There is very interesting business model innovation in the production and sale of the new Tata Nano. Just like a bicycle, the Nano will be sold in kits that are distributed and serviced by people who will assemble it for the consumer. The could remove layers in distribution and service and make the Nano available throughout India without a large dealership network.
That means the Nano was designed for easy assembly by non-professionals. Fascinating.
gawd that is cool. insanely cool. thanks for pointing that out. gawd.
This car is a dream come true for all middle class pepole who can by this "great and good tata you have done your promise "jai hind"
Kindly advise how I can buy TATA Nano in India. I am an NRI, will pay in US Dollars.
If somebody can advise how can i buy this car online.
Now my question would be ...
Is there anything special regarding the dimensions of India's culture (http://www.felgner.ch/2008/01/cultural_production_revolution_.html) that could explain why it was not engineers/ entrepreneurs from Munich, Stuttgart, Prague, Aichi or Detroit that came up with the idea earlier on?
Hello Bruce,
Just have a loook to the following URL:

What's interesting is the next step: Sooner or later, this nano car will be fitted with a new engine: petrol free.
Globally, the industrials who will establish a new business model with vehicles using any other energy source than petrol are sure to be succeszsful.
iam intrested in dristributorship of the new car tatanano,for ontario canada
thank You
It seems like a marriage of Japanese Just-in-Time (JIT) manufacturing concept with Walmart-like supply chain distribution strategy that lead to low costs.
Ford and GM are both making cars in India and they could not come with this low price despite same labour cost advantages. So it is not just about cheap labour.
