Small car Big plans

Ratan Tata, chairman tata sons decided to roll out the revolutionary car tata nano in all the markets including US. Recently during the auto expo 2010 ratan tata announced his plans for entering into the US market with a bigger engine and compliance with auto emissons in USA and other regulatory issues. Geerish wagh the designer of tata nano shuld be credited about what he has done for the company and designing a revolutionary car that has made every car maker thinking about a new car segment that is car for the two wheeler driving people. Nano was underestimated alot with respect to emisson and the car will topple down if the speed increase by a certain limit. But the fact is it is this catr which passed all the tests in europe launching the tata europa and successfuly managed to clear the crash test. Nano has 21% more space than maruti suzuka an is much more efficient than any other car in the segment of small cars. Pradeep Thakur (auhor of the book Tata Nano) has provided some interesting facts about the car. The car will enter the market in US witha price tag of $8000 still cheaper than hyundai's car $9970. With production yet to begin in sanand plant in gujarat we can see more tata nano in the near future. Electric version of the car is also lunched in Europe. Tata motors also planned to luanch the SUV Aria price at 14 lakhs and also the sports version of indica vista. I hope Tata motors do wel in the near fufture as i am a big fan of Mr.ratan tata and his philantrophist ideas.

Google Nexus ONE

the creators of the search engine have decided to enter the mobile phone segment market with the launch of their new phone the Nexus One, Developed By HTC corporation and powered by Google's Android Operating system. The phone wals launched on 5th of January. Phone can be bought only through their website which is but ibvious easy to operate. The question during the lkaunch of the cell phone was is this phone the ultimate Iphone Killer? Analysts say that this is not the Iphone Killer as it lacks in lot of tech specs. Firstly the android os is new to the market and is not a fully developed os and needs time to strenghten itself and the App store has 18000 apps whwreas the iphone has 1 billion apps. The camera is good and better than iphone and the pricing too is better than iphone. With google launching the phone its easy to use google docs and other google apps on the phone. Analysts predicted that the androis market is growing 3 times faster than any other os. With launch of the new os by Nokia Maemo we really need to see where the finland company actually stands as it is loosing market shar drastically due to lack of innnovation and developing same old technology gaian and again. The Nokia N900 is the ultimate and the next big thing for Nokia. ANDROID is the future of call phones Operating System. The HTC Hero the first ever cell phone launched in Android Software is rated as the best phone by the T3 Magazine. Lets hope the Research in motion, Apple, samsung and Sony Ericsson do something out of the box .
