Tata Nano the world famous car, which was marred by controversies in its production plant is already being produced in Tata's Pantnagar plant which is a manufacturing facility primarily for the Tata Ace. Becasue of this, Tata is only able to churn out 3000 units approximately in a month which is low compared to the demand of the vehicle which has already had in excess of 2lac bookings. This is the reason you see this car in such low numbers. Well I am not really proud of telling you this because if you did not even know this, this website really isn't for you. You can stick to simpler news sites. Anyway, what is important now is that the Sanand plant in Gujarat which was being made to finally manufacture only Nano's is almost online and could start final production as early as January 2010. The final capacity will be as much as 10000 cars a month which is a lot and will help Tata give the Nano to its early 2lac owners in less than two years. Expect to see a lot of them on the roads from the start of 2010. The next wave starts then and you will see a lot of them selling on heavy premium in 2nd hand market. Also expect a lot of aftermarket accessories. Carnation Auto run by Jagdish Khattar has already tied up with Dilip Chabria to modify the stock Nano into what they call the 'Hot Nano' which will come with new bumpers and exterior styling to distinguish it from the flock of regular ones. There are changes to the interiors though nothing will be modded in the little 2 cylinder mill of this car. Again, if you don't know who these people are, daily news sites is where you should go. So yes, since this is a mass market car, a lot of possibilites exist. Enjoy the show. The Nano with its existing 3000 per month capacity has almost unseated the Maruti 800 but as I said before, this is only because of the limited options Tata has for now. They will be all around very soon. The indian automobile market will triple in size in the next decade from its existing 1.5 million capacity and it sure is an exciting place to be. I am talking about our country. The Photoshoppers are already going crazy. One dude even made this Nano Abarth on the PC (now you better know what is Abarth). There is little doubt that there will be one made one day. When, we don't really know but it sure will be an exciting car to have. It already looks so amazing and it is based on the long wheelbase Nano Europa which is rumored to have a 3cylinder petrol engine and all the safety it can ever have or will need.

The best and the worst performers in Indian car market
According to a poll by probably TOI, here is the list of the 6 best performing cars in terms of sales of course. The reasons for them to be the best performers can be many, but they sure fly off the showroom shelves really fast. According to the report, the indian car market churns about 400 different models and variants from 20 manufacturers. These 6 best selling cars make about 63% of total sales in India, which I think Forum Link...
First and foremost, i really appreciate the efforts taken by the developers and hats off for the concept.
Can we have one more forum totally dedicated for bikes as well? i am sure the forum would be useful for bike lovers(like me) and BHP-GURU would become most preferred site for them..
