The tuk-tuk, a three wheeled vehicle that is powered by an internal combustion engine has been around in Sri Lanka for many years. The noise and pollution emitted from the tuk-tuk are becoming more of a problem with every passing day, and an electric tuk-tuk would be much better suited to use in Sri Lanka because it doesn't produce any emissions which will help reduce the environmental impact of this vehicle.
The electric tuk-tuk would be perfect for Sri Lanka because it does not produce any emissions which helps protect the environment from damage by cars, trucks or motorcycles on our roads. This is a very large problem in the country as there are thousands of tuk-tuks being used each day and they all release lots of pollution into the air around us. The noise that these vehicles make can also disturb people living nearby if their homes are located directly near busy roads but with an electric tuk-tuk this would no longer be an issue either. Electric tuk tuks will create much less noise than petrol powered ones due to them having zero engine sound when working properly so you could see many more residents choosing to opt for a convenient and economical vehicle like a tuk-tuk rather than a more traditional petrol car.
If you think accessories for electric tuk tuks may be a problem, then don’t worry. If these types of vehicles ever make their way to Sri Lanka, then there will certainly be suppliers and vendors who will get down the right spare parts and accessories and have them available for users. You will even be able to get these accessories such as tyres online making it more convenient. Even currently there are so many suppliers of three-wheel tyres online in Sri Lanka, and it will not be any different if electric vehicles come to stay.
