Tata Nano is America bound and how? Tata Motors is working on a Nano variant for the American market and is expected to be ready in about three years.

Ratan Tata, Chairman of Tata Motors claims that the America bound Nano will feature a bigger engine and will undergo additional crash tests to derive at a point blank answer to silence the skeptics about Nano’s safety.

Tata Motors is also concentrating on the developed markets apart from the American market to develop an electric version of the same.
Tata Motors now beaming with pride with the acquisition of Jaguar-Land Rover is looking to bring the luxury cars to the emerging Indian car market while marketing its cleaner electric cars like the Nano and Indica EV in developed markets like the US and Europe.

Tata Nano which was launched in the 9th edition of Delhi Auto Expo had to clash head on with issues such as land acquisition in Singur from where the initial production of the Nano was slated to happen and hence the first Nano was rolled out from the company’s Pune plant. Later the first batch of 100,000 cars had to be rolled out from the Sanand plant in Gujarat.

Tata Motors also unveiled the Nano Europa at the Geneva Motor Show 2009. The European version would provide high fuel efficiency and carbon dioxide emissions of less than 100 grams per kilometer and is rumored to cost about $6,000.
