Electric rickshaws (also known as electric tuk-tuks,[1] e-rickshaws,[2] Totos[3] and e-tricycles[4]) are small three-wheeled vehicles powered by an electric battery and motor. These small electric vehicles do not require petroleum fuel like auto rickshaws but still offer greater mobility than traditional pulled rickshaws. This has led to their popularity and use expanding in some cities since 2008.[citation needed] Electric rickshaws are primarily manufactured in India, Bangladesh, Nepal, and China.[5][6]
