Exterior Very cute looking elegant body, sun shine yellow colour. Many times on road I have observed people looking very interested in the car. The most admiring are the young and small children, I was surprised one day while driving on the road when one child pointed to my Nano and was telling his parents to buy this car.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Very spacious, inside the car, Quite comfortable for driver, nice leg room as I am quite tall(5 ft 11 inches). Enough space for 4 adults including driver. At the back side 3 children sit. AC is quite effective and in winter the heater keeps the interior warm.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Initial pick up is very good, Very responsive to slight pressure on the accelerator pedal, zips ahead over taking other cars on the road. Races at 40 kmph even in 2nd gear.
Ride Quality & Handling Quite good riding quality and easy to handle and beat the city traffic. East to park in crowded city roads and parking places.
Final Words After 10 months of continuous driving in Bangalore city, one day my Tata Nano front right side wheel axle and tie rod broke down while I was driving back home and I had a small head injury and nervous shock. The car had to be towed to the Body repair workshop. It cost totally RS 58, 870/ for the repair. I got Rs 40,000/ from Tata Insurance and I had spend Rs 18,000/.
Areas of improvement The wheel axles, bearings, tie rods and connecting rods may be made very strong to avoid on the road break downs.
Good mileage, Good pick up and Response, Very cute lookingWeak wheel axle, weak Tie Rods and weak connecting Rods
