Generally speaking, EVs tends to be thought as mobility for European countries or America, but this is totally different, which is sensation.
The market sources believe that the Japanese leading company of electric scooter “Terra Motors” has come to we recognise as world’s first mass production of Electric 3-wheeler.
The company not only produce Electric scooters, but also electric 3- wheelers. In Asia, 3-wheeler market has expanded rapidly, because it is cheap and freight is large, compare to cars. For example, in India , the production number of three-wheel taxis is increasing twice by these five-year, and the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh also shows the same transition.
Moreover, it is thought that electric-ization of the three-wheel taxi in Asia progresses quickly from aggravation of air pollution and the rise of constant shortage of gasoline and a price. For example, in India, gasoline cost has increased also 2.5 times by these ten-year Hazama.
The company’s prototype was completed lately, and they are aiming at world top share acquisition within 2014, the company will advance to Asian countries, and plan to establish branch officein India this year.
