I was surprised that Tara Tiny has come to rival the Tata Nano. Tiny is priced at Rs 99,999. It is just Re One less than the Nano showroom price. I think it is hilarious. We may soon just have to go to the supermarket to buy cars, instead of showrooms! Get me some bhindi and cauliflower and a Nano/Tiny on the way back!!!
I think Tara would have earned some respectability if it had quoted the same price as the Tata Nano or added some extra technology to make it slightly more different than the Nano. It makes cars look so cheap that there is no difference between household groceries and cars. I believe that there should be some kind of understanding between the car manufacturers to quote such prices.
Anyway, I’d rather go for Tata that is established than for Tara who may just blink like a Tara for some time and vanish in the galaxy of cars!

I agree that such price wars are good in fast moving consumer goods and branded clothes. But in cars it is not acceptable.
Such prices will remove the seriousness from the object car which is an engineering wonder in itself.
The competition for the ultr- cheap car has grown so much that, car makers are loosing their standard.I feel the the price of the 'Tiny' is a little akward.It looks like 'Bata'(the shoe mart) prices. There should be competition but in a very healthy and decent way.
