A home-grown talent who made an electric jeep at home

A car mechanic named Gowtham shared his video in reply where he introduced his own hand-made electric jeep, which he made from scratch
In the video that was posted on Twitter, Gowtham is seen repairing an electric vehicle. Although the entire procedure is not shown, it appears that he built the full-size electric vehicle from the ground up.
Gowtham begins the video with the vehicle in front-wheel drive before quickly switching to four-wheel drive. In his tweet, Gowtham makes no mention of the jeep’s mechanical specifications.
However, the jeep has a very broad appearance and a traditional Mahindra Jeep-like style. Most likely, the mechanic has two motors in the jeep. Both the front and back wheels have their own. He may use a switch on the dashboard to turn on and off the power supply to the rear motor.

His reply went viral within minutes and has gotten more attention than the original tweet to which he replied.
Gowtham video also attracted Anand Mahindra’s attention
He responded to the video and his job request by quoting it along with a caption which said,
“This is why I’m convinced India will be a leader in EVs. I believe America gained dominance in autos because of people’s passion for cars & technology & their innovation through garage ‘tinkering.’ May Gowtham & his ‘tribe’ flourish. @Velu_Mahindra please do reach out to him.”
