| Auto Tata Motors Unveils $2,500 "Nano" in New Delhi
Funny, I had the same feeling when the rental company gave me a Cobalt.Joking aside, it's got an all-aluminum engine and sheetmetal body. Frame wasn't stated, but if it can pass the crash testings at city speeds, it's surely some manner of metal. And I'd wager even if it's a "poor" car, it's a fair sight safer and more luxurious than the scooters it's aiming to replace.And for $2,500 - I'd buy one for a city commuter, though I'd be more interested in removing the back seats in favour of a "wagon" style configuration as stated by Nightskyre. .
Some nice ice at Holidayfest
Perhaps you're interested in watching champion ice skaters, or just want to keep your preschooler's rump from landing on the ice. Either way, Akron's Holidayfest can provide the opportunity. Among the flurry of activities downtown is the opening of the largest seasonal skating rink in Ohio about 8 p.m. Friday after the Holiday Lighting Spectacular. Skating on the 80-by-120-foot rink is free. Skate rental is $2. Again this year, members of the Chemnitz, Germany, Skating Club, famous for producing world-class skaters, including Olympian Katarina Witt, will entertain with spins and jumps. Following their performances at 12:30, 3:30 and 7 p.m. Dec. 7 and 8 and again at 12:30 and 3:30 p.m. Dec. 9, the skaters will offer informal skating instructions. If your little one is new to the skating scene, a preschool skate is being offered at 1:30 p.m.
