Tata Motors showcased the Tata Nano Europa which is intended
for a future launch in select international markets at the 79th
Geneva Motor Show. The Nano Europa encompasses additional features
as compared to the Nano destined for India in order to make it more
suitable for European driving conditions as well as meet European
regulations.
Speaking on the occasion at the Geneva Motor Show, Mr. Ratan N.
Tata, Chairman of Tata Sons and Tata Motors, said, "In India,
the Nano will be launched on March 23, and the cars will be on display
at company dealerships from the first week of April. The Nano has
also generated wide interest in developed countries, since it's
unveiling in Delhi and its presentation here last year. We are delighted
to present the Nano Europa for future launch in such markets."
As compared to the version destined for India, the Nano Europa
comes with a slightly longer wheelbase of 2.28 metres which marginally
increases interior space. However, unlike India, the Europa will
come fitted with a 3 cylinder all aluminium MPFI engine mated to
a 5 speed automatic gearbox. The car will also have electric power
steering. Tata promises that the Nano Europa, despite the larger
engine, will continue to be extremely environmentally friendly and
offer extremely low CO2 emissions-somewhere in the league of 100gm
per kilometer. Safety has been increased on the Europa by offering
the car with ABS, ESP and airbags.
Just like the Tata Nano, the Tata Nano Europa incorporates exterior
compactness with interior comfort and seeks to provide motorists
the pleasure and utility of personal mobility combined with affordability
and environment-friendliness, in a world where smaller, fuel-efficient
cars are emerging as a preferred choice.
