As electricity is safer and cheaper than the fuel they go for it... This really helps to achieve the moto of going green... - used cars Thu, 06 Jan 2011 00:28:10 +0100 http://ecogeek.org/automobiles/2894-ecogeek-in-bangladesh-spots-low-tech-electric-vehi#comment-29196 Battery powered electric autorickshaws have been in use in Nepal for a few years now. They're a bit larger than the Bangladeshi one shown above, but basically the same. Additionally, Bangladesh greatly improved the air in Dhaka a couple of years ago when they kicked out the two cycle autorickshaws. I happened to be there on when it happened and one could easily tell the difference within a couple of days. (Are you certain about the "small diesel"? I've never encountered one. Most are two and four cycle gas. Some have been converted to natural gas.) - Bob Wallace Fri, 07 Aug 2009 19:16:30 +0100
