Nano - A low cost Car?
Tata Nano

I write this review against Car lover 2010s review Well Ladies and Gentlemen, Let me share my experiences with Nano. I shall not bother much about technical details but looks and utility of the car from Tata Stable. Let me assure you that we drove the car from Hyderabad to Warrangal on a sun...day on non-crowded roads (up and down) doing about 200 plus Kms. I shall not go into the technicals. but would limit to simple fundas. Observation -1 Driving the car is good. The steering is comfortable and light. However, the stability on road is not great. If a truck overtakes you or passes from the opposite side, my God, the car just shivers (not shakes) in the backlash of the air discharged by other vehicle. True, This could be due to air scoops given on sides to cool the engine. I think tatas have patent for this. There is anomaly for this that if any one has experience in driving chetak – scooter, which has fan for engine cooling. Even chetak or nano when moving on a bridge (nearer to side railings) gives humming sound. This is a technical point, one has to understand. I think this need not be considered as negative. Observation-2 The wheels are small. If there are oversized speed breakers in the road, you have to necessarily slow down. Even driving in decent speed in pot holed roads, the streering shudder in your hands. Not a great grip on the road. May be correct. But steering is not vague. Shuddering you mean only happens on a holed/dirty road. Be happy if steering is that way, this indicates good alignment. Observation-3 The AC is good only if kept at point 1 or point 2. Any higher points you only get blast of hot air. Please also try to take external air. Because of the heat generated from the back, a sort of stale smell comes inside the cabin if you operate AC for a longer time in recirculation mode. I have been driving Nano for long trips. Engine heat from rear is not entering into cabin at all. I tried pushing fingers into the gapsRead More
