Although Tata Motors has recently been talked about for its
air-powered City Cat, the next
big small thing to roll off of its assembly lines may only be fit for the fearless. The reason, interestingly enough, is not that the automaker is aiming to release a comparatively small four-door
car for under $3,000, but that "much of it will be [made of]
plastic." Reportedly, the company "has yet to release [an official] name for the car or even a sketch of what it might look like," and moreover, the "low manufacturing costs in developing countries" were pinned as a primary cause for the incredible affordability. And you thought driving around in a $30,000 sedan
made entirely in China would be frightening.
