India’s new car


[ Mumbai] India’s largest automaker Tata Motors came out with the world’s cheapest car about a week ago. The Tata Nano costs about $ 2,000, which enables more people in India to afford an automobile.

The Nano is not only the cheapest, but also the shortest four-passenger car on the market. It’s 122 inches long and has a simple design.

The increase in vehicles in India may pressure the government to build better roads. Although there were concerns about more pollution in India, the car could actually have a positive impact on the environment by replacing many motorbikes.

The car is predicted to be on Indian streets by July.
