A video showing an auto-rickshaw with a transparent roof has caught the attention of social media users, with many jokingly comparing the vehicle to a car fitted with a sunroof. The unusual design appeared to give passengers a clear view of the sky as they travelled through the streets, turning an ordinary auto ride into what the passengers described as a “sunroof experience”.
The clip shows a group of people enjoying their ride in the modified auto-rickshaw, with a woman seen recording a selfie video while travelling with others. The unusual roof quickly became the highlight of the video and prompted a variety of reactions online.

The caption accompanying the post read: “Normal auto ride ❌ Sunroof experience in an auto.”
