Finally Bangkok’s Tuk-tuks Go Green – and Silent!

Rattling tuk-tuks transporting tourists and locals through Bangkok’s heavy traffic are iconic and one of Thailand’s secret trademarks.

What is it like to ride in an electric tuk-tuk? And what do the tuk-tuk drivers have to say about it?

What do you think about the fact that the rattling three-wheelers are going electric? Will you miss the classic sound of the tuk-tuks?
