Hottest News about Nano

This would probably be the most horrifying picture Mr Ratan Tata had ever seen. His dream is on fire. 


The car was delivered to Satish Sawant, an insurance agent and was also offered a driver to drop him as he cannot drive. The fire happened on the way home at the Eastern Express Highway. After the fire was put out by a fire tender, it was found that the fire broke from the rear engine. This is the second case after the first incident happend in Mumbai, where the car got self ignited. ( The owner had then claimed a Mercedes as replacement. Read Story)

These incidents have caused a serious concern on the product and its reliability. In a time where product recalls are the talk of manufacturers, the safety of Nano is under lights now. After long debates of the occupants safety and evironmental issues, Nano also won the Euro crash tests. Though it is still not clear about the exact reasons for the incidents, Tata had not made any announcements regarding these accidents. This had put the reliability of the company understake now. This, now is a chance for the other small car players to take advantage of the situation in the market. Tata should now act on this with care as word of mouth publicity is going to spread faster than the fire.

After all a promise is a promise only when delivered without compromise.
