The visionary gleam of the automobile designer Dilip Chhabria for making Nano into a crore-worth car. The 623cc engine will be replaced by 1600cc and there will be doubled speed of 200km/h aided by a 7-speed triptronic gear box. The exteriors will enthrall with gull-wing configuration doors opening towards the sky, resembling the Lamborghini and Ferrari.
The refined car will carry biometric door handles exclusive for the owner’s entry. The aerodynamics is enhanced with the removal of xenon lights and LED clusters in addition to polycarbonate glazing. The width of the alloy wheels are increased from 12” to 15” to be christened as the world’s smallest sports car. The refresh in Nano will flow with a panoramic winds-screen and latest gizmos occupying the interiors (found in Ambierod). There will be a mobile LCD screen and customized instrument panel.
The Ambierod, is known for its fanciful customers who bought it before the concept exposure in 2008 and a Dubai-based NRI got it for Rs4 crore. Chhabria took a leaf out of this Ambierod and tried his talent with Nano while retaining the size but changing it to 2-seater (from 5 –seater). The refined car seems to be ideal for long drive as it is fixed with a rear view camera to snatch clippings. Chhabria was credited for his transformation of an Ambassador to a 3-seat coupe, in the Auto Expo 2008 (re collecting American Hotroids bikes).
