Tata announces to launch Nano with a diesel model in August or September.It is quit difficult that the new Nano could turnaround of Nano brand which has taken a very poor experiance in sales,price increase and some safety concerns.
According to the vendor source,"The diesel engine will be in the 600-700 cc range like the petrol version and could be priced at a slight premium over the current variants,". Component makers expect the diesel Nano to sport a price tag between Rs 1.8-2.2 lakh."
The diesel Nano will be the smallest and cheapest diesel car in the market and sport a sub-1000 cc engine, but with output and performance 20-30% better than is usual for that engine size.
The diesel Nano, which was to have debuted immediately after the petrol versions, got delayed on account of moving the car's mother plant from Singur to Sanand in Gujarat.
After Nano sales decrease to just over 500 units in November, Tata Motors announced a host of marketing incentives. From last week, the car is also available in all the 874 Tata Motors outlets across the country. It was earlier available in only 12 states. The company's decision to offer longer warranties at less than Rs 100 per month maintenance offers and easy financing schemes helped increase sales to nearly 6,000 units in December, a near tenfold rise from the month before.
If we talking about the diesel version of cars then there are already a long wait list of diesel versions cars like Suzuki Swift, Dzire and Ford Figo. There lots of car company launching diesel models and even Honda, traditionally a petrol player, is also developing a small diesel engine which it will introduce in the Indian market.
