Dhaka: Automobile giant Tata Motors Ltd has launched its low budget Nano car in Bangladesh, two years after it announced plans to capture the market in the country.

“We are confident that the combination of a perfect product with best-in-the-country service and parts back up will firmly establish the Nano’s footprint in Bangladesh," chairman of Tata’s sole distributor Tata Niloy Group, Matlub Ahmed, said at the Nano’s launching ceremony on Wednesday night.

The four-seater 624cc Tata Nano, known to be one of the world’s cheapest cars, will cost 800,000 taka in Bangladesh.

Ahmed urged the government to withdraw the 45% supplementary duty on cars under 700cc so that the Nanos would be affordable for low-income people. Tata Motors introduced the 624cc Nano as a low-cost car in India in 2008 to attract the middle-class.

The Nano was scheduled to be launched in Bangladesh three years ago but an issue on pricing delayed it. PTI
