TATA Nano

Along the lines of Nano we need to start innovating and design new things in other sectors also. For example if you take medical equipments area(optical, surgical, diagnosis etc.) there are hardly any Indian companies in this area. We use so much of imported items in this area. Let us extend the Nano innovation to other areas.
 
I think its good as far the face of india is considered. you see india is a developing country... so nano will add feathers to the developing face india.
 
learn tata..
the best example 4 a cost saving producer!
Some of the methods Tata used to save costs were:
• The Nano's boot does not open, instead the rear seats can be folded down to access the boot space.
• It has a single windscreen wiper instead of the usual pair.
• Some exterior parts of it are glued together, rather than welded.
• It has no power steering.
• Its door opening lever was simplified.
• It has 3 nuts on the wheels instead of the statutory 4 nuts
 
I remember reading an article on the BusinessWeek website called "What Detroit can learn from Tata Motors". It went on to elaborate how Tata Motors had guaged what the Indian Automotive scenario needed and how the Nano was the definitive step in that direction.

Going by the $ 500 Mn that Tata Motors has raised in the booking phase, it is clear that TATA has hit the sweet spot with the Nano.

That being said, the question is Does India really need the Nano? I mean it is a great product, completely innovative et al... but given the affordability quickly suffers abuse in the hands of Indian consumers.

Picture this... The current infrastructure in the cities of Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kolkata, Delhi and Mumbai cant take the swelling traffic that ply on the roads. Can you imagine what would happen if the Nano were to be added into this melee? I dont want to think about it.

Also, the scarier truth is the sheer number of amateur drivers who would clear a farcial driving test and zip across the streets courtesy India's new people mover.

The Nano is a phenomenal product of innovation and preseverance. Sure Ratan Tata will go down in history, but does India's Urbania need the Nano.

Fingers crossed, we haven't heard the last of the people car.

How do you see Nano from India's development perspective?

I personally feel its a symbolic for India's growth and Innovation. The next big thing should be invention and I hope whoever comes to power needs to seed this into our education system.

This is a right time to change education system and make it more enjoyable, practical, challenging.

Please contribute your opinion.

The education system of India mainly concentrates on theory rather than practical field work...

There are a number of individuals who want to try out new things and can create wonders but they are subdued due to the frail system...

If such inventions like Nano are to be made, the government has to remap the entire system to have development at an accelerated rate to make India a superpower fast...
 
I think tata nano will add to unnecessary congestion on roads and thus not as advantageous for indians as it seems.
again we know how tough it will be to ensure oil supply for the govt.
 
I think it will be a devlopment of new segmet of cars that will shurly grow up the indian living standard as well as will be used as option to have a car at very low cost
 
yes....it certainly should be like this...because education is the perspective which can develop india. India has been galactic in the field of innovation but has been below levels and lack of proper guidance and investment has given other nations a chance to give their name to india's innovations.
 
Whether AC version will be useful.
I have some doubt that ac version may not work and if at all works, then driving may not be a pleasure. I am requesting forum members to discuss in this issue.
 
Nano cars are a proof dat India is not behind in the race of increasing the economy,nano is surely poor man's car.


:rockon:way to go tata.
 
yeh guysssssss
i agree wth all of u that nano will definitely boost in the development of our country....its just one kind of improvement in tecnlology and believe me that there will be a lot of improvements in future design wise and also money wise.

:)

cheeeeeers for tataaaaaa
 
as in the present condition of recession the nano will be prove milestone to the economy as nano will provide the huge funds to the tata group it will also help in investing this fund in other tata companies which will definitely help in boosting the economy.
 
we made a promise and delivered . Nano may be a boon for the economy but will seriously increase the traffic problem . i dont think the transport infrastructure can handle it .
