The Trilux has a range of 138km per charge, has a safety belt for both passengers and driver, ergonomically adjustable driver seat, rear crash guard, 13-inch wheels and a sturdy suspension.

We are also happy to collaborate with the Statue of Unity Area Development and Tourism Governance Authority (SOUADTGA) in giving wings to this vision by our Prime Minister.”
