Anand: A brand new Tata Nano car which was on its way to be delivered in Vadodara, caught fire near Boriyavi village of the district on Wednesday, said Anand district police. The incident took place on National Highway 8, when a fleet of eleven Tata Nano cars were being driven to a dealer in Ahmadabad to be delivered in Vadodara. This is the second instance of a brand new Nano catching fire after one such instance was reported from Mumbai last month when a newly purchased car reduced to ashes while being driven home from the showroom. Similar incidents were found since the company launched Nano. According to police, one of the Nano cars, which was in the middle the fleet, caught fire in its rear portion. The police said that the driver of the car was safe.
