. I don't do long drives that often and usual reading perday for me is 10-15 km.
Ride Quality & Handling It may get a bit bouncy because of the short length, you just have to drive in speed limits.
Final Words An awesom vehicle for someone who rides in the city more than he rides on highways.
Areas of improvement POWER STEERING especially when you find that parking spot ;).
Okay so I have been riding it for more than a year now. Service can definitely improve especially from Rama Motors in Okhla. They scuk big time. I was shown a vehicle with lighter concsole and fully functional. They pushed me a vehicle without the working lighter and would not install it when I complained about the missing piece. Infact they did not have it in spare. They DID NOT HAVE IT FOT TWO MONTHS. Either Tata does not want to work with them or its just the way Rama Motors works. Nothing could get them to put that lighter since I really needed it for the phone charger I got one done privately.
SO after dong some 14000km on it, I love it. It still amazes me when i step out of the truck and see a small tiny car. That's how roomy it is inside. I am also a cyclist and often carry one or two cycle in the back. Riders with me were surprised as even a swift or a santro could not carry two adult cycles.
City riding is a breeze and it is more like a 600 cc bike with a roof and an excellent air conditioning. I agree with those posts that say it should not be marketed as a cheap car. but an inexpensive car. Yes people like to boast about the price of their cars but I am a contended kind of guy. I find other makers now bleeding the buyers since a car can be made this inexpensive!
I have done outstation rides on it. and it is recommended to stop for atleast half an hour after every 250 km due to the small engine. Well I ride not more than 2 hours continuous anyways.
As for speeds, i have touched 100kmph but do prefer to stay within speed limits and already want to ask regulators in the government why they have speed limits for cars when the speedometer can go up to 200+kmph. Such cars should be declared illegal. When 80kmph is speed limit on highway why do they make cars/trucks that can go beyond it??
As for mileage i know people getting upto 26kmpl but since I am usually in traffic for my 10 km commute I manage with 15-17kmpl with the AC on.
The height is a great bonus since you know the traffic ahead better than the low vehicles. Turning sharp I have not tried at high speeds but have made few tire screeches now and then.
The best thing I love about it is ground clearance. When safari and mahindras are slowly tredging the Gurgaon roads due to potholes, this baby is taking it all in and gobbling the road. I would love to see the faces of those drivers riding SUVs but the car being so manuevrable is seldom stuck in traffic, and ofcourse being a Nano it always gets a go ahead from those big trucks who oblige since it seems so tiny.
If a person knows how to be contended and car is just a item of commute and not a status symbol, this is the car for him. For those who are in the spiral of consumerism they can surely go for Fiat 500, Mini or even the VW beetle.

Exterior The looks are well designed and cute, sporty look.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Unbelieable space inside a small car. comfortable nice suspensions, road clearing, body graphic stickering, alloy wheels, glove boxes and reputed music system.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Wonderful, get mileage of around 20 in city drives adn 22.5 on long drives.
Ride Quality & Handling Very easy, light and enjoy in all types of roads.
Final Words proud to be a owner of the NANO It is definitely a boon for people who use a two wheeler and want to buy a four wheeler.
Areas of improvement If the vehicle has sprint pickup it would be great. It is comfortable and has the capacity to serve you to maximum. I have used it in long drives. Less than 24 hours driven more than 500 kms the special edition features like the glove boxes, alloy wheels, music system and body graphics are great. It has a powerful AC and heater.

Exterior
Exterior is good in tata nano xt twist version i have purpule edition and it looks eye catching car for every one. even sedan and royal car owners also discussed me when i was on wait on red lights on roads. every thing is nice and ok but its time of facelifted cars and please improve its face like it has no bonut so if you are trying to improve front face it will looks more attractive in future. headlights looks so big but unfortunately company also have to improve its brightness and quality even when i drive on metro city (delhi) i am not satisfied presently i have change my custum bulbs with extra kitt. wiper is so hard even in rainy season and its not suitable for such a big wind screen beacause two wipers are much better then a single. you cant see whole windscreen from corners in rainy seasons. it has defogger but unfortunately you will go to direct heaven because from out side wipers will unable to clean fully your screen iin heavy rain falls and after that when rain stops u cant remove fog from out side the wind screen because there is no any facility to overcome this issue in this car but this issue is only for mansons defoger works perfect in winter season .doors are noisy during open and clsoing it but it can be consider if you are go for a long drive. car roof is perfect airo dynamic structure. i completely agreed with those persons who uses nitrogen in place of normal air in tyres. if you are going for long drive so be maintain 28 psi on fron wheels and 30 psi on rear. ground clearance is so unxpected its 180 just like suv. but unfortunately wheel rims are so weak your oil chamber will safe on off roads but if you are runs on more then 40 km speed on off road you will lost yours wheel alignment. my right front rear wheels was completely break on 60 speed on a small creak on road so try to use alloys from neowheels website and tubeless tyres with mentioned nitrogen pressure. dont try to use any accessories on roof you will loose yours stability on road during highspeed on high ways.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
its a four person car but you can easily drive with five persons with out loose any comfort zone. seats are very comfortable even i am also drive this car non stop with out taking any single stopage on 350 km and total 720 km on 14.5 hours from indore to agra. power steering is very smooth and works without any issues. leg room space area is also so big for driver and passengers you can easily enter without any irritation beacause of its height. music system with bluetooth cpapbilty is good not execellent because of no LR out put for extra amp i am using impdence controller from rear speaker to suing amp and jbl woffer with company fitted music system. boot space area is only for two/three medium size bags only but its ok for me. no space for bottles and glass for passengers. .ac is execellent but after crossing 38 c in four passengers you will feel some hot even in highways. dashboard is completely redesgined no comment on it except it totally differ from old versions. milo meter with fuel guage, trip meter, distance to empty (DTE), AVG calcuator is so impressive feature even this features are not comes in many brands. colors and touching of seating and doors are very eye catching you cant say any thing wrong after sit inside the car but you can use seat cover in same colors and design for safty.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
engine performance is good but when you are on small hilly road you have off yours a.c. this car is not for high hilly areas like pachmadi but you can easily go forlong drive with out any issue. i am also drive this car indore to shimla, chamba, manali, via gwalior agra mathura and new delhi. on himachal pradesh engine struggle so much in comapre to other car like 800. but this car is works so impressive on offroads i am try this onfully farming land during traffic jam. gear box is only ok not so much smooth, fuel economy is good if you are normal driver if you want to run always above 45 in cities so you cant say any thing about avg. but in four persons in 65 km/hour nano gives me 26.5 without a.c and 23/24 with a.c. i have drive this car whole night without any struggling overall i am impressed if you consider some struggling of engine in 5 persons or hilly roads. and its top speed is 107 km/hour
Ride Quality & Handling
ride quality is so good nice gripping on roads and stability on high speed but you have close yours all windows on high speed. you will not tired during long drives or onoff roads. try to drive with only three persons this give you much better performance on city and highways
Final Words
try to improve its face please works to improve facelifted or on bonut, headlights is so weak even not satisfied on cities when you drive with other seadan or royal hatchbacks car like i10 etc. try to provide alloys or improve rim quality its so weak and cheak in quality. please improve yours service station managements. toing facility is fully paid when yours car will impact on roads. horn is also a part of improvement factor, gear shifting also be more smooth, music system sound quality can be improve try to contact other brands beacuse its a clarian. central locking and power window are also need to improve i am also change two times in 6 months. please provide accessories in tata showrooms beacuase it is so hard to search yours fav. accessories in workshops like allow wheels.

Exterior Does not have a great look but you can overlook the exteriors as it fits in a budget.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Decent for a budget car - has AC, front power windows, central locking, pretty spacious for a 6 footer.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Durability: Major parts like clutch, AC condensor assembly already failed in less than 5 year/40K usage. Warranty covers for 4 years. Both failure happened in the 5th year and had to shell out about 10K each for each of the parts. Durability of the car becomes a question mark.
Mileage: Gives about 10-12km in city condition with AC which is pathetic considering it's 624cc engine and entry level hach back.
Ride Quality & Handling Shock absorbers are horrible, feels like you are running on a horse. Response from TATA Motors was that you cannot expect comfort of Indica in a Nano! Agree but you expect Nano to give comfort of a car atleast
Final Words Limited number of Service Centers forces - the nearest service center Concorde Motors is 14 kms from my place. Concorde took 3 days to replace the AC assembly parts as they did not had the parts in stock. Service has deteriorated over the years and they can make you wait for an hour just to have someone attend to you
Areas of improvement Look into the durability aspect of the car. Quality is completely compromised to accomodate the budget. It does not work in the long run. Improve your service center in terms of count and quality of service.

Exterior: The exterior of TATA Nano looks good for a good city car like this. It may look "small" from exterior, but actually, it's interior cabin space is 21% bigger than that of Maruti 800, a fact that almost everyone knows. Although it's paint quality is acceptable, yet it's paint quality is better than most of TATA cars. The car has been built for city driving purposes and that's why it exhibits a small and cute exterior. Nano looks best in yellow colour. It has small tyres, and we we wold like bigger tyres, because they do not easily pass the big holes and/or a series of big speed-breakers. However, it's ground clearance is sufficient for normal city roads. It has good looking and stylish head-lamps and tail-lamps, and the top varient sports fog-lamps too. It's shape is, honestly speaking, aerodynamically designed, though it attains maximum speed of about 110 km/h.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): It's interior is, as stated above, more spacious than of Maruti 800, by 21%. No ABS or airbags, as expected at the price, but one may be shocked to find no glove-box there. Obviously it cannot take as much luggage or load as a SUV, but it can take luggage for a family of 4 persons quite easily. As of comfort, it has enogh cushion on every seat for a good non-aching journey. In the low-end model, no seat can be adjusted by anyway, by anyone, offering a big disappointment to us. High end version has HVAC(Heater Ventilator Air Conditioner), and power windows. Front can be adjusted in it.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox: Engine sounds like auto-rickshaw, and performance is saisfactory. The 600cc engine is good for a small,light-weight car like it. This engine provides good fuel efficiency, more than 18 km/l. Gear shift is also OK, though at low RPM, it gives up some times.
Ride Quality & Handling: Ride quality is good but suspension is not up to the mark. The car can also get struck at the road on a big path-hole, due to small tyres. Handling is OK and car is easily drivable in a busy city. However, gear-shift knob is a little bit small.
Final Words: Nano is a good small car targeted on costumers who want a car in a small budget.It is especially built for a small family car.
NANO IS A SMALL, FAMILY CAR, BUILT FOR GOOD CITY RIDES AND MANUOVERABILITY.
TATA NANO - SMALL NAME - BIG FAME -------- BEST SMALL FAMILY CAR TILL DATE
