It is definitely there in the plan. Tatas are on record saying both petrol and diesel options are being considered. Even if the diesel does not come out immediately on launch it will do so in sometime soon.

No concrete news on this as yet. It may be a little smaller than the erstwhile Matiz. Expect it to be as tall as the Indica if not more.

On a 1 lakh car?! Are you nuts? It will be a very basic car with minimalistic approach towards things. At least the ones that get manufactured for the local markets won't have any such thing.

Worldwide will be a stretched dream at this stage. Tatas do harbour some dreams though they are clamped on that count as yet. It may get pushed to other countries where the demographic and economic strata matches that of india. So Tatas may look at some african countries, latin america countries and asian countries as well.
