Tara Tiny @ Rs 99K is the world's cheapest car!

March 17, 2008
Having obtained a management degree from Columbia University, Ganguly's mission has always been fighting pollution. He specialised in renewable energy.

"Way back in 1994, I thought of zero-fuel car but could not launch one as the economics did not back me up then," he said. Crude oil was $10 per barrel then. But now that it has crossed $100 per barrel," said Ganguly.

"Now, people are driving fuel cars at an average of Rs 6 per km. One can drive our cars at 40 paise per km."

*100 paise = Re 1
