NNN-AGENCIES -- The ultra-low-cost Nano Tata Motors unveiled four years ago, the "people's car" made headlines as the world's cheapest car, a safe upgrade for the millions of families who crowd four (or more) onto two-wheelers in India. But sales have been challenging and a long road lies ahead to lift sales to its targeted 250,000 a year. Farmer protests disrupted early production and the first buyers did not get their cars until July 2009. Reports of fires scared away customers, would-be buyers had difficulty securing financing, and the price rose well above its initial 100,000 rupees ($1,878). Photo courtesy of bikesforsale.com--- NNN
