With Tata’s Nano car project in a turmoil, Oreva Super, an electric car has the potential to be the country's first one lakh car, made by the Ajanta Group, a Saurashtra-based clockmaker, is planning to give serious competition to the Tata Nano.
Though the Oreva Super was in the pipeline for a while, sources say production at its plant in Kutch recently moved into top gear.
As the Nano shifted from Bengal to Gujarat last week, the Oreva Super was heading for a showroom in Rajkot under wraps last week.
Company officials refused to speak on camera but the Rajkot dealer is enthusiastic.
"This is the first model out on display. I can't share any more details about it as we have been asked to be tight-lipped for sometime. It is just a fabulous car and very economic in these days of rocketing fuel prices," said Yogesh Tank, Oreva Automobiles, Rajkot.
"Obviously, it's pricing is so strategic that it will compete with Tata's Nano," he added.
Even before Ratan Tata has set up the Nano shop in Rajkot, he already seems to have competition.
