Photos: Tata's budget Nano car

The cabin of the car seats four people -- "comfortably", the company says, "with generous leg space and head room." The four-door (plus tail gate) car is taller than it is wide: 1.6 metres tall by 1.5 metres across. From front to back, it measures 3.1 metres.

The car has a two-cylinder, 623-cc fuel-injection engine. Tata says that this marks the first time that a two-cylinder gas engine is being used in a car with a single balancer shaft. The model pictured here is the standard version.
