Forget it folks! The Compressed air car was suppose to be here six years ago! India is buying more of them then they are making of these! U.S won't allow it! Big Oil has always run the US and will always continue to run it! Even as it runs the Big Three Automakers into the ground for being so loyal to Big Oil! Even Obama hasn't gone after them when everybody but Big Oil is losing money! Even when the Government has to bail everybody but Big Oil out! You could build the cheapest most greenest car and they won't let you sell it! Forget it folks! You should know better by now!

Joey, I think the Tata Nanos are only sold in India.

You can find more info on the Tata Nano site: http://tatanano.com.

Ashley, that is cool that you were in India for a month. I really want to go back.

You are right about the infrastructure in India. It has a long ways to go. I actually traveled by car from Chennai to Thiruvananthapuram (down at the southern tip of Kerala). That was one beautiful and also crazy ride.

I am also interested in how the new tata will effect Inida. I recently returned from a month in south Inida — Tamilnadu and Kerala — and experienced the chaos of the traffic.

I don’t know how the current roads will keep up with so many additional cars hitting the streets. Also parking and pollution will be an issue. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. I believe after this car hits the streets many changes will have to happen. Currently traffic moved along pretty well and traffic jams were not too common … mainly in Cochin. But if more traffic jams happen, the harmony in driving will no long be there and I believe more traffic lights, rules and new roads, bridges, etc. will be needed. And it seems the government is slow to move so I think it won’t happen right away and will slowly begin to change as drivers raise a fuss. By the time I return to visit, it will be a very different country b/c part of the charm was driving and the winding roads that seemed to just pop up — there seemed to be no planning on how roads were developed and in the future a plan will need to be there. I look forward to keeping an eye on how India grows.
