Nepal Transportation

In Kathmandu, Nepal, you dont see luxurious cars like BMW, Merc, Audi, VW etc. The main mode of transport in Kathmandu is public taxis and the size of the taxi are very small.

The car used for taxi are mainly Suzuki Maruti 800 which are assembled in India.

Does this car look familiar??? Perodua MYVi. Yes, It is the same car but it is known as Daithatsu Sirion.

Look at this antique van still on the road.

And this van in quite a bad condition. It is difficult to maintain a good vehicle due to the pollution and poor road conditions.
