Tata Motors has announced that they will hike the prices of Nano by Rs 9000 on an average across all variants in response to the sharp increase in raw materials such as steel and rubber over the last two years. The company is intending to launch a deluxe version of the Nano in India by 2012 which will feature a larger, more powerful engines, power steering, air bags and ABS. The deluxe version would cost much more than the current LX variant and if Tata Motors can keep the price below Rs 3 lakh, it could put a cat among the pigeons in the luxury small car segment.

It is equiped with a reversing camera and 2.7 inch monitor integrated in the rear view mirror. A “Puccini” sound system with digital signal processor also finds its place in the dashboard.
Bugatti Veyron is assembled by hand at the company’s headquarters in Molsheim, Alsace. Only 150 limited units will be built, of which 40 cars have already gone exclusively to the registered Bugatti customers.
