While the latest, fourth-generation Swift makes no pretence of being a performance car or the last word in luxury, what it does stand for is amply evident, notes Pavan Lall.
Sanand produced only 515 Nanos in January, and sold even less, just around 391 units.
To continue its dominance in the compact sedan segment, which consists hard-nuts like Tata Tigor, Hyundai Xcent and VW Ameo, the numero uno carmaker has fielded third generation Dzire.
Tata Motors ended the year selling 21,012 Nanos, up from 16,901 in FY15.
Compact car space is going to exciting times in the coming year.
Every three minutes, in some corner of the country, two Altos are being sold.
The car will compete with Hyundai Grand i10 and Maruti Suzuki Celerio
Market watchers believe Tata Motors' move to upgrade the Nano is a right decision.
