Tata Nano Catches Fire

Tata Motors, a leading auto manufacturer in India, recently came out with an extremely low cost car, the Tata Nano that sells for only $2,500. One Mumbai owner, software engineer Satish Sawant, his wife and 5-year-old son escaped from their silver Tata Nano – which still bore a celebratory garland of marigolds on the front hood – before the tiny car was engulfed by fire.

Not surprisingly, according to Mr Sawant, his wife "doesn't want to buy any car," not even a Mercedes."s-TATA-NANO-EXPLODES-large.jpg
