Alongside the CNG (compressed natural gas) and diesel versions that have already been confirmed, the 2013 Nano is expected to receive an 800cc engine. The 0.8-liter unit for the Nano is expected to arrive on the market in about one year from now.

The Nano revamp should also bring certain design and equipment upgrades, as Tata wants its affordable car to be able to face the rising competition. We are talking about vehicles that have appeared o will arrive as a reaction to the Nano. The list of names includes the Maruti Alto, Hyundai Eon, as well as the future propositions from Datsun and Renault, which should be launched in 2014.

The Nano will probably keep its current 624cc unit, which should be used for the entry-level model. As for the all-important pricing, the 800cc version of the Nano is expected to retail for Rs. 2.5 lakhs ($4,550 or€3,450).
