Anand Mahindra was all praise for Singh and his invention. In his tweet he said, “This has been doing the #Signal rounds the last few days. Not the first device in the world to motorise a cycle. But this is a) An outstanding design—compact & efficient b) Rugged-loved the working in mud, making it an off-roader! c) Safe d) Savvy—a phone charging port!” Also Read - Tata Tigor EV price increased by Rs 25,000: Check prices of all variants

Mahindra also pointed out that EV makers should take notice of this innovation. He emphasized the ease of use and the grass-root application of the invention. In his tweet he said, “But what I appreciate most is his empathy and passion for those hard working people for whom the humble cycle is still the primary mode of transport. It’s a good reminder for all automakers focusing on disruptive EVs that THIS EV revolution may be the most important one.”

Mahindra went as far as saying that he would love to be an investor in the technology. Even if it is a product that is not inevitable to succeed commercially or be substantially profitable.
