Monsoon-ready: how to protect your e‑rickshaw in the rainy season

By Bandhu Motors · 8 Aug 2026 · 4 min read


Rain means more passengers, and more risk to your vehicle. A little care now saves a big repair later.

Avoid deep water

Do not drive through water that reaches the wheel hubs. Water can reach the motor, controller and wiring. Take the longer dry road.

Keep the charging point dry

Charge under a roof, keep the plug and socket dry, and never charge with wet hands.

Check brakes after heavy rain

Wet brakes grip less. Test them slowly after driving through rain.

Look after the paint

Wash off mud and dry the body. Small scratches let rust start, so get them touched up.

Keep curtains and seats dry

Dry seats and curtains quickly so they do not rot or smell. Passengers notice.

Key takeaways

Skip water deeper than the wheel hubs
Charge only in a dry, covered place
Test brakes after rain
