Honestly, you can’t really ask for much when you’re buying a brand new car at just $2,500 like the Tata Nano. It has become extremely popular in its native India, and is gearing up to be released in other territories, including Europe.
But it seems that Tata isn’t happy with shipping an India-spec Nano to these countries, and is considering implementing some upgrades to the model, among which a better acceleration and … wait for it … a tailgate. No, I’m not kidding, it seems that future Nano owners will be able to push the 33 HP engine to a new redline at 6,000 rpm, but due to safety considerations, the top speed will still be limited to 65 mph. Also, the Indian engineers are considering shipping the Nano with a five-speed gearbox in Europe, and keeping the four-speed one in the local market.
