This car would revolutionalise manufacturing. The ‘Dream Car’ can boast of being the cheapest car in the world. The biggies worldwide have a long way to go and will have to re-look their cost structures now. As Ratan Tata said, “Pachauri need not have any nightmares.” The car conforms to all emission norms. Tongue-in-cheek Ratan Tata also made a comment on Mamta Banerjee when he said that the car was to be named the Mamta car or the Despite Mamta car. Tata’s will have one hundred thousand cars coming out of their Singur Plant every year for the next five years.
There were speculations that the car would fail to even meet the Euro 3 standard and would be an environment hazard.
