Tata Nano, Not a New Video Game

By E L Eversman

Despite the name, the Tata Nano is a car. Yes, a motor vehicle — at a cost of $2,500. Of course, that reminds us all of the Yugo days (OK those of us who are actually old enough to remember the Yugo). India’s auto maker recently unveiled the world’s most inexpensive car. According to Body Shop Business, a leading collision repair industry magazine, the average vehicle repair cost is around $2,500, thus, virtually guaranteeing that a wreck in a Tata Nano is a total loss. Now, if only it ran on an available fuel source other than a petroleum product. That would be really great.
