Its the cheapest new car in the world BUT its MR (mid engine, rear wheel drive)!!!!

It would also be unique because India is not represented in GTs car lineup...

I say, let it into GT. We have other lightweight, low-power city cars in the game (Subaru 360, classic Fiat 500s, Mazda Carol, etc.), this would work as a new rival to that class.
Becides there's no cars from India in this game. Beings that this game is all about racing a variety of cars from around the world, why not give this little car a shot.

I would love to do a cup race with these on all the smallest and tightest courses on GT.
If a Race Modified version was also available (retuned engine, Color & Number Changeable), that would be even better.
 
What about the Tata Nano's test track also, to give PD some more multicultural Variety. Kari Motor Speedway, Tamil Nadu State India. With the adding of the car and it's manufacturers test track also PD will expand the fan base to India also.

List of other Indian car manufactures
  1. Mahindra e2o, 2013
  2. Mahindra Scorpio Getaway, 2008
  3. Mahindra Thar, 2010
  4. Maruti Zen Estilo, 2009
  5. Tata Airpod, 2012
  6. Tata Nano, 2008

I really think this is an interesting, ambitious little car. I know it looks like a joke, a bad punchline, but you've gotta admire the dogged determination of one Mr. Ratan Tata to bring this mode of transport to over a Billion people. Respect.:bowdown:
 
This car is cheap and slow like a turtle plus it doesn't look sexy. That's why if it were in GT, it'll be one of the most overused troll cars out there.

The Nano STD? For real?? Hahaha, so what's the high performance model called, the Herpes+ ? :D

But seriously, I know it means standard lol.
 
I would love to take a gander at the sales brochure. And listen to the salesman trying to convince you LX actually means......LUXURY!! On a NANO!! :lol:
 
This is going to be my new troll car if PDI added it to the game. If PD are able to add Land Rover and Jaaaaag then they wouldn't have any problems with adding a TATA.

Unrelated but i just got home from a Tata bus :p
