Stars to drive eco
by CARAZOO INDIA
Global warming is worrying is a very serious concern and is worrying everybody. And with a little contribution and little effort from every individual, such a serious problem can be solved in a very short time. The environment care has been already initiated with Indian car makers rolling out with their electric cars and other options. It is interesting to know that behind their glamorous fame, the Celebes also have a caring and loving heart for nature. Akshaye Khanna, Bollywood actor, who graced the Indian silver screen with his marvelous performance, opted for greener wheels. Akshaye was so impressed with the concept of electric car, a compact car clubbed with environmental-friendly features that he thought of contributing in a small but sensible way to save planet by owning a Maini. Good going Akshaye! Hope this will prompt others to help ��Save our Earth��. Now we can se other companies too joining the eco-friendly drive. Maini REVAi, the sole electric car in the country so far, is about to see some competition soon. Another Indian company, Bavina Industries plans to launch a four-seat electric car.
This compact car will remind you of the Santro or Matiz at first glance and comes with facilities like air conditioning, power windows, centralized locking and a designer dashboard. Bavina claims that the car can reach a maximum speed of 55 km/hr and can run up to 110 kms with the AC on which is about 50 kms more that what the Revai delivers. Without AC, an additional 20 kms can be achieved. The fully loaded version of Bavina��s electric car will cost around Rs 2.5 lakh.
Initially, the company will roll out 5,000 cars by early 2009. After this, it also plans to run eco-friendly taxis in some of the major cities. Those having a deep concern for Environment have one more reason to cheer up.
