It was billed as the world’s cheapest car and shaped like a jelly
bean -- but after a bumpy 10-year ride India’s Tata Nano is nearing the
end of the road.
Tata Motors, India’s top automaker, said on Thursday Jan 24,2019 that it could stop manufacturing and selling the vehicle from April 2020 due to new safety and emissions rules that would require major investment.
“We may not invest in upgrading all the products and Nano is one of them,” Mayank Pareek, president of passenger vehicles at Tata, told reporters in Hyderabad.
Tata launched the Nano, a compact four or five-door hatchback, with great fanfare in 2009 when its first edition went on the market for around $2,200.
