Coming to the safety concerns - The engine is located at the rear of this car. As a result, the load on the front wheels is low. Hence drum brakes at the front are provided instead of disc brakes. After the fire incidents, a lot of concerns were raised surrounding the Tata Nano's safety. On its official FAQ page, the officials have now shared that Tata Motors conducted investigations by a team of internal and international experts and found that the reasons for the incidents were limited to a few Tata Nano cars. The experts noticed instances of additional foreign electrical equipment having been installed or foreign material left on the exhaust system in these cars. Tata Nano Twist has been made more robust with enhanced features in the car’s electrical and exhaust system.
