Question
FOR HOW MANY HOURS CAN I DRIVE NANO WITHOUT SHUTTING THE ENGINE .......I AM PLANING TO TAKE THE NANO FROM MUMBAI TO JUNAGADH,SOMNATH,DWARKA AND BACK
By Milind 10 October 2010

Dear,
Nano is meant for a pleasant drive within unplanned, overcrowded indian metros(and sabji markets). Inorder to ease the traffic density within, make the passion dream of middle class family's car ride come true. Remember it is not a car meant for easing the burden of our highway.

Answer by SELVAN 10 October 2010

I donot feel any such limitation exists. I am driving my bajaj caliber 2001 made, Agra to Delhi ( 210KM) nonstop frequently. The important thing how much time continiously you can drive and what is you top speed.

Answer by Manish 10 October 2010

till your nano internal combustion engine undergoes spontaneous combustion

Answer by Badman 10 October 2010

Basically Nano is a designed for city commuting and for short journeys. I dont think this is advisable for long stressful highway journey. However if you want to try it out, make your travel with periodic breaks/stops and maintain around 60kms, i think then it should be possible. Avoid night journeys. Happy driving..

Answer by Rejish 10 October 2010

it is not advisable for highways...

Answer by Balaji 10 October 2010

Firstly get a fire Extinguisher and place it in car.

Secondly, couple of bucket full of water.

Thirdly, travel with friends /or atleast 4 people along with you. who can help push the vehicle back to your place.

fourthly, a good mechanic with all equipments.

fifth, 2-3 spare tyres.

I guess, this precaution will work for nano :)

Hi,
In Nano though it can be driven for 200KM at a stretch. However considering its a rear engine car and colling with air is very less as compared to conventional front engine cars, A halt for 15 to 30 mins max after driving 100 to 150KM Max would be a good thing to do. And would certainly help for comfortable usage.
