Just when you thought they couldn’t possibly find a way to make an uglier car.

Accelerating from 0-60 miles an hour takes approximately 30 seconds — making the Nano 15 seconds slower than the Smart Fortwo, presently the slowest accelerating car sold in the United States

Well isn't that exciting?!?!?!

This is what happens when a VW mates with a golf cart!

0-60 in 30 seconds. And that’s the “hot rod” version.

I can already see the leftists in their new “hot rods”. Pulling onto the interstate, barely at half the speed limit. Refusing to yield as the enter causing a ripple of traffic congestion behind them. Then cutting people off as they cut across multiple lanes of traffic so they can park themselves in the passing lane - by now doing 3/4 of the speed limit.

Looks like an AWD version would be fun in the snow. I would definitely add a rollcage, though.

We are moving backward. My 1977 VW Rabbit diesel got 50+ on the highway, had room for 4 adults and luggage with comfort and would cruise at 80. You could get in and out with ease and while the ride was firm (not brutal), it handled well. It was a wonderful car.

The car appears to be a knockoff of some Darth Vaderish toy from Star Wars.

“Powered by a tiny, 35-horsepower 2-cylinder gas engine, the Nano is capable of approximately 50 miles per gallon.”

Big deal. The 1992 Honda Civic VX hatchback got 54 mpg and had a 110hp engine. Pretty good umph for a sub-compact.

This should tell everyone that out-sourcing American jobs to India is not a good idea.

You want a country handling your high-tech...when they make a car like this?

Put a blade under it...we can call it a lawnmower

I could use one of these as a step stool so I can wash the top of my Corvette.

It looks like they took the front end of the ugliest car ever produced (the Azetec) and attached it to a golf cart.
