Tata Motors Rs. 1 lakh Car scoop photo!
Team BHP broke the store here: SCOOP! Tata’s One Lac Car – REAL PICTURE!
Indian automaker Tata Motors is scheduled to launch their Rs. 1 lakh car sometime next year. The car is expected to revolutionize the automobile market in India as it would give the option to two wheeler owners to consider upgrading to a cheap car.
The company has been very secretive about the project and few details have been released to the media.
However, the automotive forum Team BHP has released what they claim is the first publicly released photo of the Tata’s upcoming Rs. 1 lakh car.
The image is small and not very clear but it looks like a shrunk version of the Daewoo Matiz which was sold in the Indian market till some years back.
More on Tata’s Rs. 1 Lakh Car!

Good for Tata…this car will revolutionize india in much the same way that the Model T, Volkwagen Bug, Fiat 500 and Renault 2CV did to their respective countries.
The car looks attractive…however given the driving rules (ie none or not followed)..I hope due respect have been paid to safety standards.
October 30th, 2007 at 4:31 pm
Its a very good car and it is for just Rs.1lack
October 31st, 2007 at 8:50 am
This car could be the most important development in the auto industry in decades. Tata should be congratulated in advance.
How about a plug in version?
—so impressed that I bought Tata stock.
October 31st, 2007 at 9:22 pm
This carwill bring revoulation if they launch in the market before time, no doubt it will be a wonder on the earthfor the people who cannot afford today.
October 31st, 2007 at 10:44 pm
what about the real size of the car will it be the same size as matiz or slightly small for if it is smaller than matiz it may be not accomodate five people . what about the body any specifications?
November 19th, 2007 at 6:23 pm
well this is a 4 seater car
November 21st, 2007 at 1:01 am
Hi, Heard the car will be launched with diesel version too. Any idea when will it get launched. Will they show it in coming Jan/Feb 2008 Auto Expo at Delhi, or we need to wait for it. If anyone has some information kindly mail it on my id nishantkashyap@sify.com
Thanks……Nishant

this is car is a five seater car. confirmed from friends in tata motors and it is a 600 cc car with engine at the rear. The max speed of the car is 80 kms and the basic petrol version will be non ac and will be priced at around 1.05 lac ex factory. This car exactly looks like a minature version of Zen estilo. later on diesel versions as well as auto gear versions where u dont have to change gear like kinetic honda scooters will be launched. This is best for city rides. I am A patriot and i will buy and i am waiting to book and ride the car. you guys do the same RAtan TATA is a visionary three cheers to him
December 4th, 2007 at 6:40 pm
it’s very nice but if there is any other option for fuel like LPG or CNG gas then it’s more suitable for middle class people.
December 7th, 2007 at 2:35 pm
pls let me kno when the car is coming when exeact pls we r waiting for the booking pls we want to book car now but i want to kno the lounching date
December 14th, 2007 at 6:04 pm
the car is dam COOL……………….
i want to kno the lounching date
December 16th, 2007 at 12:57 pm
4 seater car is coming at the price of high end bike and this is most importent milestone for TATA
December 17th, 2007 at 5:14 pm
Its simply beautiful, cost efficeint, affordable for middle class.
Big Bang.
Congratulations & Thanks to TATA’s for the Thought of the most economical and affordable dream car for indain middle class.
December 18th, 2007 at 6:36 pm
dis is an excellent car for middle class families…. and 2 wheelers may be ruined!!……
December 19th, 2007 at 4:04 pm
When is it going to get launched? Does any1 know anything about booking it in advance? Its really a good thing to come. Only problem after that would be of parking and traffic coz lot of people will try to accomodate their four wheeler dreams in this car. Cities like Mumbai & Bangalore would become more congested. People will plan to buy this car instead of buying bikes.
December 19th, 2007 at 4:11 pm
Its great..visionary…
but have u thought how many more cars will be added on the road!!! esp delhi…
scary thought!
December 20th, 2007 at 10:17 pm
Please inform me the launching date. It is a boon and essential requirement of doctor couples with lower incomes caters.
December 22nd, 2007 at 12:01 am
really its a very good news for mid class family its may be bad for the indian traffic. Govt have to develope the plan that how to tackle this problem, as soon as possible.
December 22nd, 2007 at 10:23 am
sounds good….. as a project and product it is ground breaking….. but in the hands of us Indians ??????? next thing u know they may be cutting traffic and overtaking from the left as the bikes do…. CHAOS… cars can be purchased not driving culture and decorum… WILL THIS REVOLUTIONISE or DEMONISE INDIAN ROADS?? of course even rich guys crash expensive ones too…. Hey all this talk of 1 Lakh car…. How about a Decent diesel at 2.5 Lakhs… WHY NOBODY’S come up with one at that range… boon to a lot of middle middle class folks… can’t grasp what these head honchos think about launching a product….REMEMBER late 90’s- MATIZ first launched and only fully loaded at 4 plus Lacs :: SANTRO first launched starting at around 2.95-3 lacs less then the ZEN at around 3.4 lacs….. by the time the BIGWIGS at Daewoo got around too make things right the Santro story had reached deep into India… VALUE FOR MONEY – thats my assessment of the Indian Consumer…. not just cheap or fully loaded

December 27th, 2007 at 5:56 pm
it has variants 1,17,119 n 136231
December 28th, 2007 at 12:40 am
I think Rs 1lac is a bit too much for a car.I honestly feel that the prices should still be lowered so that poor people like us can affored it.Its still expensive as far my opinion goes.I would probably wait for a more cheaper car which would come arounf 45 – 50 thousand.
This car is still out of my pockets reach!!!

January 1st, 2008 at 6:49 pm
what ever tatas do, they always do their best n loved by their customers. i m sure this will be a turning point in the small car segment. once again tata are going to throng the market of maruti & others.
