Ola and Uber have drawn up their battle lines. Ola with Tata & Jayem Neo (Tata Nano) will be battling with Uber cabs which has teamed up with Mahindra (E2O).
The Tata Nano will be manufactured by Tata and sent to Jayem automotive for fitting it with electric drive train and then handed over to Ola (a little complicated system).
The profit margin in… Continue reading
Many people think that the Nano did not sell because it was called the “cheapest” car. This is not true. Nano had good response and did well till year 2012 after which sales dropped.
Nano is an unique vehicle. Nano has features that other vehicles can never… Continue reading
The world is moving towards banning Petrol & Diesel for all vehicles by the year 2025. The use of Electric vehicles are becoming more real than ever before. India has 2 good electric cars in E2O & E2O Plus. The cost of travelling in these cars are as cheap as travelling by a motocycle. Since this car does not use Petrol or Diesel (which are very expensive and harmful fuel)… you can save as much as Rupees 1 Lakh a year on fuel cost…especially if you drive a total distance of 100kms.
The maths is very simple… to recharge this “E2O Plus” P8-version car you will need just Rs 100 and you get 140km range. Most people travel within this range.
140kms with a petrol car will… Continue reading
Hero E-Cycle Lectro price of Tata Nano… the stupidity of using batteries and that too li-ion ones for electric cycles is completely exposed with this. SO STOP MAKING ELECTRIC CYCLES that has a stupid price tag of scooters & motorcycles if not a Nano car!
IF YOU GUYS CANNOT PUT SOLAR PANELS ON IT… STOP PUTTING BATTERIES ON IT FOR HEAVEN SAKE!!!
There is no doubt the fat-bike is an eye-catcher…. but… Continue reading
With the ouster of Cyrus Mistry… and Ratan Tata back at the helm of things there is a great possibility of Tata Nano EV coming off the benches and being pressed into play.
If you remember Cyrus Mistry was the guy who had decided to stop production of the Nano by next year (2017) if… Continue reading

Strong sales of the Tata Nano in recent months will see the firm double its production output of the car.
The move will see up to 20,000 Nanos built per month this fiscal year (April 2016 – March 2017).
Sales in March of the micro car reached 8,707 units, closing in on the firm’s record high of 9,000 sales, which was set in July last year.
For years the competing auto companies regularly pulled down the vehicle citing safety concerns. Tata Nano with is in fact as safe or unsafe as an Hyundai i10 which also doesn’t have Airbags.
Tata Nano is also one thousand times more safer than bikes, scooters & motorcycles and It is also much safer than the 3 wheel auto-rickshaw too. But these are modes of transport of millions of Indians and billions worldwide.
Many people do not understand that NCAP Safety Ruling has been used as a very cunning Trade Barriers to block the entry of Asian cars into US & European countries. NCAP keeps testing frontal crashes at 60kmph when in real life the crashes which happen due to overspeeding is ALWAYS above 100kmph.
All subcompact cars (be it the Alto, i10, WagonR, Celerio, Beat, or from Volkswagen, Mercedes, BMW.. all) due to their short bonnet or “nose” are equally UNSAFE at this speed.
Frontal crash of 60kmph mean… both cars are traveling at 30kmph in a head-on crash… get real… 30kmph speed mean city bumper to bumper city traffic…
People have started to realize that Tata NANO GenX Automatic is one awesome car!!!
Gogoro is a scooter that travels 100km IF…IF…. IF driven at 25kms speed and possibly 50kms if driven at higher speed. It has battery you cannot charge at home or anywhere at all… if you want to charge it then you got to take it to the charging station… for which you have to drive to the nearest charging station to swap the batteries… The Scooter itself is so short and small that only 1 adult can sit on the scooter. But in its website it keeps talking about “carrying another passenger”…wonder where? On your lap or your shoulder? Which is why of all the thousands of images of the scooter very few is there of the scooter with side view like below… even in this the rider has been pushed to the front and his knees is touching the front part of the bike.To go through all this torture you have to shell out…
Gogoro is an expensive 1 person scooter! CNG vehicles have equivalent running cost as electric vehicles without the higher initial cost of the Electric Vehicles!!!
VW Cheating is biggest proof that Diesel cannot meet emission standards!!!
The dangers of vehicles polluting our fresh air is a real one… and finally the world is waking up to the fact and taking action accordingly. Global fight against Polluting Vehicles is a battle for the survival of Mankind.
