The much awaited Tata small car, which is giving sleepless nights to its rivals, was finally unveiled at the Auto Expo 2008. The small car, which is priced at Rs100, 000 (2,500 dollars), has been named Nano. According to the Tata Motors, the Nano will hit the Indian roads later this year. Ever since the Tatas announced their intention of developing the 1 lakh car (touted as people’s car), the auto industry experts have been raising doubts over the price, features, safety and specifications of Tata Nano. Have a look at specifications and other aspects of the Tata Nano, the four door mini-hatchback.

Looks & Dimensions of Nano: Keeping in mind the young age group, the Tata Motors has strived well to give the Nano a contemporary and stylish look. The snub-nosed small car derives inspiration from Fiat 500 and Nissan Micra. As far as dimensions of the car are concerned, Nano is 3.1 metres (10.23 feet) long, 1.5 metres wide and 1.6 metres high and can accommodate four to five people.

Engine: The small car sports a two cylinder 623 cc, 33 horsepower rear mounted multi-point fuel injection (MPFi) petrol engine. Tata claims that the car can touch the top speed of 105 kms.

Fuel Efficiency: Engineers at Tata Motors have designed an efficient engine that can run 20 Kms on every litre of petrol.
Pollution: Against the criticism and concerns of the environmentalists, Nano surpasses Indian regulatory requirements and Euro IV emission norms. In fact, Tata claims that the small car is less polluting than most of the bikes on Indian roads.
Safety: Tata says that they have tested the small car extensively for front, rear and side collisions and come out with a product that exceeds current regulatory requirements. The safety features of the Nano include a strong passenger compartment, intrusion resistant doors, seat belts, sturdy seats and anchorage.
Price: The base model of the car will sport a price tag of Rs 100,000 (2,500 dollars) which excludes taxes and transport costs. The high end/deluxe models will include air-conditioning and other features to be incorporated based on suggestions of the common people.

Toyota Corolla

2009 Toyota Corolla

While the larger Camry is the most popular car in America, Toyota’s economical Corolla is among the top-selling cars in the world. Toyota has sold more than 30 million Corollas globally over the past 40 years and this year introduced its 10th generation of the fabled nameplate. Building on that reputation, the all-new model sticks to what it knows best with a conservative look that is evocative of preceding models. That’s not to say the new look isn’t contemporary. The three-box sedan has sculpted details around the front fascia and lower body sides to give it a fresh appearance, while still paying homage to previous models and its larger Camry sibling with a face that is unmistakably Toyota. Slightly taller and nearly 2.5 in. wider, the new Corolla looks leaner and sportier, thanks to its stretched A- and C- pillars.

With a 102.4-in. wheelbase, the Corolla gains increased cabin and cargo space, two new engines and a redesigned chassis and suspension. Base, S, LE and XLE models have a 132- horsepower 1.8-liter 4-cylinder engine fitted with dual VVT-i for improved performance and economy. That engine offers buyers a choice of a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic. The new XRS model features a 158-horsepower 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine, 17-in. alloy wheels, 4-wheel disc brakes and Optitron gauges. It’s also the first Corolla model to offer a 5-speed automatic transmission with driver-selectable sequential shifter. The top-line XLE is equipped with a moonroof and stability/traction control. JBL audio and a navigation system are optional. With a fresh new look, upgraded drivetrain and pricing largely under $20,000, Toyota’s string of sales success with the Corolla is likely to continue unbroken.
