TATA Nano EV
Indian city car set to go even greener with plug-in electric version
It’s the world’s cheapest car – but as if that wasn’t enough, the TATA Nano will soon be available in electric form too. The Indian company has already developed a plug-in Indica and the same technology will be transferred to the Nano. Developed with the help of Norwegian electric vehicle specialist Miljobil Grenland, it features a hi-tech lithium-ion superpolymer battery that promises a range of 120 miles from a single charge. Expect the eco-friendly four-seater to do 0-60mph in less than 10 seconds, while its battery can be fully revived in eight hours.
The only problem could be the price – the Indica EV goes on sale in Norway soon for the equivalent of £25,000. But with a subsidy a Nano EV could cost a lot less.
