Absolutely. That was a very big in the failure. Because Indians however frugal they are, don't want to buy anything that's termed CHEAP. Must say what Engineering achieved Marketing lost out on the same. But overall a very good car. Happy user since 10 years.

[@jashsylde8136]

@@samkool3008 That is the problem with people's mentality. Cheapest car in the world is rather an achievement of indian engineering. No other Country could build a car like that without it falling apart on Day-1. Nano was a well built car for its price. Far better than the Scootys or motorbikes of the time. Making a 5-6 lakh car is easy and no big deal using the current manufacturing standards and equipment. But Trying to go below the 3 lakh mark require immense level of ingenuity and feat of engineering to package all that together that wouldnt make a loss, nor break apart easily. Honestly I dont mind Tata Making the Cheapest Car again. I trust their standards of quality control now. If Nano were ever sold today Under 3 lakhs, I would Buy it instantly.

Appreciation shouldn't always come at the end ....and so pointing Maruti cars, isn't gud either. Maruti as a brand has done a lot for india and still is doing...

[@aaronsimon_co]

We had a Tata Nano cx for over 9 years and never once did we have any major engine issues or other mechanical problems, my grandparents loved that car and have even been on roadtrips in it. Throughout those 9 years we travelled a lot in the Nano, one of our most memorable journeys is our roadtrip from Rajasthan to Goa and back which was amazing, even through some of the tricky parts of the journey like the Ghats in Maharashtra the Nano managed to sail through with ease. I too am fortunate enough to have driven the Nano on various highways and have found the drive absolutely remarkable, sure there were quite a few amenities missing in the cx model but I never quite missed them tbh. There are things that I wished were different in the Tata Nano like the placement of the battery and a better glove compartment but nevertheless the Nano remains to be one of my dad's favourite cars that he has owned and mine as well. And id love to get another one soon (preferably a genX) 👀

[@theautochronicles2357]

We had the Gen 2 LX version with body coloured bumpers, front power windows, and fitted a glove box as well. Manual Steering, 4-speed Manual, RWD, and rear mounted engine. It was just a matter of time before I fell in love with this car. Driving around the narrow streets of Bangalore and nostalgic school runs with my friends are some memories I'll never ever forget. I still wish I had it even today. We eventually sold it for a Baleno due to a minor accident that messed up the car's steering. Later on, I realised that we moved from one tin can to another 🥲.

I ama nano lover. It was my first car in 2014 and drove it till 2017 when I upgraded to an Ignis. But I was so sad to let it go and if I had the money to afford both, I would have kept it. So years later in 2021 when the need for a small automatic came up at home, I rushed to buy a GenX. It felt so good to have it back. There is a happy soul in that car that puts a smile on your face. Wanted to point out an error you made which I also did not know until I bought the GenX. The GenX AMT actually has 5 gears. So Tata motors dis do quite a bit of re-engineering to launch the GenX but it is soooo sad that it did not catch on.

Beautiful video! You made me smile.. I am proud owner of Tata Nano 2012 LX for 10 years now. I own other car and driven multiple cars - small and big both types. I can clearly say the it is the best to drive.. especially in city. Technically, it was a marvel and had lot of research and innovation in it but politics was main reason of failure. Maruti would have been wiped out if Nano had came to market in 2007. Another reason was the marketing. In those times, being a car owner was a prestigious thing. But the word 'cheapest' in marketing took its reputation down a lot. I agree it was not safest car but not even a Maruti 800 was and still is not! But it was much safer than bikes and scooters and a boon in rainy season.. Anyways, great video and allnthe best! Thanks for the video :)

@26:15 Small mistake. The Nano AMT had a 5 speed gearbox unlike the manual which was a 4 speed unit. The AMT does have a learning curve to ensure shifts are say smooth (rolling off throttle to trigger upshift etc), but if you are keen to use good performance l, switch to manual and S mode in, it is quite fun n smooth.

[@finderskeepers7293]

The birth of the Nano was with the idea of providing affordable transport for the masses but when that segment did not respond to the product, Tata should have immediately changed gears and they should have marketed this as a city car for those who already had a car (read financially well off who had available parking space and had the financial ability to maintain a car) Nano also made it clear, that those who own two wheelers don't always upgrade to a 4 wheeler. But those who already own a 4 wheeler, would more likely buy a 2nd or 3rd affordable car. Tata should definitely consider the Nano again but in the electric avatar something like the Mahindra e2o.

@@abhinavsingh.92 Reva became the e20 when Mahindra acquired the Maini Motors. I don't know if e20 is still in production but it was a huge step up from the humble Reva.

Great for the city!

I still have a NANO at home. Its really fun to drive around crowded places and in the city where parking space is luxury.

Doubt it

It was in my college days that one of my seniors family bought the first generation Yellow Nano in 2010. It was great feeling riding that cat.

Beautiful..it was .....thnx to Ratan sir ...

RATAN TATA WAS A GENIUS......ITS JUST THAT PEOPLE DID NOT REALISE HIS VISION 😍

[@rukshakkapoor3049]

I just love Tata Nano. This is the car you can take anywhere. Smallest car yet the best marvel of engineering

[@pasangunasena3848]

I am driving my genx since 2015 it has done me great service and continues to do so its very popular in Sri Lanka but sadly tata has stopped producing it if it can be produced in Sri Lanka would be great m

[@rempuial2530]

Still like the Nano very much. So much space, so much fun in a little car. Wish Tata still produces it with refined engines.

[@amrutmahajan1428]

Its a cute little car ideal for city commute, I have been using one for the past 10 years, in fact I bought it cause it is so spacious, I am a heavy set person so has issues sitting in the Alto or Eon or any other small car of that time. The design is also very unique in a positive way.

Step by step we’re going through the more important one

[@srikanthchilakamarri9957]

Nano has got several variants of which i bought AMT variants which cost me Rs 3.5 L. Nano getting labelled as 1L car is very infortunate

[@Aditya-qj4ic]

You got to give it up for the Tata Motors, they started the sub 4 meter sedan a segment new and also could build the Nano from scratch. Which was a very fine car btw. And when Indica V1 failed, they went to Ford, it show that perseverance does pay!

[@vemmanr]

IMHO biggest issue was delay (Singur-Nandigram mess) and by the time it was launched eons & alto thin sheet "cars" come out. Then there's Fire PR, tiny wheels and disc brakes.. If you live in place where roads can get regularly flooded lightly that disc brakes will give you a heart attack.

[@evoIndia]

Singur was the biggest problem

[@Maxland-Versnorris]

Seems like such a fun car. It's a shame that it was stopped. I think if they targetted the right customers, branding it's actual strengths, it could be brought back.

[@abhinavprabhu308]

Even now Nano with CNG launched in market again, I will sell my Grand i10 and buy it !! Tata Nano AMT GenX is a Gem of Indian Traffic. Loved driving it ❣️

[@AKSHAY00024]

I had the very first gen nano n that too in lower most trim! So i got it on road at 1.4 lakhs! The biggest problem was its service n lack of availability of spare parts! That killed it IMO! Positives were of course good space it offered! Tata should really launch it in ev form n market it as a city commuter! Just bump up the bhp to 60 n torque to 80! I feel it can kill market of cars like alto!

[@evoIndia]

That’ll be a museum piece now!

[@AKSHAY00024]

@Raavana Surya yea thats the problem with tata! They are usually late! At present there s no ev hatchback in the market, just imagine the potential of such kind of product!

[@SantoshKumarsp57]

Always loved to own one, but could not afford it as the price went on up since its launch. Before discontinuation, It was almost 3.5 lakhs on road for my favourite automatic version. Better build quality and an EV Nano would really be cool for a comeback for this Ratan Tata's dream
