World's cheapest car, the Tata Group's Nano that sells for USD 2,500 in India, may find its place in the US garages at double the price when it is commercially launched here, but would still be lowest-priced car in America.

The cheapest vehicle in North America costs about USD 9,000-10,000 "so one could speculate that half of that - over 5,000 dollars - is a possible price point" for the Nano in the US and is still way cheaper than the lowest priced car, a Tata Technologies official told PTI at the Detroit Science Centre here, where the car is on display for the US audience for the first time.
