How Do BUVs Help Women?

BUVs are for rural areas where public transportation is infrequent. Just as the automobile enabled men and eventually women in developed countries, BUVs enable women in rural areas of developing countries. The possibilities are endless and their common denominator is freedom…freedom to commute to education or a better job, freedom to get medical attention, freedom to buy from the best market, freedom to visit relatives, freedom to expand a business, freedom to help the community or friends. Unlike a motorcycle, a BUV provides a woman the option of taking her children with her. In contrast to a car, the BUV enables this function at one-fifth the cost of a purchasing a used car.
