Geneva: Tata Motors has advanced the booking date of Nano, touted as the world's cheapest car, in India by three weeks to coincide with its commercial launch on March 23 in the home country.
"The bookings will start from March 23 and delivery will start from the first week of April," a senior Tata Motors official told PTI at the Geneva Motor Show that opened here on Tuesday.
On February 26, Tata Motors, India's largest auto maker, had said Nano would be launched on March 23, while bookings would start from the second week of April.
When asked about media reports that the first lot of the car would be reserved only for celebrities and VIPs, the official said: "No, the car is not scheduled to be delivered only to the celebrities."
The company today unveiled the European version of the small car at the Geneva Motor Show, which could be commercially launched by 2011.
