TATA is in a great position to develop different drivetrains for their nano. It can use the same production facilities to develop such cars and should work out a lot cheaper than cars like Reva.
Hope TATA will make use of nano for air/electric/fossil fuels and pass on cost benefits to customers.

I think, they are launching the Indica Vista with electric engine in Norway. Bigger Batteries, Motors and Cheaper Power will make it a practical car for them.

why not in India too????
they sure can get a huge market if they can price them in the reva price bracket.
everyone considering the Reva but let down by its look will buy vista anyday.
