India is now a mature car market

India now produces some of the best small cars in the world. Gone are the days of the Ambassador car era - see our page on the history of cars in India. Tata Motors made us all Indians proud when they made a success of their take over of the JLR (Jaguar Land Rover) Group, when other well known International companies like Ford failed to do so - see History of Tata Motors.

India's Tata Motors hit world headlines on 11 January 2008, when they showed off to the world an in-house designed and fully locally manufactured car: the Tata Nano. The Tata Nano was then, and even now, the cheapest car in the world. Tata Nano is doing well, and for many Indians, it is their first car which they own, because they can afford it. This is a fulfillment of the dream of the retired Chairman of Tata Motors, Mr. Ratan Tata, who hit upon the idea when he saw a man driving a scooter with wife and 2 kids in the rain. The latest models of Nano now come in the automatic version: To quote from the Tata Nano website:

"The Newest Compact Hatch in Town, the GenX Nano Easy Shift (AMT). It comes with Easy Shift (Automated Manual Transmission), Electric Power Assisted Steering (ePAS), Infinity motif design theme and an AmphiStreamTM music system with BluetoothTM connectivity, to name a few. Not to forget, the Best-in-class* AC, this one's quite cool!"
