Tata Motors attributed those to a faulty electrical switch and said it had changed suppliers and done additional tests to rule out a recall or redesign. The four-seater nano can travel up to 105 kph and gets 23.6 kilometers per liter. The Nano does not have air bags or antilock brakes – neither of which is required in India .

Incidents like this would tarnish the nano brand as people would be more and more concerned about buying the car. Some of the initial fears was that Nano is a light card and it would topple if accelerated to high speeds, less safety for passengers in case of an accident etc. But how safe is a nano? Time will tell!

The Honda Civic Hybrid would cost Rs 21.5 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). The import duty on a completely built unit (CBU) is 104 per cent. HOnda will import the CBU from Japan, where it produces the hybrid car for its global markets. However, it is also exploring alternatives through which it can import the engines and parts and bring the car as a semi-knocked down unit.

The Civic Hybrid would be offered with a 1.3 litre petrol engine. From the time of the start-up and acceleration, both the engine and the motor function together. Only when the car is being driven at a high speed that the motor does not work and the vehicle is run on the engine. When the car is idling , the petrol engine automatically stops and the battery keeps the vehicle running, saving fuel. The car when being driven at 40-50 km per hour, operates only on the battery offering maximum fuel efficiency.Civic Hybrid offers a rare combination of being environmentally friendly, fuel efficient and also having a high fun-to-drive quotient.

According to the company, the fuel efficiency of Civic Hybrid is in the range of 19-23 km a per litre when measured with the existing petrol based model, that offers approximately 15 km per litre.

The Civic Hybrid system has been developed so you don’t have to do anything different. The battery is automatically charged when the car is slowing, travelling downhill or braking. The vehicle is able to re-capture energy which is normally lost through friction when braking and use this energy to re-charge the battery. Remember, when the battery is not in use it’s being recharged by the electric motor. There is an override in the system that means you will always have at least 20% power in the battery. So you’ll find there’s no need to plug your car in to charge at the end of the day.

Honda civic Hybrid is available in the following Colors

Alabaster Silver Metallic
Galaxy Gray Metallic
Magnetic Pearl
Opal Silver Blue Metallic
Taffeta White
