Tara Tiny @ 2447.41 $ is the world's cheapest car!
March 17, 2008
The Tata Nano is no longer the world's cheapest car! Jostling along with Tata Nano, this July, will be Tara Tiny and Tara Titu. These are zero emission, electric cars and cost only Rs 99000(2447.41$)! And they come from the Tara International stable.

Tara S Ganguly, the company's chairman and chief executive officer, had a big dream. And he set about realising it 'in a small way.' Tara International has teamed up with China's Aucma, a leading player in the electrical vehicles and appliances segment, to manufacture these cars.

At the moment, four variants of electric cars are ready at the Tara International factory at Palta, a few kilometers from Kolkata. These are Tara Tiny, Tara Titu (two-seater and four-seater, respectively), Tara Shuttle, and Tara Carrier. While Tara Tiny and Tara Titu are priced at 2447.41$(approximately), Tara Shuttle and Tara Carrier are priced at Rs 500,000 (approximately 12360.66$).


The Tara series cars are available in electric red, black and white. Bikes comes in varied hues -- green, blue, red, etc. To know about the specifications of the car and see more pictures of the world's 'cheapest' car read on. . . lol

That's not a car. That's a toaster with wheels! Who are they trying to fool saying that it's emmission free and environmental friendly and all. Sure, the "car" itself doesn't put out any emissions (other than ozone and possibly hydrogen), but what about the power plants that have to produce the electricity that is used to charge the batterys? There is still pollution produced in order to run it, so how green is it?
