Wishing common people to enjoy the comfort of cars and keeping in mind the rising fuel prices, he decided to make his vehicle solar-powered. Speaking to Rising Kashmir he said: &ldquo;Cars like Mercedes, Ferrari, BMW are just a dream for common people. Only a few people are able to afford it while it remains a dream for others to drive such cars and roam in them. I thought of something to give a luxurious feel to the people as well.&rdquo;</p>

The solar panels were obtained from Chennai and these can generate enough power even during low light. Explaining the reason, he said: &ldquo;In Kashmir, most of the time, the weather is gloomy. I used solar panels which can give higher efficiency in low sunlight days.&rdquo; The gullwing doors of the car are also equipped with solar panels while it has regenerative braking as well.</p>
