That or a set that are like the joke below.

An old woman was so distraught at her husband's passing that she decided to join him in the next life. She knew that nobody would give her suicide advice so she asked the doctor "Where is my heart at?". Doctor said "Just below your left breast.". The next day, she was brought to the ER for a gunshot would to the kneecap.

This is hilarious. If you close your eyes you could swear he's talking about an upmarket BMW!

An updated Fiat 600 would seem like a S600 compared to this miracle of paper mache and glue.

Here's another review

Both test drivers stress the fact that "the driving position is very comfortable".
Does that mean the seats are non-adjustable?

The car supposedly gets 25 kilometers to the litre, that's roughly 59mpg. I am not that impressed, since that is what you get in a small Volkswagen with a TDI. In a small WV you also get other features like crash safety...

There are probably more Indians riding scooters than the US population.

And the 35mph wheel bearing isn't bad, since you can never go that fast anyway.

The target demographic for those cars are families who otherwise would be riding motorcycles and scooters, so as for safety I think their lot is greatly improved. That car will never see the shores of America or any other first world country, so I doubt the makers really care what we think.

And a top speed above 65mph!

I'd dare to drive one around a neighborhood, but I'd not want to be anywhere near something that could hit me, its like guaranteed death.

Perhaps the Indian gov wants to use them to bop off a bunch of citizens in traffic accidents....

With the traffic, potholes and congestion on India's roads....most of what the car will be doing is crawling along polluting....and not getting 60mpg. Wonder how well they will hold up on those rough roads..... lol.

It would never sell here, and is extremely unlikely to sell in Europe either....the smart car costs as much as it does because it is safe and meets all requirements. The "nano" doesn't stand a chance.

I like the literature describing features they say, tubeless tires. Just couldnt find one other bullet point besides air in the tires????
