Sridhar Vembu captioned the photographs, "I am thrilled that my brand new electric vehicle, Montra from the Murugappa Group, has arrived. Quick pickup and good suspension. I'm really enjoying it!"

"Electric three-wheelers are an amazing and safe alternative to scooters and motorcycles. I like to refer to it as the family scooter. Easy to get about in small areas, easier to park... E-autos will eventually become popular in the consumer sector. I hope the Montra gets through there," he said.

Montra Electric Super Auto

The Montra Super Auto EV features two battery pack options, a range of more than 160 kilometers, and a top speed of 55 kilometres per hour. 

The Montra Electric Super Auto is a fantastic choice if you're looking for a reliable and affordable electric three-wheeler in India. 

Sridhar Vembu also owns a Tata Nexon EV, but he prefers the electric three-wheeler for trips under 10 kilometers.

Social media users had different reactions to Sridhar Vembu's post. While one person commented, "Unfortunately, vehicles are considered outdated and not aspirational to most people as a personal transportation. Only those with a dual purpose (commercial and personal) may pursue it."

Another added, "I tried to convince my grandson (8 years old and born interested) to see it as a chariot, but other elders in the family discouraged him from dreaming. Meanwhile, foreigners organize "tuk tuk" rallies."
