Battery Powered Rickshaw
A rickshaw is an iron body resting on three small wheels, one in front and two on its rear. It also has a small cabin for the driver in the front and has seats usually for two persons in its rear.
Auto rickshaws are used in both rural and urban areas but it proved to be the main cause of both noise and air pollution. So the solution is to build a solar-powered, electric battery operated Rickshaws. It is called the ELECSHA.
Bluebird Electric Racing Ltd contributed a large part for funding the research and building of a lightweight solar powered rickshaw which has the ability to replace the millions of fossil and pedal rickshaws that operate throughout Asia.
Modernized rickshaws emit zero pollution. They are also easier to maneuver. Very economical and need no regular part replacements. Battery powered rickshaws seem most popular as the battery can be charged overnight whilst a solar powered rickshaw is known to travel 160 km on an overcast day. It’s definitely a very practical means of transportation.
Here are some basic features of an Elecsha: It can take two passengers at speeds of 35-40 km/hr; it can go to 60-70 km per battery charge; and it uses 40% less energy than petrol and diesel powered auto rickshaws.
They could override the use of the family car all over the world. It’s already been done in some small Asian cities. Prices are much more affordable than any car. Most battery operated rickshaws ranges from $7000, even less second-hand.
