GENEVA: Japanese car maker Nissan will launch an entry-level small car, developed in partnership with Ashok Leyland, by 2014 that could be priced around Rs 2 lakh to Rs 4 lakh.

"We are working on multiple options of price-entry vehicles for the Indian market. One of them is being developed with engineering department of Ashok Leyland. This car will be launched around 2014," Nissan Motor Executive Vice President Andy Palmer told PTI at the 82nd Geneva Motor Show here.

The company will introduce the small car in the fiercely competitive and volume-driven price range of Rs 2 lakh to Rs 4 lakh, he added.
