Report: Tata hopes to offer $7,000 car in U.S.
2011 Tata Nano CX – Click above for high-res image gallery
Is the Tata Nano finally ready to take on U.S. roads? Ratan Tata, Chairman of the Tata Group, believes so, but the car won’t be the same $ 2,500 vehicle found in India. Instead, according to The New York Times, Tata says the American market will get a car built to be competitive here yet still priced well below the competition.
It seems the North American-spec Nano could cost between $ 7,000 and $ 8,000. Will that be enough to lure buyers into their local Tata dealer’s showrooms? If gas prices keep climbing, consumers could be attracted by the Nano if the Americanized version can achieve something along the lines of the 52 miles per gallon city/62 miles per gallon highway fuel economy that the current model achieves.

Daimler exec explains challenges, hopes for hydrogen, electric cars
Mercedes-Benz F-Cell – Click above for high-res image gallery
Plugin Cars recently spoke with Daimler’s director of fuel cell and battery drive development, Dr. Christian Mohrdieck, to discuss the company’s stance on the whole hydrogen fuel cell vs. battery powered argument and found out it’s really more of a H2 + EV calculation. Daimler’s current roster, which includes the Smart ED, the A-Class E-Cell and the S-Class plug in hybrid, shows it is quite invested in the battery side of the debate. However, Mohrdieck does acknowledge that electric vehicles have their setbacks. He said, “If you need a larger vehicle, if you need long range, if you need short refueling times, then you have to something else than batteries.”
That’s why Daimler is equally invested in development of fuel-cell powered vehicles. Mohrdieck cites MIT’s projection that, in the long run, fuel-cell vehicles will be cheaper than EVs. As for the issues fuel-cell vehicles face (i.e., lack of refueling infrastructure and the energy requirements of creating and transporting hydrogen), Mohrdieck says that the same problem exists for EVs. New infrastructure is needed to support EV owners without garages to charge in and we still need large amounts of fossil fuels to create most of the electricity to run the vehicles.
