weblog#2 :India's ultracheap car arrives with load of uncertainties

I’ve heard about this idea on year ago. To me, the most impressive part of the mini car is the single windshield wiper. I thought that car is so cute at first time. It let me remind the small car which just has two seats to sit in Taiwan. However, I think it’s strange after knowing that Tata Nano does not build in the air conditioner, because India has the melting-hot weather. It seems that it’s necessary to have a conditioner in Nano, or you’ll become BBQ in your dear car.

Moreover, the viewpoints of Nano are totally different between India and Western countries. Indians want to get rid of driving motorcycle as soon as possible. They do not really care about the quality of car, because they just want to be an “owner” of a car. To Indians, having a car means another class for them. Unlike Indians, people who live in Western countries have another status to pursue. To them, it’s common to have a car; the point is, whether the equipments in their car are the best or not. As a result, the idea of Nano did not attract them at all. The thing they worry about is the safety of Nano. To sum up, this issue shows the different conceptions of developing country and developed countries, and it also let me think about—perhaps China is the next country which intends to invent the cheapest vehicle of the world.
