Anyway, Chairman Ratan Tata dedicated the world’s cheapest car to the people of rural India who did not have the means to buy a car, hoping to improve their lives, giving them a better and a safer form of personal transport, assuring that safety on four wheels will be by far more than on a two-wheeler – not unusual to see entire families, two adults with as many as four kids traveling routinely on motorcycles throghout India. Having a 650cc engine and 70 horsepower, the car is said to had met crash test requirements.
