India Creates the World's Cheapest Car

Although it's not very attractive (in my opinion!), it'll get you from point A to B and only costs around $2,500 brand new...I'll take it!

    This car looks just like the SmartCar! You know, all those tiny cars that lots of Europeans drive? I like it, and the price and mileage is pretty ideal.

    what interests me most about this is that it's gonna put a lot more people on wheels, which will definately lead to more congestion in cities, and a lot more pollution. but if it's able to bring a lot of economic development and advancement, then it's probably a good thing, on balance.

    I fell this would be very opular in Europe, as it resembles vehicles already driven there. Do you think it will ever become a hit in the US?

    @whitney miller:
    the car fails to meet EU emissions/safety standards.
