40km/lit from a Indian car

Tata Nano diesel, the much awaited diesel version of the country’s cheapest car, is all set to be the most fuel efficient car in the Indian market as the company is planning to launch a highly fuel efficient Nano that will run as much as 40 km on a liter of diesel. The car is expected to hit the Indian roads by the end of this year.

As per a recent statement given by a senior executive of Bosch India to Business Standard, “We have worked with Tata Motors for Nano’s petrol version and we are working with it for the diesel version too. The car has a two-cylinder, 700cc engine which develops healthy power without compromising on fuel economy. Although official test figures have not been revealed, we expect it to run 40 km on one litre of diesel.”

Designing a new product based on certain standards and launching it successfully are altogether two different aspects to be taken care of in a new product offering. This is where most of the new products, especially engineering products, falter and need rectification of error on constant basis.

Well, that’s about its past. Now, that the technical defects are resolved; all attention shifts to mileage and fuel efficiency of the petit car. Even reports suggest that Tata Motors is planning to launch a diesel version of Nano which targets a higher mileage of 40 km/litre, rendering it as most fuel efficient car in India.

Nano is the largest-selling Tata model in India with its sales figures  reaching 2,56,202 cars, 27% more than the previous year; coming on the back of prompt business recovery strategy led by increased promotional efforts, additional tie-ups with finance institutions to facilitate fast-track loans to borrowers, new comprehensive maintenance contract at just Rs.99 for all new buyers of the car and an extended warranty on Nano to 4 years or 60,000 kms, which ever is earlier, at no extra cost.

AND ANYONE GUESS WHICH
CAR IS THIS........
