Small car Nano, manufactured by the Tata Group, has won Autocar India 2010's ' Car Of The Year ' award. The prestigious award was presented to Ratan Tata by Autocar editor Chas Hallett.
The
Bloomberg UTV- Autocar Awards 2010 which were presented by HDFC Bank on
January 15th 2010 in Mumbai had most of the industry stalwarts
attending the show.The special guest for the evening was Formula 1
racing champion Narain Karthikeyan while the chief guest of the function
was Minister of State for Road, Transport & Highways Sri.R.P. N.
Singh.
Autocar India said: "The beauty of this car is not its cost, but how much it delivers for so little. Tata had to think out of the box and use innovative engineering to create a car that was desirable, comfortable and safe.
"What
is great about this car is the refusal to compromise despite the small
price tag. Yes there is evidence of creative cost-saving: flat side
glass, a single wiper, no tailgate, no rear wiper, three wheel-nuts
instead of four, one door lock instead of two - but it's not something
you can't live without.
"The Nano also has an unbelievable amount of interior space. It has more space than some cars that are a segment above.
"Recognition is for the full team that worked on the car, and the challenge now is to exceed expectations," Tata Sons' Chairman Ratan Tata said here.
