With the implementation of BS6 emission norms in April 2020, Tata Motors discontinued the Nano small car and the Safari Storme SUV in the country. Touted to be the cheapest car in the world, the car failed to generate volume for the carmaker in the country. The car rolled off the production line in May 2018.

The small hatchback was offered with a 624cc twin-cylinder petrol engine that was good for 38bhp and 51Nm. Power was sent to the rear wheels via a 4-speed manual or AMT gearbox.

According to a fresh report in the media, the domestic automaker might be considering re-launching the Tata Nano with an electric drive. The Tata Nano EV is likely to see significant changes in underpinning, suspension setup and tyres.

So, it came as no surprise when a delighted Wilson commended Vistara for achieving a lot ever since the 51:41 Singapore Airlines and Tata group JV commenced operations in November 2013.
