Akshaye Khanna goes eco friendly



Electric dude Akshaye Khanna

Akshaye Khanna is definitely the change he wants to see in the world, as he will soon be seen in the streets of Mumbai driving Rewa, a customised electric car. The actor’s concern for the planet and the cause of global warming has made him choo se the option of driving in an electric car for his shoots in Mumbai.

He is said to be quite impressed by the concept of the electric car, which besides meeting individual needs in city mobility, would also help combat some of the social and environmental problems hovering on the horizon. Says Chetan Maini the founder of Rewa, “Globally we see celebrities coming forward and supporting causes they believe in, be it the environment or human rights. It is great to know that an Indian celebrity like Akshaye Khanna is taking steps to help the environment, his decision to choose the Rewa for its environment friendly advantage and great city mobility is a reflection of his commitment to this cause.”

Being a Co2 emission free vehicle, the Rewa is customised for Akshaye’s use and comes with all the accessories that he would need. With its range of 80 km and a maximum speed of 80 km/h, it will ensure the actor gets around the city efficiently.
