Bangalore seems to be slowly turning into a hub of alternative vehicle technology. After the Reva electric car comes the Cosmic electric scooter, devised by the city-based Eko-Cosmic. The battery-operated two-wheeler, Eko claims, can run 50 kms on a single charge, the cost of which is a mere Rs 3. Priced at Rs 25,000, the scooterette runs on a gel battery that requires no maintenance (but needs replacement every four years). The vehicle comes with a charger that plugs into domestic points and does the job in four hours. Armed with tax breaks from the local government, Eko plans to make Cosmic a popular city vehicle. Also in the pipeline: a Maruti Omni-like electric car for Rs 1.5 lakh and an electric three-wheeler.

The blog was very good and finally we can see an energised future. Also if possible we would like to have the contact address and other details so that we too can share our expertise and knowledge with the company which may help out in producing the vehicle.
