Tata Nano: Truly a Car for Pokemon Enthusiasts!

Serge Pupko
India is widely regarded as the most dangerous place to drive in. You cannot drive there while drunk, or you'll crash and die. Neither can you drive there after a long day of driving, and no sleep in the last 36 hours, or you'll crash and die. And I have a slight suspicion that if you drive the Nano there, you'll die because a giant monkey will think you're a banana and eat you alive, along with the car!

As far as styling is concerned, you'd think that the Nano is from the land which gave us Pokemon, but it isn't! It's straight from India, and I have another slight suspicion. They must have looked at the Citroen 2CV, and said "yes, that's a great looking car! Let's make one of our own!"

Now, the power isn't there either! It has a 2 cylinder, 623 cc engine producing 0 horsepower! OK, that was a joke, it does produce, and this is my guess, about 10 horsepower. So, it's got an engine that will last your tank of fuel a lifetime! Tata claim it can do 54 miles per gallon. But it does come at a great cost - your dignity. If you buy one of those, everyone, including your mom will call you Picachu!

Let me explain, for those who are normal, and don't have a craze over Pokemon, Picachu is a little monster in an anime show, quite famous among idiots and children under 2 years of age, and can only say one word - "Picachu!" Nope, that's wrong, it can also say "Pica!" The point is, little monsters fight, and sometimes big monsters fight, and whoever wins, well, I couldn't be bothered to find out what happens.

The point is, if anyone outside of India buys one, they'll be right away known as Pokemon freaks. You see one driving by, and you can hold up a big sight that says "Picachu!" and they'll right away know what you're talking about - their car.

There is one thing about it - it's $2,500 new! Or it will be if it hits the US floors. I hope not, but if it does, we'll see real-life Pokemons driving along on the inside lane at a top speed of 5 mph. I can guarantee it won't be very fast. So, you'll have enough time to video-tape them driving it, put it on YouTube, and get a coupe-million views of someone being a complete toy! I think it's a great car, but only to make fun of. I'd like to see one here in the US, but I wouldn't want to drive one. I'd like to die laughing at someone driving that thing among normal, every-day cars because it'll look so out of place, whoever would drive it would wish they were in India, somewhere in a forest, where nobody can see them.

It's a tragedy in automotive history this Nano. I would honestly drive around in a Citroen 2CV than that! and the 2CV is one of the worst cars in the world, and it's French! And, if the 2CV isn't an option, but eating my own testicles is, I'd rather eat my own testicles than own, or even drive one of those!

I've been into cars for a long time now. It started as a little kid when I started drawing cars for fun. My cars, though, did not have guns and fins on them, well, most of them didn't, to say the least. I fo...  View profile
