Exterior
Exteriors are Good for city drive, small and compact. Powerful enough Head Lights
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
Spacious Interiors, AC is Very good. Poor quality door latches/finishing around it. try using the Hazard Light button on the steering mount, you will have it in your hand if you put more pressure. No pleasure in driving a NON powersteering Nano.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
Quite Good for its size. but, yes will not tire on the clean roads and highways at least for frist 80-100 kms.
Ride Quality & Handling
Poor on bad or OK roads. Shock absorbers needs to be more active and smooth.
Final Words
for the money we pay, the car is good. Anyday better than a 2 Wheeler. But yes, if you want to change it after a year or two, you get only PEA NUTS in the secondary market. Mine is an LX 2012 model (which i bought it from my friend when it had just done 1200 KMS) andhas done only 13000 KMS. When i tried to exchange this to the newly launched Nano AMT, i was shocked to get a verbal quote from Aadhya motors, Hebbal as Rs.70000/- for the car !!!!! imagine, your hard earned Rs.240000/- 3 years back has gone down to Rs.70000/-. I understand Cars do Depreciate BUT definitely i wouldnot like to have a car that Depreciates like an apple falling from the tree. NO MORE TATA PRODUCTS, NO MATTER HOW GOOD THEY ARE, IF THEY ARE :-(
