History

Tata Motors launched Tata Nano in 2008 as the most affordable production car in the world, Tata aimed for a price of one lakh rupees ( 100,000) which was approximately $2,500 US at the time. A 2008 study, by Indian rating agency CRISIL projected that Nano would expand the Indian car market by 65%. However, sales for Tata Nano failed to take off and in 2015, GenX Nano was launched with the aim to revive the Nano brand and position it as a more up-market product.
