Rear engine, rear wheel drive, basically a porsche
cheaper and lighter too
a Volkswagen Beetle.
So basically a P918, shaves lap times right down
actually the p918 is mid engine 4wd, big fail mate
Can't be a VW, the emissions are too low...
To be a proper Indian tuk tuk driver, you need to put the left indicator and turn to the right. ✌
Lmfao true 😂😂😂
😂😂
Put the left indicator on to turn wherever you want and signal with your arm on the right because the right indicator doesn’t work to turn wherever you want
Sangeeth S nah thats more like the middle age woman that rides scooters here
Exactly
The Indian man was so happy and lovely!! 😁😁
We need more people like him
Sad that so many people arent as friendly as him.
Yes cause WE indian daily used to ride or even see it and seeing it in LONDON /UK MAKES HIM HAPPY AS IN INDIA TUK TUK ARE PART OF EVERYONES LIFE
@JAHABER FAZIL1015 It is an autorickshaw in india, auto for short. Tuktuk is what they call in thailand.
Dot head
"This is the most dangerous thing I've ridden, and I've had some ugly girlfriends" OOF LMAO
I don’t get it. People ride other people?
@@yammmit you'll get when you're older haha
Racinq I’m 27 and I don’t understand lol
@@yammmit it's referring to intercourse.
Racinq oh ok, I didn’t know people still did that especially since there are like 7 billion people already but to each their own I suppose.
That Indian man was such a nice and happy guy :)
He probably remembered his childhood, rickshaws are in millions in India... :)
he is the best!
Not all brown people are indians
He made my day. It probably is nostalgic for him.
He looks like fousey tubes dad
thats some proper new idea for FakeTaxi
Tuk Tuk Patrol? lol
You..are a genius
no doors, looks dangerous
get some indians in there
I have no idea what that is ;)
The old indian man, That was really sweet to see him enjoy the trip! :)
Yes cause in INDIA TUK TUK PLAYS A MAJOR PART OF EVERYONES LIFE FROM BIRTH TO OR EVEN GOING TO SCHOOL IN A QUICK TIME INDIA HAS PLENTY OF TUK TUK but UK dosent has seeing it one made him remember his memories in india
@@jahaberfazil OK THANK YOU
Indian rickshaw driver = fast and furious 10🤣
Fast and furious infinity 🤣
Too true, even Uber/RingGo drivers are speedy bois at 80mph in their toyota etios/suzuki swift
Legend has it that guy is still waiting for his ice cream
Iano247 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Iano247 he never got his own ice cream??
lol he probably did 2-5 mins after
😂😂
me when i was a child be like
Tuk tuk are really common in Egypt, you find them every where (especially on the wrong side of the road)
Same here in India 😂
Same here in sri lanka😂
Same here in Pakistan 😞
What do you call them in Egypt?
in italy , in particular of south is the most used vehicle of the farmer and greengrocer's , but in italy have the same engine of the Vespa and is called "Piaggio Ape", this car used (but have a scooter engine) in the video is a bad copy of the piaggio
It needs a limited slip differential for those hard roundabouts.
basically esc...
The newer version has a longer wheelbase which prevented that from happening
These have no balance and itll flip easily
Actually in the Philippines, Bajaj are now common because we have tri wheels too but the Bajaj became the replacement of the most of tri wheels here because of its better fuel economy and it doesn't release black smoke. There are also customized Bajaj here too.
"Have I seen you on TV...?" "Crimewatch" lmao

"it's the most dangerous thing I've ever riden, and I've had some really ugly girlfriends before." I laughed so hard, I shat myself a little!
Poor alex.. wait... did all of his girlfriends have a dick? Omg he went to Thailand before maybe that explains it?
Van PalmerxD google "ladyboys" and you'll understand.
This comment reminded me of the way Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear used to comment on things while riding cars lol
Jimbo that was the joke
1:43 there's a Prius behind them!

I mean that's basically what rickshaw drivers do in India😃😂
Something clarkson would have said lol
So when is it going to get a turbo?
Tuk Tuk racing. I would watch that

Nice HP2 profile pic
That 200cc single cylinder couldn't push a turbine.
They sell turbos for small engines. Checking Garrett Turbo, the GT0632SZ or "GT06" is designed for 100-500cc engines. You can also get Chinese turbos about that size for cheaper, though quality difference may not be worth cheeping out.
About time Carthrottle! Been waiting for this video for too long
+MJ Dragon Soz!
Carthrottle just replied to me ! Day officially made
The legend was real! There's actually a video about a Tuk Tuk!!
Use the auto rickshaw every day as my primary means of public transport!!!!
Oh, and may I mention that it is because of them that driving on public roads in India becomes quite a nightmare!!
Even the policemen could not have cared less if they break traffic rules.
Still, best mode of public transport in urban India if you are in a rush!!
+Car Throttle regards from India
Had a really great experience after taking a ride from malad to bandra by auto rickshaw:
First thing - they are cheap compared to other transport.
Second thing - you actually enjoy fresh air and seats are comfortable too, you don't feel packed like cars which usually makes your tummy upset.
Third thing - it runs on CNG so very efficient & also it can go through very narrow ways unlike other four wheelers due to which you reach your destination quickly.
*Damn it's a really great invention, wanted to know who was that genius guy who invented such a useful transport?*
Its a good invention.. India has taxis too but people in certain parts love travelling in autos like mumbai...
@@starscream1457 because they cut through traffic easily ❤️
Actually Italians invented it. Piaggio to be precise.
Invented by Italian!
Imagine getting a speeding ticket with that 😂😂
@Vaas Montenegro ya. The rickshaw walas here think that it's a two wheeler due to the handle and drive like maniacs.
@@asitadkar4976 a much safer two wheeler
that means it was a dangerous ride
At 3:31 bless that man he was so so nice 😋
Yeah that man is so nice I would love him to be my grandfather
Most of us Indians are like that by nature. Excited, talkative...
Indian culture .... Indian grandfather is very nice.
This guy is legit funny. Its like Top Gear reborn! Subscribed!!!

@@pl2247 we used to have those tuktuk with Vespa engines here, the government banned the older ones and told everyone to get a new one with better emmisision standards

2:49 nice Subaru 22b!
Yeah, there was a 3rd gen MR2 as well! Well, those are usually reffered to as 1st gen Imprezas, the 22b is extremely rare and I'm pretty sure is Japan exclusive.
+faisal3398 surprisingly enough most of the 22B's built went to England
That's not a 22b, it's just a standard WRX coupe
Yeah, I'm not too sure about that last point. I figured as it usually is, Japanese manufacturers make exclusive and limited models to their own country only.
+faisal3398 it may not be true but I've heard it a quite few times before.

but did the dude get his ice tho
ice cream* :)
no, seriously, did he ?
+CWplayer Alex replied in the comments above that he did but accidentally ordered him the wrong ones. It certainly looks like it on the video which makes it a little bit funny but he is not such a dickhead as on videos so he obviously sorted that out nicely with the guy later ;)

I'm just in love with Tuk Tuks too. It's a lovely way to travel, we've just filmed one a Tuk Tuk ride in Porto. It's a perfect way to travel isn't it, so it's great to see them in many major cities around the world. Thanks for sharing it.
-How are you doing today?
-Haha!
Greatest conversation ever.
I am a car guy but I noticed something...
Did he just bought that man a free ice cream?

In indonesia its called bajaj too, but we pronounce the last j as y, so its like bajay, since were an ex dutch colony....
Anju Daniel or bmw they said bajay merah warnanya
Well bajaj is company not a name
Bajaj is a family name , founded by Jamnalal Bajaj ,now Rahul Bajaj and Bajaj family owns the business
@@hj2711 i know, but we call the TVS made one, with Bajaj too lol
@Net Play i know, but we call the tvs one with bajaj too lol
You bring a much needed smile in our stressed faces☺️ thank you
in my country (indonesia), that same tuktuk you have there (RE Bajaj), we use it as taxi, same as india. they make a custom front and back door and custom side windshield to make it saver and rainproof. i think you should make one for yours, it's just nice
it would have to be removable. the experience of riding around the country on a nice day is amazing.
here in colombia is used on small towns where riding a taxi is expensive, you pay less than 1usd and they get you anywhere
Mantap vroh
Same in EGYPT 🇪🇬
Ayy fellow indo right here
Should have borrowed Colin Furze's 660cc tuk tuk
brad vincent I live in India and this is called auto in our country.its very popular for transportation. Google autos in India if you want.have a nice day!
your profile picture is fucked mate
Subscribed for the daring attitude you took towards running it. It's quite an unstable vehicle but the cheapest mode of transportation
watching you ride puts a smile on my face
I'm an Indian and I commute via such auto-Rickshaw. However, I throughly enjoyed watching this video and I'm probably gonna see TukTuk from a fresh joyful perspective tomorrow!

I really thought he would drive Mr. Furzes Tuk Tuk in this Video
Film Now Edit Later Yeah, that guy!

I think this was one of the first ever videos from carthrottle i watched where i not only enjoyed the content because it was fun, but because of the reflection of character here.
Great video, nice people, and a nifty little vehicle! I had fun just watching you drive it! It looks like real fun.
Is it available to buy in UK? Or UK guys import it?? I have seenmany videos of auto of UK... None of jtaly, none of germany but onky of UK in europe continent
Much have been nostalgic for that Indian couple
You will go ape shit crazy with the professional rickshaw drivers in India...They race it through crowds LIKE A BOSS...some place they take it offroading while carrying huge loads...
You should watch Bald N Bankrupt go in a rickshaw, 'India Hotel Hunt: Jodhpur'.
A small size electric Tuk Tuk is a very good saving to cover upto 10 to 20 kms ride around towns
Here in the Netherlands you can get many different versions of it. There's one for moped license with a scooter steer, there's one for car license with a scooter steer, abd there's one for both licenses with a car steer. There's also a bigger pickup like version but its only for car lincense. I love these things and am definitely planning on buying one as a project once.
Finally! But I've probably seen the whole video already XD
now, put a 1l turbocharged engine on it with upgraded gearbox and bigger tyre...
L
just forgetting one thing good brakes if you like your life otherwise that should do it
You forgetting one crucial thing! Painting the brakes red!
If you're going to the track with this, good luck with going on cornering
Nice to have as a rarity, becomes a total pain if they start replicating.
"Have I seen you before?"
"Yeah, Crime Watch!"
Jesus Christ Alex, how did I go so long in my life without you?
Like a boss *engine shuts down* that got me rolling xD
Loved it ! ...

"This is the most dangerous thing I've ever ridden before, and I've dated some pretty ugly women"
Absolutely classic. Best quote I've heard in a long time.
He said the same thing for the motorised wheelbarrow
Put a Hayabusa engine in it...
Yes! Maybe add a roll cage and go racing in it.
and add a turbo + antilag?
Colinfurze put a 600 from a CBR in it im pretty sure
A roll cage? Might as well make some extra wheels on the side then. And on the roof.
Need to lower it and increase the track width.Should help with stability.
Just an FYI - you can only drive one on a full car license if you passed your car test before Jan 19th 2013. If you passed your car test after that you need to have a full motorcycle license to drive any powered-three-wheeler on U.K. roads. Seems like I'm being a picky git, but if any of your younger viewers go get one and don't have the right license....that get's expensive for them. (You can check by going to the DVLA "What can I drive" website - google it)
Oh, and welcome to the wacky world of trikes... it can only get madder from here!
Modern driving tests don't let you qualify for trikes?
Re Nope, 'fraid not... from DVLA website;
1What kind of vehicle do you want to drive
Motor tricycle (categories A and A1)
2Do you have a full car driving licence issued before 19 January 2013?
No
You’ll need a category A1 motorbike licence to ride motor tricycles up to power output 15kW, and a category A motorbike licence to ride trikes with a power output more than 15kW
Re gov . uk /vehicles-can-drive/y/motor-tricycle-categories
great logic by the DVLA here... the newer, harder test lets you drive fewer types of vehicles
Looks like great fun. I want one! Only in the summer though. Looks like things could be pretty grim in the winter.
Absolutely amazing
imagine putting a b18 and turbo and nos Vtech+Turbo+NOS+Tuk tuk =death machine

didnt he put a 600cc engine doe?

Dear Alex, I am from Pakistan and during my childhood in the 90's, we used to have these blue Piagio Rackshaws.
They were powered by a tiny 250c.c two stroke motor...noisy and smokey as hell but they had character!! They were essentially Piagio Vespas with a body strapped to it!!
Sadly the 2 stroke Piagios were phased out, replaced by newer but bland and boring Chinese 4 stroke models! The Chinese 3 wheelers do not have the same character as their previous Italian counterparts!!
This clip was so cheerful and the Car Throttle channel is the most cheerful, fun and best and Ethan is such a gem of a person!!! 🙂
P.S: One of my bucket list dreams is to buy one of these 3 wheelers and put a race bike engine like from a CBR600 in it!!!!!! 😅
"It is the most dangerous thing i`ve ever ridden and i had some really ugly GFs before" - i lost it there :D
Omg southall, I don't live far from there

It was originally produced in Italy by Piaggio as a 3 wheel Vespa, under the name of Ape.
Vespa means Hornet, while Ape is a Bee.

the legendary ape piaggio, even more legendary than the vespa, we use to drive in our countryside since we was 14 (50 cc version) helping father's with farm need, using the huge amount of space available back. This one comes from 50's need for tourist in location like amalfi capri, very narrow road, than exported worldwide. Another italian masterpiece :-)
I Live In India I See Tons of those in taxi livery they are very inexpensive means of transport you can travel 6 kms for half a dollar

While you can buy them in the UK they are just under £5k, which is hardly inexpensive (you can get a presentable European or Japanese supermini for that money)
Maybe in UK you will look unique and anti mainstream with a tuk-tuk, but in Indonesia you will look poor
Same in India... Yea Indonesia And India with the same mindset... Love From India
