Asians scooting along with 3-4-5-6 passengers. on 2 wheels. That Tata's gonna be big!

To quote Maneesh: "A four wheeled, 623cc rear-engined 'car' might make for less touristy pictures, but I suppose comparatively a whole lot safer. And somehow, things like passing European crash tests and concerns about side impact safety just bring a wry smile".

I once owned a car with no AC, no power steering, and crank windows...yep, used it to go hunting the Indians out Wyoming way.
I spose the grandkids will believe the Indian bit, but no way on the hand crank windows, manual steering and no AC.

The first car I ever had with electric windows, power steering and A/C was in 1983. Wow, what luxury! Didn't dump my 1970 Plymouth Duster 'til 1985.
