After announcing the 2013 Tata Nano at the Tata Horizonext yesterday, we were in for a pleasant surprise. Tata showed us four new and different body kits for the Nano (also available for the 2012 Tata Nano) and here is a comprehensive look at all of them.
About the kit
When the 2013 Nano goes on sale, you can specify these body kits on the LX and the CX variants (we're not all too sure about the Standard variant). The name of the kit will be displayed as a badge on the front fender.
There is no change inside the car when you specify these kits. If you already own a 2012 Nano (in LX or CX trims), you can still get these kits. In which case your 2012 Nano will also see the addition of the dual glovebox.

The Nano Jet is the first among the body kits available for the small car. Tata says it's a 'sporty and competitive look that intensifies the energy of the Nano'.
You get a raced themed body decal along with a bonnet stripe while the wheels are V-spoked alloys with a silver finish. A 'Sport' bodykit including the side skirts and the bumper lips are available on the LX variant. Jet marquee badging completes the package.
Prices in INR: 27,000 for the LX 2013, 28,500 for the LX 2012; 15,000 for the CX 2013, 16,500 for the CX 2012.

The 2013 Nano Remix is the second of the four kits available. This may appeal to the more feminine as Tata says it's a 'hip and trendy Nano featuring chic, tasteful color tones'.
Nevertheless, you still get the V-spoke alloys in a silver finish. The bodykit on the Remix is called 'Style' and comes with side skirts on the LX variant only. A bonnet stripe and air-flow side decals with 'Remix' badging complete the package.
Prices in INR: 27,000 for the LX 2013, 28,500 for the LX 2012; 15,000 for the CX 2013, 16,500 for the CX 2012.

This is my personal favorite, especially in the color shown here I think this Nano looks outstanding! Tata says it's 'designed to evoke the modern and premium feel of a show-car' and while that may sound like marketing talk, there is no denying the genuine kitted-up look of this Nano.
The V-spoke alloys get a graphite finish while you get a piano-black contrast-finished roof (on a Nano!!) along with the air-ducts. The other body decals are included as well.
Prices in INR: 19,000 for the LX 2013, 20,500 for the LX 2012; 15,000 for the CX 2013, 16,500 for the CX 2012.

The last of the body kits and probably not the best name for one, if I may add. Tata says its 'cute and youthful', you know what that means.
The V-spoke alloy wheels are finished in a body-color matching color.
Prices in INR: 15,000 for the LX and CX 2013, 16,500 for the LX and CX 2012;
