On a vacation to India, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates was seen riding in an electric auto rickshaw, and the video has gone popular on the internet.

The billionaire posted the video to his Instagram account. He can be seen glancing at himself in the vehicle's mirror at the start of the video. "What has three wheels, zero emissions, and makes no noise? It's known as the Mahindra Treo," the text supers on the video are read aloud. He also explains some of the three features, wheeler saying, "We're going to need to reinvent everything from agriculture to transportation to get on the road to a zero-carbon emissions world."

With a proper suit and tie, the billionaire drove across several roads. Gates seems to like driving the electric vehicle based on his expressions. Surprisingly, the video includes the song "Babu Samjho Ishare" from the film 'Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi.

The post was captioned by the philanthropist, "India's passion for innovation never ceases to amaze. I drove an electric rickshaw, capable of traveling up to 131km (about 81 miles) and carrying up to 4 people. It's inspiring seeing companies like Mahindra contribute to the decarbonization of the transportation industry."
