Tata Nano to be Bigger in Size, Likely to Add Boot Space - Asian Cars Industry

Small car Nano is going to be a little big, as heard from rumours coming from Tata’s inner corridors. Though in a reply to an email, company denied the fact but if speculations are to be believed, Nano is being redesigned to add some boot space at the back of the vehicle, which will in turn make this cheapest car bit pricier. Furthermore few additional changes will also be offered to this little car and with an aim to meet customer’s needs properly, a CNG and a diesel version of Nano will also be introduced as said by Karl Slym, managing director.

 
According to Vishal Srivastava, research manager of Credit Analysis & Research, lack of boot space in Nano constrained its sales, making it  just a city car. Though absence of power steering option and low power of Nano as compared to entry level Maruti cars will hold back its sales but proper boot space may elevate the sales counts, he added. Vishal also stated that in this competitive era, buyers are very aware and they do not mind shedding a few more thousand rupees to buy Maruti cars, so increasing boot space will not make any difference on Nano sales, however CNG and diesel versions will surely boost the sale numbers.

 
Ratan Tata, Chairman Tata Motors said in an interview that redesigned Nano could drive in US, which is a very enticing market and the sub-$10,000 car will definitely have appeal. To  meet US market competition, Nano will undergo redesign process in terms of power steering and traction control, which will hike its price up to $8,000 (Rs 4,28,000), he added.

 
If reports of Automotive News and Associated Press are to be believed, the redesigned Nano will also house a bigger engine along with many more buzzing features and auto group is also working on restyling the Nano for Europe as well.
