Don't get all excited yet Ratan Tata says -- it's just an idea -- but last week his company introduced a concept car for the most "package efficient" four-seater in the world at the 81st Geneva Motor Show.
The Tata Pixel, a cousin of the innovative Rs 100,000 Tata Nano, is just over three meters in length and has a turning circle radius of just under that amount.
"There is an opportunity in Europe for a city car, which is optimal in space, maneuverability and environment-friendliness. The Tata Pixel is a reflection of Tata Motors' idea of what such a car should be," says Carl-Peter Forster, managing director and group CEO of Tata Motors.
When the Hindustan Times asked Forster's boss, Ratan Tata, if the Pixel could meet the demands of Indian consumers, he said, "It may."
Indian auto blogs reckon the Pixel may feature in New Delhi's Auto Expo in 2012 and transform into a production model between the Tata Nano V2 which is due for launch this year and the Tata Indica Vista.
