The specifications of Tata Nano, especially those related to safety seems really the main point of worry. I guess most people would be better off travelling by a bike rather than using this car. But with India being highly price sensitive, If Tata Nano becomes a hit and if there is competition in this segment, there would definitely be concerns of an environmental disaster. Tata Nano could lead to lakhs of new automobiles hitting already clogged Indian roads , adding to mounting air and noise pollution. I am really worried about the crowded roads of Chennai, Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkatta and Bangalore can they handle more cars ??
