INDIA: Two types of auto-rickshaws in India. In older versions, the engines were below the driver’s seat, while in newer versions engines are in the rear.   in Delhi there also used to be a variant (now outlawed) powered by a Harley-Davidson engine called the phat-phati. As of 2018 India has about 1.5 million battery-powered, three-wheeled rickshaws on its roads. Some 11,000 new ones hit the streets each month.

MADAGASCAR: Known as “bajaji” in the north and “tuk-tuk” or “tik-tik” in the east
