Electric tuk-tuk!


Tokyo-based Terra Motors has introduced an electric tuk-tuk that would save drivers money almost immediately.

The initial focus for rollout is in the Philippines, thanks to some funding from the Asian Development Bank. The Asian Development Bank (ADB) is providing $300 million towards a ground breaking project that will replace 100,000 gasoline-burning tricycles in the Philippines with clean, energy efficient electric tricycles, or E-Trikes.
