Except for the wipers, it looks like the real thing except for the finish !

Man, one needs to watch out!

What will it be used for?? Golf carts!!!!????
And I suppose, it will be electric powered.

Just imagine, It's not just us. Even Germans are affected by the Red Dragon!!

Mahindra was trying to release a 6 seater electric rickshaw called "Bijlee" in Mumbai and other metros. Unfortunately it ran into some problems - namely the rickshaw unions as usual objected.

Also it had trouble climbing flyovers

Reva have already copied the Smart - albeit less blatantly and through DC (Design Copy).

But Reva is going global, mainly in the UK in the form of the Gee Whizz. See several in a week in Central London.
