Go ... Go ... Go ...

Fond of any machines that zooms? But that you can only dream of it? The low output vehicles that you drive reminds you everyday that you are traveling at quarter the speed of the world? Then this could be a ray of hope.

High speed vehicles are seldom seen in India, not only because it comes at triple the actual price, the law restricts the maximum limit on speed and Engine capacity. Same applies to bikes, Import of a bike more than 600 cc engine capacity will invite heavy taxes.

Everything said and done being a layman we cannot change the rules, but this news might just deserve your attention.
Tata has announced their 3.5 litre V6 330 PS formula concept car, the Indica Silhouette. The baby can do 0 - 100 km in 4.5 seconds and can zoom at 270 kmph (max). They also claim that the space frame is made of aeronautical steel with 17" wheels, adjustable progressive rate pneumatic suspension, data logging system and high-accuracy GPS.

Here it is ..

What's the deal, its just a concept car? Yes agreed! But now atleast Indian companies are thinking about such machines, they might as well hit the market too [Nothing is dont without purpose]. Also if someone has done something like that, others will jump in too. I sincerely belive I will one day get to drive an India made super car, till then I will just enjoy the reading about such things.
